Who is the lad with Cucurella-hair?
Harvey Blair.
Jayden Danns for Adidas recently.
Is he with the first team right now? With all the senior attackers still being away he should be.
He is not.
Expected return July 29: Jota and Alisson
Expected return August 5: Ibrahima Konate, Virgil van Dijk, Ryan Gravenberch, Cody Gakpo, Alexis Mac Allister, Luis Diaz, Darwin Nunez, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Joe Gomez
August 17: Ipswich vs Liverpool
So, two weeks between the return to training of many of our key players, and the start of the season. That’s far from ideal.
Kind of was to be expected though.
Considering the absentees and their return schedule, who would Arne slot in for the preseason?
Bradley Quansha CB Robertson
Szoboszlai Endo Curtis
Salah CF CF
Our depth is strong
I’ll be really interested in how that right side goes this pre-season. For all the talk of that being where we need to spend money this year we have Doak now back in first team training, Gordon with seemingly back to fitness with a decent year of youth football under him, and Slot supposedly taking a liking to Blair from the U21s there could be something useful emerge out of preseason for that role.
@Hope.in.your.heart here we go - a behind closed doors game against PNE tomorrow

Slot out.
It’s a disgrace. Virgil dropped, Trent nowhere to be seen. Crap tactics and an embarrassing loss to some minnows.
Slot’s record so far? 100% defeats.
