I get the impression that the manager likes Madsen and his ability to break lines and take risks.

I’ve always been supportive of CN as I thought he was bringing something new to the club that was needed. I can see the logic of developing young players as a means of improving our bank balance down the line but playing Preston et al isn’t down the line it’s now and I’m nervous about ‘the project’. I’m coming over all Alan Hansen regarding kids. Not in this league.

I’d prefer to see the first team training rather than all these kids. Didn’t see Cook, Dunne, Varane.

That thing in the pit of my stomach just turned over on itself.

Getting in very early on this one. I only started one match thread last season and we won 4-0 so here’s hoping my luck continues especially as it’s such a huge fixture. Not just because it’s the first game of the season or because it’s the first game for JS, not just because the pressure is on us to beat a team, at home, that many have tipped to be relegated but because this team needs to win for its fragile confidence. To get its supporters to forget about gardening leave and divided opinions. My anxiety levels are way higher than normal for this game and with the injuries we’ve accumulated so early in the season I don’t think they’re going to drop, especially if Dunne and Cook are unavailable.

You wait for months for the season to start and this is what you get; a knot in the pit of your stomach.

I’m going for a rollercoaster 3-2 win. Chair with the first.

C’mon you soooopahhooooopsah.

Can’t believe we still haven’t announced the squad numbers!

Re the prediction league, well done for doing this Clive, adding it to your many LFW related duties. Is it possible to add the ‘No scorer’ numbers to the bar chart? Also is there an option for ‘Own goal? I can’t remember if there is but after last season it would be as sound a punt as any!

What an amazing turnout by the crowd today. Certainly getting their moneys worth. 😬

He’s got to learn not to dive in. He got caught out twice and left a huge hole behind him. Hopefully he’ll learn.

Field was pretty good in his natural position of LCB. He should try to make that position his.

I’m getting big Alfie Lloyd vibes about Adamson. Enthusiasm and loads of heart but naive. Like a puppy.

As expected they’re better at just about everything on the pitch but there are glimpses of promise in our play and as was seen in the training vids we are much more progressive and quicker than for most of last season which will do for me for the time being. Larkeche giving the ball away far too much.

I know Hayden doesn’t fit the profile re age/resale value but I’d make an exception. We’re short in both positions he can cover and he’s on a free. Yes please.

All very well taking risks and making mistakes to create chances but to take risks and make mistakes to break a high press playing out from the back will get punished in the Championship. I’d be far happier if those risky moments were confined to the opposition half ala Warnock/Taraabt.
Mind you, the thought of our out ball being the Sunday league tactic of booting it upfield onto Jimmy’s head is depressing.
What a conundrum.

I’d like to us press as a team high up the pitch. One player pressing on their own doesn’t seem to work very well.

And his pace is more than useful in covering for Dunne’s lack of it.

Madsen looking to get on the ball and be the midfield creator. Couple of ill advised passes but on balance I think he’s done more good than bad.

Oh and can I add that is a truly beautiful kit.
