Espanyol friendly Wed 3 Aug

Not being streamed tonight, so I was wondering if anyone that goes can post up a bit of a review?

The official Twitter is posting video snippets of the best moments but as I can’t seem to get Twitter stuff to link here properly, I’ll give it a miss unless somebody cares to give me some pointers.

Finally, no Bertrand tonight. This is a bit of a worry as it wouldn’t be the first time he’s missed the start of a season. Anyone have any ITK news on what might be up? As Targett is still injured, McQueen gets another chance. Hopefully he can rapidly improve his final ball.

I spent a fruitless half hour trying to track down streaming links / audio via the usual channels and not so usual channels - nothing.

I guess they’ll have more bums on seats at home that way

might be worth starting a petition to virgin to see if they can do something for fans who don’t live locally and can’t travel to games - bit late this season I guess.

1-0 up at the moment through a Romeu header from a jwp corner.

Redmond looking good. Quick and direct.

Tadic looks to have upped a gear this evening.

Saints line up:

Forster : blatantly trying to nick the balding Joe Hart’s head and shoulders contract.

McQueen Vvd yoshi cuco

Romeu clasie jwp

Redmond long tadic

Very fluid in midfield and up front but generally Romeu deepest, clasie on the right. Tadic/redmond in 10 position.

Jwp had a good half.

All looks promising.

Still no hand dryers in the loos. Cunts.

McQueen has impressed me, Cuco not so much so. Lovely ball in the first half from Yoshida to Tadic, Tadic should have shot first time but fannied around and wasted the opportunity!!

Second half subs:

Davis on for jwp

Austin for long

Mccarthy for Forster

Hojbjerg for clasie

Mccarthy in goal for the 2nd half, can’t work out if there’s been any more changes…

Long off Austin on

Jwp replaced by Davis

Clasie replaced by Hojberg

So no change there then?

Oh, the Espanyol keeper had to make a string of good saves in the first half

McQueen would be a whole heap better if he shaved off his stupid hipster beard, wanker

Guy with Fonte looks like Bruma - Galatasaray winger.

If Jose Fonte had a Twitter Account he could watch little snippets like I am, instead of sitting in the stands getting pestered for selfies :slight_smile:

Tadic sitting deeper and more central this half, much less effective. Austin had a good chance from a decent ball by Cuco but shot straight at the keeper

Claude looking smart in navy blue sweater and black trousers. Better than that fat ginger fuck from last year in his chinos, boating shoes and blazer.
