Wonder will bigger clubs than Marseille be interested in Greenwood? Haven't seen him play since his Man United days.

My concerns about the defence have not been allayed this pre season.  Massive upgrades at RB and CH needed.

Hope tonight's friendly is a bit friendlier than yesterday's friendly.

agree, i hope that we see more of Garcia and Mings, less of Torres Maatsen and Cash.

It wasn’t my intention to suggest only women should be worried about sexual assault, both clubs moral compasses seem to be out, in that it’s all about protecting their assets until even they can’t justify it.

I’m just surprised Arsenal haven’t received more criticism about their handling of the Partey case.

Fair enough Bosco, agreed Arsenal seem to have escaped criticism where it is due.

Also, sadly it is true that many clubs won't care as long as the player can do a job.

Did that rat Greenwood spit in Onana's face?

Maybe by accident. Assume more would have been made of it if he had done so on purpose? I'd have taken them off the pitch if someone did that on purpose in a friendly.

That was no accident. You could clearly spit towards Onanas face but I dont know any actually hit his face. Thats enough for him to face charges imo. Or preferably face 5 minutes in a ring with Mings where there's no rules.

Hmm maybe. Onana's reaction looks like he did, maybe it was when Mings grabbed him. Rather not give him the benefit of any doubt though, disgusting person.

Something definitely went in Onana's face, you can see him wipe it off as Mings is throwing Greenwood around. I assumed that was what Mings reacted to. It looked like he was just going over to keep Onana from reacting to the tackle at first.

Mings grabbing him reminded me of my Dog when he gets hold of his cuddly toy.

That Marseille team is a right bunch of rogues (none lovable).  But Greenwood is a total ******. He’d be seriously injured within a few weeks if he ever returned to England.
