Wilson being the question mark. Obviously Pope as well but he's injured. Barnes maybe but he's about as new to them as Diaby is for us.

Barnes is on the bench, has he even trained with them? Are they hard up for players?
Eddie Howe said he hadn't trained with them. Seems odd to include him really.

We look so well coached now

It’s notable how machine-like the team movement is - like everyone knows what to do in any given situation. How novel.

The commentator on the stream I'm watching is hawking Watkins off to other clubs. Just describe the match you doughnut.

So you’re saying we don’t just roll up our socks or look for that bit of magic?

I don't know who the American commentator is but it's so refreshing to hear someone who doesn't have any bias. Just straightforward comment on what he sees.

I know it’s only 1 game but, we look a yard or two quicker than the Mags. We obviously like playing in 86F heat and we’re not going to get that in Newcastle in 3 weeks time.

Hehe, we are going to annoy a lot of other teams/fans next season. A lot. And isn't it wonderful. Sucker them in then jab with the rapier thrust.
