That would have been a superb goal by Buendia. Just wide

He looks stronger this pre-season.

italian clubs are usually a fair way behind ours in their pre-seasons.

they start on the 19th so only 1 week after us.

We've been excellent so far, completely outclassing them.

Really? They pass the ball around so comfortably. I look forward to the day we can do that on a consistent basis. They're counter attacking and getting offside at every opportunity but for the first 30 minutes I didn't think we'd turned up.

Hmmm, are you watching the right match Mark? They did fuck all and for 15 minutes we were camped in their half.

Buendia needs to calm down, it’s just a friendly

We must be watching different games, the one I'm watching we could be 3 or 4 up and Olsen has had about 4-5 touches all half.

He does. Obviously this environment makes all players want to work harder but it's likely dawned on him he'll be on the outside looking in given the kinds of players we will be going after.

Usual pass straight to a Lazio player in the area.

I'm watching with no commentary. I call it as I see it. I thought we were really slow to get going.

Passed the ball directly to a lazio player when not under pressure
