Its most likely blown the cobwebs away for some and for others to impress the new gaffer.
1-1 is decent for a pre season without any of the big boys

Has the melting stopped yet?
I remember when we beat the Os 5-0 or something in pre season and we all thought Giovanni Dos Santos was the second coming and Darren Bent was the new Jimmy Greaves (or John Duncan at least). The next season started with 2 points from 8 games.
Pre-season is for getting fit. Not quite time to be talking serious relegation fears.

That is gonna be Son and perhaps Ings.
Dele needs to find a new position/be a squad player or leave IMO.
I don't mind him missing a few passes v Orient pre-season.
I like Dele and I hope he stays.
Why? Because we follow our club through thick and thin? Because we love the badge no matter the players, manager or the owners?!
Lol at people like you who will never understand the culture and lifestyle of what it means to belong to and follow a football club.
I always reference THAT pre-season to anybody who reads too much into friendly games, good or bad. They really do mean fuck all, a step above training session games but that's all.
I just enjoy seeing a few of our youngsters play, as I'm not one who follows the youth teams much. Hopefully Scarlett can break through this season.
Yup. I remember that. Berbatov linking up with Barca wunderkid Gio Dos Santos.
I thought we were going to play some great football that season.
And then we sold Berba on deadline night and Fergie tossed us Frazier Campbell on loan whilst stabbing a pin into his Daniel "he's different" Levy voodoo dolly & pouring himself another glass of fine red wine.....
Any single person reading anything into this game needs to find themselves the brain they have left behind.
Fitness and nothing else..
A complete irrelevance to matters going forward.
We all know we need and must find some players but we also must realise the need to simply build stamina..

I think John and Scarlett are going to play a lot in the ECL. They both looked good
Nuno outright said that this game was about fitness in his pre game press conference. He wasn't looking at establishing a style of play in this game as it was more about getting a look at the kids and for the first teamers to get game fitness.
Shut up
Madness that anyone can think he is still a midfielder - he’s a penalty box player otherwise he is a hindrance
Remember that season when we all thought that Jose Dominguez was going to be a world beater?
lol
You mean the die hard supporters of the club? I'd rather be that than a glory hunting melt.
Nice to play smaller local teams in preseason again, like the old days.
