He means the fans will learn a lot, not lope or the player ![]()
Heās injured and didnāt make the trip.
And so it beginsā¦
Will we see more manitas this season?
100%.
Iām willing to bet from now that weāll see them at least 5 times this season in all competitions.
I can only imagine what would happen if this debacle was received by Atletico Madrid under Simeone in a pre-season match. First Iām sure it wouldnāt ever happen because itās a different mentality and pair of balls over there. It would be a scandal with many consequences.
While for us, itās just another day in the office.
We donāt really have a defence now, so anything goes.
Clearly weāve been beaten fair and square but a lot of us here saw it coming and so we are not surprised.
Iām afraid this will happen even with a full team and defense against teams like Arsenal, which are not spectacular teams by any means. Barca can easily do this to us. RM too⦠then the first team in the pot in CL group stages and the team weāll face next if we somehow go through.
Having some Eduardo Berizzo vibes/flashes now.
Iād rather you keep criticizing Lope this season than bring up Simeone & Atletico. Fuck that team.
Really good free kick set up from Arsenal.
Well that is one thing but another is that Simeone played almost the entire 21/22 preseason with Cantera.
Arsenal just beat Chelsea 4-0 too so they are a good team itās just theyāve spent a ton of money this summer and are ready. We have the same team minus our two center backs playing a very good and ready Arsenal team. I saw this coming tbh.
I just finished work⦠Thank f##k I missed this one.
I think Monchi and Castro need to be asking themselves real questions, as they may be watching games in a half-full stadium this year. Canāt be asking fans to watch this debacle week in, week out!
As others have said, this team canāt handle pacey teams.
Definitely a good team, 6 for Arsenal - 0 for Arsenal de la Liga, as Shendm would say.
Hope we donāt have to pay a fine for not showing up in the finals of the Emirates Cup.
Alright, this oneās done. On to tomorrow.
I know itās toxic to say āIām glad we lost, itās better for the teamā, but this should have more of an impact than another drab 1-1.
Onto Leicester!
In true SFC form, weāre now even on point differential this preseason.
Big-brained move to just go for the super-drawā¦
Hope this forces Monchi into making multiple signings before Osasuna game in two weeks.
