State of Garner there.

So easily bypassed.

Good save, lad

How have all the new signings looked?

quality save by Travers earlier.

Why are we in home kit and them in away kit?

If it had been sunny where I live I'd be in the garden topping up my tan.

I'd guess because we haven't a third kit yet and our home and away kits would clash with Blackburn's blue and white.

Season expectations: Hoping three teams are worse than us.

Stream died.

Or did the game end?

Either way I’m relieved.

That was shite.

Normally these first few friendlies dont matter because you've got 4-5 players due from late starts due to internationals, but what we had today is what we've got and its absolutely rubbish.

CM and RW need to be in this week, but we're off to America now so that'll be it until we get back. Shambles of a club.

Takes time for them to gel with the team

Nah. These players picked up points at a comfortable midtable rate last season and reinforcements are on their way.

The regulars we lost are Doucoure and Harrison. Their output is replaceable.

I think we’ll be just fine.

Also, and I think this is a legitimate fault of his, Moyes teams always start the season like shit.

I’m sure they’ve just been working on fitness.

Because there was no build-up, breaking the lines, co-ordinated press, nothing really, just a few floaty diags.

I think we’re all greatly underestimating what Doucouré brought, as clumsy and frustrating as he was.
