Okay four reasons for this post.
Number One – Apology. Who the shitting hell stole the last three weeks? Oh well it’s not like we missed anything important is it. Oh wait, pre-season. Oh hold on two new strikers. NEW £20 million signing. NEW NUMBER SEVEN! Oh, and the Barry-saga which was on, off… and as of about half an hour ago back on again. Thanks MON we knew you always loved us really. Of course by this time tomorrow he’ll have probably signed for Arsenal, but at the moment it’s looking promising again. Anyhow, yes – we’ve missed far too much so apologies.
Number Two – We stuffed FOUR past Rangers and I really wanted to use that headline. Okay it’s only a friendly, but after the mostly reserves outings against lower league teams and middling european sides we’ve now hit pre-season proper. Today’s performances was impressive. Great to see Torres back in the old routine, positive to see our other new striker, David Ngog, show great confidence for the 2nd goal and also a personal highlight getting to see us in a silver away kit again.
Number Three – To push my last post and it’s stupid amount of tags from the top of our hymn sheet.
Number Four – Barry. Keane. Ngog. Pacheco. Four potential new names for the first XI. With the new season now in sight we’ll run through our expectations for each of them for the coming 12 months. Apart from the one that will probably be staying at Villa/poached by Arsenal/Announcing he’s Shergar’s lovechild (delete as applicable) by the time I’ve finished this sentence.
