Guangdong v LFC

[Fredo]

Flanagan's playing left back, with Wilson in the centre.

[Craig_H]

Cole slips N'Gog in on the left, tight-ish angle, shoots low, keeper down at his near post to save. Corner for us.

[JohnDoe]

I like Shelvey's composure on the ball, he rarely looks rushed.

Which is one of the reasons why Kenny rates him so highly apparently. Very good passer.

[Craig_H]

Carra fouls his man, and picks up the ball to give to the Chinese for the freekick - and then realises the ref never actually blew for a foul

[Maxiedge]

We're going to walk the league

[Muddled]

Carragher gives the Chinese a free kick. Literally.

[Fernandinho]

cant wait for adam to start taking our corners...

[Gaz]

He doesn't look rushed even when he's running

Which is one of the reasons why Kenny rates him so highly apparently. Very good passer.

I dont know how good his passing is - but when he as the ball at his feet, he's very controlled, composed and focused. Which is nice.

[Craig_H]

He doesn't look rushed even when he's running

Joe Cole in acres of space on the right, as we have a two-on-two attack. N'Gog fannies about with it too long and then plays a weak ball, instead of sliding Cole in on goal. Pass cut out by defender.

[Shaggy]

Every summer we get excited about these friendlies and every summer they're absolutely wank and we look like amateurs

Remember when we lost 5-0 to Mainz

[Maxiedge]

that was **** by Ngog. Really, really ****.

[Craig_H]

N'Gog played through with a slide rule pass from Spearing - but flag goes up, N'Gog about a yard offside.

Yep, they're always utter gash

I remember last season, and the theory is 'its only preseason, doesnt matter' - but the losing habit can carry into the season and we had a **** start.

We need to get into the habit of winning, even in preseason. The sooner it clicks, the more games we'll carry it into for the season.

[Fernandinho]

Did Ayala go with the squad?

[Fredo]

Kelly's all over the place.
