They must have hundreds of Ngumohas in a warehouse somewhere.

Even in the context of pre-season (building fitness, player rotations, different climate, possible bad pitches), certain things absolutely matter, especially at such big football clubs. Slot said it himself after Milan.

We donโ€™t go from being so-so in friendlies and being relaxed like on the beach to being bang on point on matchday 1 just like that. Itโ€™s why pre-season is there and especially modern pre-seasons. We want to get into rhythm. Itโ€™s not only to build fitness, itโ€™s constant working on our football, cohesion, phases of play, partnerships, etc.

Nobody is panicking in saying that weโ€™ve seen some positive stuff (Iโ€™d say mostly in combination play between the lines, there seems to be nice fluidity), but also some low level defensive transitioning (which is also linked to losing possession, understandable in pre-season and a lack of better counter-pressing).

Fixing some things takes a bit more time and with less friendlies, we will see less โ€œexperimentsโ€ and less game time for players that either wonโ€™t be here or wonโ€™t play much. Now itโ€™s time to push and start building the XI (and the cohesion within) we will start the season with.

Not many skilful players, so itโ€™s understandable that they appreciate each other. I actually felt thinking from Wirtzโ€™s perspective, who he might like and Curtis immediately popped to my mind.

The commentator said the plan had been to give Ekitike 30 mins, so he actually played 50% longer than was intended lol

Only because he was so bad that we couldnt give him the hook so early and kill his confidence
