Interesting that Lowry isn't in the squad. I've heard some say he's injured but not heard the club confirm this.

Lowry does have a knock but should be back for the start of the season.

Family commitments last night meant I only seen the first half and the last 15mins of the 2nd.

 

 

So basically you missed the good part of the game?

I was thinking: If we have a back-three formation up our sleeves too (we did last season, and we've signed defenders that can be utilised in a back-three), we're well-set.

 

And, we've got a manager that can get the best out of tinkering with formations, mid-match. 

Absolutely. As strong as we've been at centre back for a while. And we have a number of versatile players who allow us to tinker formation without necessarily making changes. I think Sands is a very useful player to have, I really hope he proves himself this season.

Their goal was disputed IMO because a West Ham player was using Lundstram as a vaulting horse.

All in all a very good result against a decent EPL outfit but I'm worried with the lack of depth in attack. Colak looks OK at the moment and works hard but we have no-one else should we he pick up a knock.  Apparently Tillman can play as a striker but if Morelos is still two months away and Roofe as unreliable as ever fitness wise then I think we need another number 9.

Kind of agree but I’m not convinced we’ll add one as long as Roofe is on the books. What calibre of striker is coming here while we have Morelos, Colak and Roofe? A 6 month loan might make more sense but I suspect we are looking at using Tillman there if it comes to it.

 

I'd honestly hoped a decent bid would come in for Morelos and we’d have an opportunity to reinvest that money in a new striker in this window but it's looking like we will be going into a transfer window in January where Morelos is free to agree terms with whoever he wants. If he gets offers in a top league I can't see him turning it down really.

Aye, sitting waiting in a boiling car on my youngest daughter's dance class finishing 30mins late...

But that gives the full game, in case you wanted to see the full half hour that you missed. 🤷‍♂️
