The manager of Spartak doing his best to look like Hervé Renard

Barrenecheas movement in midfield is really nice.

Half chance for them on the break after Leon tried to do much at the edge of their box and got caught out. Easy save by Joe.

Very lightweight up top.  Ned looks good. Illing can't get into the game at the moment. Why is the commentator calling him Diego Costa??

He’s calling him Kosta. And happens to be playing next to Diego Carlos.

Early signs are the Dobbin, Barry, Swinkels aren’t making this squad and will be out on loan.

Not really. Mostly reserves and new lads playing a lot like they just met. Which is true.

Off the top of my head I think we have 11 players to come back which is mental considering we're on to game 2 of preseason.

Can you name them please? I get ocd about this shit. When the match-thread starts with the squad graphic, I'm always trying to think of all the senior players that are absent.

You should never go to ground screaming in a friendly, even if your f@ckin head fell off I would be embarrassed.

Maybe Villa can loan Dobbin to Everton and Everton loan Tim to Villa :)
