Nwaneri looks damn good for a 16 year old
He’s hungry!
He looks more than hungry he looks like he’s ready to play regularly in a pro league lol.
He looks nothing like a 16 year old. What are they feeding them over at Hale End? Lol
Reminds me of Fabregas almost but he’s here to stay probably lol
Even if he doesn’t stand out, it’s amazing if at 16 he’s not out of place in a team of 24 year old internationals.
I get the idea that the club is more important than the player, and for that reason the German teams have the team name above the number and the player name below. But, that doesn’t seem to take into account how cameras often frame their shots, where the bottom part of the shirt isn’t visible.
I know the chances are slim, but I’d love to see Balogun stay at this club
Same here, I think with our signing we are definitely in need of letting some players go but his potential for the club would be incredible.
Tierney is defensively sound. We’ll need him at left back when Zinchenko can’t keep up.
Oof, a “play out of the back” goal. Well played Nurnburg.
Myles Lewis-Skelly (playing wearing 59) is only 16 and also doesn’t look out of place in this team.
Yeah but this is after they’ve rotated too, so not as significant haha
Balogun seems to be coming on (26) so it looks like the line-up will now be:
GK: 31. Hein
RB: 17. Cedric
RCB: 4. White
LCB: 6. Gabriel
LB: 3. TierneyDM: 20. Jorginho
RCM: 21. Vieira LCM: 29. HavertzLW: 26. Balogun
CF. 9. Jesus
LW. 14. NketiahNelson’s not on the pitch you mean Nketiah
Moot cuz seems like more changes rn but lol
Yep, you’re right, he was on the far side of the pitch in the sun so it was hard to see. Edited.
And just as I typed that in, another round of subs. Nwanieri 63 for Vieira and Trusty 32 for Gabriel.
Trusty playing like it’s the WC final.
Nah he’s just playing American football
It’s a fucking friendly stop wrestling our players ffs
Just warmed up some rice for the second half 👀
Nwaneri my word
@Astrealix We got a 16 year running around with the big boys. Absolutely loving this. It’s amazing to see how not only are we making large signings but also having such a promising youth base.
Technically 2 16 year olds rn but tbf they’ve also swapped out the whole team p much; wasn’t the case when Nwaneri got on tho
Going in at the start of the second half:
GK: 31. Hein
RB: 17. Cedric
LB: 3. TierneyDM: 20. Jorginho
CF: 9. Gabriel Jesus
??: 29. Havertz
Jesus is RW from what I can see
Ok, Gabriel Jesus seems to be playing as a RW now, and Havertz seems to be in the Xhaka left-CM position.
Looks like Trossard out wide to me and Jesus as RW
Actually idk hard to tell with how much we rotate lol
Did Hein save that followup? I need a replay! Lol
No. He didn’t. Haha. This youtube quality stream is lacking
Looking forward to see Viera get an actual preseason.
He’s never seemed to appear settled in a match I’ve watched…
Wait what the fuck it’s their free kick?
Ikr wtf
