Sorry gens don’t agree at all. If we had won 3-0 does that suddenly mean a great season is ahead?? It’s pre season in a nothing game!! pre season is no more then testing things and building fitness. We have lost one player of note from last season which is Grey and let’s not forget at the turn of the year people were calling for him to go back to Watford as he was allegedly lazy and bad apple. The squad as it stands is as strong as it was last season where there was big hope and expectations We lost Moses and Wallace too and Norwich midfielder that’s 3 good players Westy . Wallace and Moses mostly injured and Austin past it so personally not having that Gens. I liked them and if they played week in week out then point well raised but they never. We have lost numbers with them going, not key players as they never turned out regularly enough to be classed as that imo. The key is replacing them with players who can consistently get on the pitch |

If you take the following first team experienced players out of the first team squad you need to replace them with better players we have not done that Sorry I don’t agree with you guys yes some had injuries but still played a part in the dressing room and on the pitch a lot of the time Gray Austin Wallace Moses McCallum aside from grey all of them never played or were always injured. And who of them effected last season, again aside from grey. Last season never worked in the end so you got try something different Barbet I see further down yes he would have been worth retaining. Not sure who gizmo is? |

Beale: ''George Thomas has to finish a one-on-one and Ilias (Chair) sometimes didn’t get his final pass right.''Well, at least those two players have learnt nothing so far.

Every new manager sounds fresh and honest but they all start talking BS about 2-3 months before they get sacked.

Agree Stan. Just would like to see Thomas scoring and Chair making good decisions. Not too optimistic about that.

I like that from Beale. Looks like he's not afraid to get rid of under-performers

Good old Niko. Comes on at left back and we let 3 in. You mean Kakay? Kakay and Nico. Both poor. Kakay’s has actually had some good league games whereas Nico is a defensive liability. |

We had a good pre season last time. Look how that turned out. We are looking a bottom 4 side hoping there are 3 worse teams than us.

So, on balance, I take it the honeymoon period is still intact  |

Fucking hell the number of people on here and social media pissing and moaning about this MEANINGLESS result is a joke 🤣 Same ones were probably creaming themselves over us battering Man Utd last year. Did that result have any bearing whatsoever on our season? Nope. Give your heads a wobble ffs. Pre season has only just started. We're hardly gonna be fully fit and going full pelt this early. And Beale has a lot of work to do finding out what players he sees as regular starters, what tactics work, what signings we might need etc etc etc. Chill out ffs. They're in a tiny minority, surely? They just like to shout loud to get noticed 🤣 Need a check up from the neck up, as they saying goes. I haven’t even commented, yet. |

Honest assessment, pleasant change from cliché riddled BS. I miss the ‘fine margins’ ‘first contact’ ‘look after the ball’ ‘attack from the back, defend from the front’ |
