If the club try and pull the same stunt as last season and not announce the starting line ups for friendlies then I'm kicking off. Piss poor from them so far, we haven't even had a video of Pollock's first day where he struggles to understand the coaching staff's instructions in Spanish.
Young was at Hitchin v Watford tonight - crying his eyes out with regret at not coming ‘home’. And we lost 2-1. Xisco out etc.
https://www.millwallfc.co.uk/news/2021/july/lions-share-five-goals-in-behind-closed-doors-friendly/ We beat Millwall 3-2 in a behind closed doors friendly today. Fletcher scored twice ( ) and Quina also bagged.
Thanks for posting LBH - not sure if it's the device I'm on or my eyesight but I can't read any of the names. Any chance someone could type them out please?
I think it's that pre-season belief and optimism, but watching his highlights video I did think he looked a possible decent signing. Probably have that feeling shattered by September though.
Thanks for posting, if anyone has access to the team could they post it please. Anyone know why the club don't post about friendlies? Can't imagine it's giving too much away to our league opponents?
I posted it from my phone this morning, but the quality is poor. First half; Myles Roberts Marc Navarro Trialist A Dan Phillips Trialist B George Langston Maurizio Pottechino Henry Wise Stipe Perica Trialist C Trialist D Second half; Alfie Marriot Trialist E Trialist F Derek Agyakwa Jack Broome Sonny Blu Lo'Everton Kamil Conteh Trialist G Trialist H Tiago Cukur Dom Hutchinson
Good to hear Fletcher bagged, I'm genuinely pleased to hear that! Foster got beaten by a long-range header again?!
He was named in the match report, though I don't know if it was him who conceded the goal! Is Bachmann back to playing after the Euros?
Yeah Bachmann is back training. But we also have Dahlberg and Elliot. Either way conceding a header from the edge of the box isn't what you want to hear from any of them...
Maybe Dahlberg can be another striker ?! https://mobile.twitter.com/WatfordFC/status/1415045870819680263
Surely Navarro and Perica will have got the message from this. Reminds me of Espen Baardsen and being picked to play Chesham in a pre-season friendly.
One of the trialists was probably 18 year-old former Millwall striker Abdul Abdulmalik: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/f...ngland-17-international-Abdul-Abdulmalik.html
There was a trialist who played the first half that could have been him. Whoever it was he was rapid but pace was his only real attribute, he gave the ball away countless times.
To be fair to Foster his cycling GK video made the YouTube stars look miles better than they were. Chris MD posted the less edited version and they scored around 5 shots each out of 100.
I thought we got rid of Navarro. Emergency back up perhaps? Oh, and I mean really, really dire emergency back up. Nice to beat Millwall and Fletcher to bag his first goal(s). Never really read to much into pre-season results, it's hardly ever a prediction of how we will perform come the main games. As long as we pick up no injuries, get most players back into the groove and ready to go we will be alright.
