Back 3/5.

Looks very Championship that. Take it the 3 new lads played in the other game.

Not getting too excited by that team but feels clear to me now that Ekdal starts against Spurs and we may even be going with a back five.

Has Tuanzebe’s injury proneness reared its head already?

Thought we might see a starting 11 close to what will play next week.

Few probably still being managed fitness wise. Can’t imagine the three signed this week are fit enough to start this one, but perhaps played behind closed doors. Roberts had a knock, so Sonne starts.

Because parker picked him. These are still friendlies in preparation for next Saturday.

Well that line up isn't going to pull in many who were still undecided whether to attend.

Parker and Burnley Express commented on it yeah. Matt Scrafton reported that Laurent’s red card meant a suspension for the morning match, but could play v Lazio.

Can only assume there has been another game behind closed doors again.

The other factor is that we don't want to show our cards to Spurs who will still be guessing our formation/team as you can guarantee they will be scouting.

Very disappointing squad. Not sure whether to stay in the pub

I understand leaving out the 3 recent signings, but missing Ramsey, Flemming and Tuanzebe through assumed injury is not good at all.

Think formation wise that's how we're gonna set up. Doesn't look too bad to me. Sonne seems to better going forward than defending as a traditional RB. Plus, Walker should be able to read it down that side and talk to him when we defend.

I'm.not sure that many of us have had the opportunity to see much of Sonne therefore it will be interesting to see how he performs against some fairly testing opposition

Well, it's practice for the season ahead, I suppose. Some posters need friendlies to ahead of a long season.

Maybe Sonne has been training well. Maybe there's another game being played at the same time. Either way let's give them a chance before we judge too much.

It might have been useful for the new keeper to have played to build up some understanding with the defence.

It doesn't look like Tresor has done anything in preseason to convince Parker he's worthy of a place in the squad.

What the hell is Phil Bird on about with the kits... My god, he's totally lost it. He thinks we're in the light blue away kit, but that's Lazio.

He's finally corrected himself.

It is sods law that as soon as he moves, he'll suddenly discover the form that got him in the Belgium squad and 24 assists in a single season. For us? Doesn't seem likely

Cross came over.
Shot from the six yard box and their defender stuck a leg out.
Was goalbound.
