That's what I was thinking. 

But looking at it, you see it's not right. 

I was convinced we lost every pre season game that year. 

We had a much better squad that year

One highlight has been Harry Winks. Looking back to his best and easily our best player.

He'll be up for that Spurs game

Lol Ndidi can’t control it…

Stowell said on RL we never won a game preseason before 15-16 title win. 

We actually did, we came back from 2 down and beat Birmingham 3-2

There was one under Rodgers I think, the season we finished 5th maybe

Gone back to 10/11 and we have never had a pre-season where we have lost every game / not won a game

Friendly results mean very little - true

We're going into the new season with a points deduction and (currently) a worse team, manager and tactical setup than we had in the Championship - also true

No I just don't overreact.

 

Let's see where we are after 8 to 10 games.

Ostrich brigade. You could get a job at board level at the club

[moore_94]

McAteer on for Mavididi

 

Coady on for Vestergaard

 

Okoli on for Faes

To be fair, lots of people wanted shot of Enzo after he went shite after Xmas........

Maybe he'll come back when Chelsea sack him in late September

After we blew that 12 point lead it was expected people will lose there heads, but overall things wasn't that bad and we went on to win the league.

 

At least we had a proper identity under Enzo and players where playing for him something I can't see happening under Cooper.

[Pliskin]

This feels a bit like Cooper trying to prove we need new players. No changes, persistence with Daka….. either that or he’s mental.

Alves!?

Augsburg are miles ahead of any Austrian side. Shrewsbury were closer to that level. He didn’t look great against them either, mind

Not sure I agree entirely with that statement about the Austrian League. RB Salzburg and Sturm Graz would give these krauts a going over.

Think he kind of means at least we had a direction under Enzo even though it became boring half a season later, with Cooper there seems nothing 

[phoneticerror]

Results mean nothing, yes. But playing like shite and sticking with the same players who can’t shoot is a concern, regardless of results.

As insightful as ever eh?

[Richmondfox]

Ndidi is useless if he has to do anything other than the slotted pass for Fatawu or his chip across the goal.
