Impressed by the play and the performance so far!
Excited to see Bissouma, Lo Celso and Solomon second half.

It was a bit obvious from last season. He's lost a bit of pace, and that's made him predictable and easy to defend against.
So, let me get this straight.
Ange is the coach and they should be following his system. He’s the one who coaches and directs the players where and how to play, he selects the players for certain positions in the game knowing their tendencies, the players have been trained on the system and his expectations.
But you’re saying that’s all wrong?
But it's not working is it? 1 penalty goal against Singaporean sailors, 1 penalty goal against Shakhtar who have been woeful in their pre-season.
Although it's a friendly, much better passing and movement than the past few years.
So much better than the passive stuff from previous.

Love the close ball controll of Maddison
These were not unknown quantities...no reason to attribute unwarranted and extraordinary credit...he also set us up to spend more than 2x their price on Kulu and he was a super known 'quantity'. Stop the nonsense hero worship.
Really impressive pressuring post kick off after the first goal. Almost immediate repossession!
Mah-di-sohn Mad-di-sohn! 
Must say I'm loving Maddison
Yeh, scoring a pen in a very friendly friendly ought to be full max shirts off stuff!
He’s no longer living in Leicester innit
The post scoring jump wasn’t so high so he’s off!
Oh fuck off
He is a quality player, only De Bruyne I believe has better G/A in the prem past few seasons as an AM. Absolute steal at £40m, he is probably with us on a 4/5 year deal a 80-100m player. As good a signing as we can make really.
