VPN and 25AuD per month (~15 pounds) for all PL, FA Cup and CL games. Not the worst.
They arenāt shit.
But we should still smash them even if we end up conceding goals.
Itās a game to enjoy while at least taking note of how we play.
Anyone crying how shit we were for 10 minutes or something after the game needs to be banned.
Dom for Mac Allister. The club are being very careful with Macca.
I would love for Mac to start over Dom this game. Even if itās only for 45 / 60 mins. Mac just offers so much more than Dom. Mac / Wirtz / Graven the middle trio
Dom has been one of our best players during pre-season
Letās see who is fit.
I prefer Jones in deeper double-pivot zones to Szobo, more natural and more experience there. I didnāt like him in the build up phase as the LCM against Bilbao. But thing is, Gravenberch (technically more profined than Szobo, especially in ball manipulation) is basically always the RCM under Slot.
So it also depends on the teamās dynamics, I still want to see how our use of our full backs change if itās Bradley/Frimpong or Kerkez/Robbo. Definitely want to see an improvement defensively, especially defensive transitions and set-pieces (that was already to be seen last season).
That doesnāt mean Iād drop Szobo to the bench, because Ekitike looks like he still has to hit a few more gears. Szoboās pressing is definitely important and needed. Double false #9ās with Szobo and Wirtz is something Iād also consider.
We know Gravenberch (now he looks like he will hit the ground running, looks phenomenal at the minute, probably our best in shape midfielder) is available here, but suspended for the start of the league season.
Mac also looks a little bit off (he might feature, but not have 90 minutes of high intensity in his legs), so Jones will definitely be needed deeper and itās another reason to give him another game deeper.
Must win
Slot will want to win this curtain opener.
I want us to at least score a goal and wouldnāt mind a few more.
Iām also looking forward to the start of a new season with many new faces (at least for me).
Iām curious to see how well we defend their counterattacks and set pieces. Thatās something we didnāt do well during the preseason.
Slot has never won a community shield.
Thereās a first time for everything!
My methods are much more subtle
Good stuff, Aliās back.
If he doesnāt start on Sunday, he should be perfectly fine for Bournemouth.
Spotted lots of funny moments with Jeremie, what a guy
Edit
Some bits..

I forgot this was on. I would have posted a summary, but I canāt watch the match live and I am now having a strop.
Iām assuming the final question was about Mac Allister?
