Real Betis

[Oakdale]

Nice to know we're still tinpot

 

[AlGard]

Rico can take a decent corner. The opposition's 1st man at corners is redundant. Huzzah!

 

[Toronto John]

Good to see Harry playing hard and with some edge.

 

[northstandmark]

Wanna see Rico swinging balls into Ake this season

Agree,I'd like to see him and Lewis start v Cardiff.

 

[kirsikka]

Oh well. 2-0

 

[RobTrent]

0-2

 

[northstandmark]

Hmmm

 

[Toronto John]

Boys clocked off a minute early. Only watched about 20 minutes, but did like what I saw of Rico, and again, Harry playing with some fire (and a late booking, but oh well). Back at it tomorrow.

 

[Neil Dawson]

Don’t stress. Only Francis (maybe), and Cook will start from that side. Worrying how little we involve Defoe still after a year...

 

[AlGard]

AFCB League Cup XI 0 Real Betis 2.

1 It was a friendly.
2. They are decent and used their full squad.

Tomorrow, a brilliant Marseille side will take on our near 1st team.
Judge then.

 

[borisatha]

Don't panic.
They don't like it up 'em.
Another defeat tomorrow and that will be it. lol

 

[SlowDownDerek]

Are there a few Spaniards there tonight?
Can you get tapas still in Charmy?

Reports I am getting from the ground suggest that the Spanish women are just about the only reason it was worth going to.

Hola!

Couldn't watch it. Frustrating if it's due to the EFL kicking off. It's a friendly and why should a competition we are not involved in stop our club televising it.

That said I really don't get excited by friendlies. I preferred analysing the open training session Monday. We will be fine, thats not our full strength 11 and Eddie still has a week to do some business

Why should tele run everything? Moved kick-offs, VAR, etc etc.

 

[AlGard]

Well done Betis.
Let's all sing the Spanish national anthem.
Decent side for sure.

 

[red_house]

Oh well..very underwhelmed.

We await the result of this new tactic of chopping the squad in half and doubling up on friendlies .

 

[billythekid]

Personally not bothered with the friendlies, if we come through them all without any injuries that will be good news.

What happens against Cardiff is more important.

I'm fed up with this its only a friendly it doesn't matter. The next will be its only the first league match against Cardiff it doesn't matter. Beginning to look like our sights will be lower than 2017-18 which was lower than 2016-17. We need to have a winning mentality not a lets save ourselves for later attitude.
