I agree with you, Chailey.
I am pretty sanguine and have faith in our leaders.
My post was an attempt at being light-hearted rather than in earnest.
Did the initial point on squad quality pass you by?

Blimey! I've just watched the highlights and seen the Albion create more chances than I saw in total since Christmas.
I love the way we aim to get the ball into dangerous positions so quickly.
I think PottyTime could be very entertaining.

Oh I see. Didn't seem to be a problem for Burnley who beat Fulham in their first friendly
Funnily enough, we were just saying something similar.
For which current Albion players would there be uproar (on NSC etc), if they were sold in the next 3 weeks?
Dunk, Duffy, Bernardo, possibly Muzza?
Much incoming business to do.

I've got a feeling Locadia may come good this season... We shall see

Not seen such Bravery!
I'd be in *uproar* if we sold Pascal the Great.
The rest, not so much outrage from me, a tinge of sadness in many cases. Maybe a little outrage about Bernardo.

Let's hope we perform better at Birmingham than last pre-season.

Potter will have seen enough from a few weeks of training and two games to have an idea of who he wants and who he doesn't want. That's why my original point was credit for giving established first teamers a run out, he has seen them for a month now and Im sure studied videos and know who will fit into his new game plan. Personally I can see a few ins and outs between now and the close of the window.

Vietto did play well. Cairney came on at 27 minutes, and they changed the formation to suit. Rest is history.

Remember he was missing games because his ‘head wasn’t right’ . He left for the money and the Premier League, not because he wasn’t wanted.

Don't forget Bissouma......who is injured at present.

I had forgotten. Yes outrage too if he were to be sold.

To be honest I don’t give a monkey’s about pre-season games results. They are training games to enable the coaching staff to assess what is required for the league season. Hopefully they, and the players, will be fine tuned for Saturday 10th August, we certainly weren’t in the corresponding fixture last year.

And if Duffy and Stephens hadn't made mistakes then so would we have won. Wet the bed over a friendly if you want. I can assure you from being a few yards away from some players in the second half that they were blowing mightily. It is a well known fact that preseason starts with fitness levels and works towards all round training. Fulham were a week ahead in this process and went from looking abject in the first half to the better side in the second as we tired and made changes.

You don't exactly look at Stephens dad bod and think 'naturally fit'. Preseason must be a bloody nightmare for him.
Is it the case that we have used 4 2 3 1 for all our pre season so far?
We may have learnt one thing that at least initially the new manager feels this is best for our current squad.
A relatively small tweak from our last manager.
If locardio is contesting the central attacking role with andone and murray.
Knocky goes and izzy injured maybe the priority is another winger/inside forward and not a forward unless
one of the current three are let go?
