They’ve done a proper mix of 1st team and youngsters both halves. We basically had the 1st team + Perry and Brau 1H and the 2nd string this half.

Akliouche who scored the 3rd had 15GA in Ligue 1 last season.

Lads it's a fitness friendly let's not stress out.

Although watching this we desperately need a striker and goalkeeper to a better standard. Where's Bertie anyways?

What do we benefit from playing teams like this? Surely it would be better to play more evenly matched teams to what we will face week in week out

Correct.

but the game has just highlighted the same old issues - soft goals and plenty of them / back 4 that is too easy to get in against

There is always a risk in playing top class opposition in pre season … results like this can easily happen.

the upside is that no one at the club will be under any false illusion that we don’t need to strengthen this window.

They are a good side, leave it at that. I am not one of those that ‘doesn’t care’ about pre season results but really we should only be worried if lesser teams were turning us over.

The kind of nonsense being posted on here is exactly why they didn’t want fans in Portugal, and are playing behind closed doors.

If people think we’re better off playing Leamington and Bedworth and learning nothing than we are playing Monaco and getting handed a good lesson then there’s no hope for you.

We haven't learned anything new from this, Wilson remains sub-par in goal and we need better at CB. Would be nice to see us practice more than one way of playing though.

The results mean fuck all at this point. We hammered Everton last year and were utter shite when the actual season started.

Exactly. Result means nothing, but people saying that its just a run around are wrong. Theres a lot to be learnt from these games.

Exactly that.

But the clubs broke and we have 3 key positions to fix. (CB, GK and ST)

Maybe we should ask Liverpool for the money tree they seemed to have magically found!
