Pre-Season - Colchester v Spurs Wednesday 21 July, 19.45

[Don Giovanni]

Dier still a fucking clown, will never change

 

[Don Giovanni]

Skipp has more awareness in midfield than Winks and Dele combined

I'm not sure what Dele's long term career will look like, but I can tell you for sure it's not on the left side of a midfield 4-3-3. It's a strange place to use him (Poch did, but that was only in the dire days of us only really having Winks and Sissoko).

Couldn't agree more, Skipp is by far the best midfielder on the pitch

 

[Furball man]

DEBBIE !

3-0.

Dele. Classic Dele goal with a late run into the box.

 

[Macch]

There you go Dele!!! Not pretty but still counts

Dele ends the 3 years of decline...
Brilliant pass by Paskotsi.
We've got Alli......

 

[ShutUpPatrik]

I'd heard that but 3 years of decline? You'd think the club would have stepped in if that was the issue.

Depends on what it is I guess.

He wouldn't be the first player with sleep issues.

 

[Smogz]

Where the fuck is Ndombele? Not fully trained yet? Injured?

 

[TheRealTI]

I wonder if Nuno sees Skipp as an 8 and Winks is just playing Pierre's role today?

If today's performance is an indicator, I'd be happy with Pierre as a 6, and a rotating cast of Skipp/Ndombele/Lo Celso as 8s.

 

[ShutUpPatrik]

I just cant criticise winks. Came through academy, a fan and needs encouragement. Like to see academy players do well.

you can criticise as long as you remain constructive.

 

[TheRealTI]

Our RB is pushed really high when we are in possession. Makes me think Doherty will play that role for us at times (or a RB we acquire later this summer). Another option is the Japanese lad from Bologna plays a very reserved RB role and we push Regy very high on the left.

 

[Furball man]

Presenter hasn't sorted out his skinny jeans issue though

He also needs a bigger shirt , portly little chap .

 

[Furball man]

What he's the bloke in the blue?

I think so , yup . Not seen him with a beard before though

 

[Spursindevon]

Not only are we the best team in North London, we are now the best team in Essex.

 

[Skippa18]

Where the fuck is Ndombele? Not fully trained yet? Injured?

At home eating probably

 

[TheRealTI]

Dier off, Tanganga on
Skipp off, John on

Also mentioned Scarlett coming on but not who is coming off

Edit: Son off

Great from Japh and Alfie..

 

[ILSpur]

Too bad, was a great goal. Fantastic pass as well.

 

[Elias]

Why the fuck are Colchester making fouls like that in a pres-season friendly.
