2019/20 Pre-season.


Recommended Posts

Might have had 3.  Set up by a perfect layoff from Mirallas (!), Walcott’s somewhat timid shot saved off the line by Monaco defender.  And near the end, Davies hit woodwork.  Both should have scored.

Still think Niasse could score 4-5 goals and get/save us points as 70-75th minute sub.  His lovely flick-shot over GK might have gone in on its own even if Coleman hadn’t headed it in.  Hard to tell from camera angle.

McCarthy gets a foot in regularly.  Might still help us, though I guess he’s off?

Digne, Coleman solid all match.

Walcott looks ready for the season to start tomorrow, Davies not too shabby either with a nice effort at the end. On the other hand Monoco look more league one than ligue 1 with very little quality other than pace, apart from Fabregas who has it the other way round.

I have a theory that it was Kev's long lost twin brother and Kev is locked in a kit-room somewhere, no way does the real Mirallas not take on the shot

Maybe he knows he is a fullback, and attackers are the ones to shoot?

Well they did finish 17th last season so no big surprise really.

Yeah, he’s probably way more upset with Walcott than was Walcott with himself for the missed shot.  No more layoffs for Theo.  No matter where (or whether) Mirallas plays this season, the searing memory of his missed assist augurs ill for wide-open teammates.
