Pretty strong lineup for our game with Roma:

Jones, Kelly, Skrtel, Coates, Enrique, Lucas, Allen, Coutinho, Borini, Lambert and Ibe

Subs: Ward, Agger, Henderson, Can, Suso, Coady, Phillips, Robinson and Peterson

Always thought Ibe was around Sterling's size but he looked huge stood next to Allen and some of the other players during the minutes silence :eek:

Pigeon_Killer · 24 Jul 2014 at 00:47

Oh joy, Borini injured and subbed :rolleyes:

Edit: My stream's working fine yet Dean Saunders keeps stuttering.

This BT Sport commentary is absolutely shocking. Christ.

It's annoying you have to have it full screen to get the max quality.

Pigeon_Killer · 24 Jul 2014 at 01:06

I can't decide whether Dean Saunders is absolutely hilarious or absolutely dreadful. He's like the Alan Partridge of football commentary.

'These top players, the difference between the players at the top.. at the top, is the speed of thought, is the difference'

WTF?

Robbo · 24 Jul 2014 at 01:08

Yeah, it's a constant stream of poorly delivered, hilariously obvious remarks.

Pigeon_Killer · 24 Jul 2014 at 01:22

Pretty poor half of football but decent performances from Coates, Coutinho and Ibe again. Kelly and Enrique have been poor and Lambert, Allen and Can have all been anonymous so far.

Must win game according to Saunders though so expect more in the second half.

Robbo · 24 Jul 2014 at 01:31

Hahaha!

"He doesn't look as if he's dislocated his shoulder, but he might have just popped something out..."

Pigeon_Killer · 24 Jul 2014 at 01:49

WTF was that meant to mean?

'Before a game starts the ref often tells you to take a player off before he brings one on'

:confused:

Robbo · 24 Jul 2014 at 01:50

No idea.

Purdy · 24 Jul 2014 at 01:52

'You don't see that often nowadays, a goalkeeper taking a goal kick and hitting it down the pitch'

Wat

Robbo · 24 Jul 2014 at 01:53

Comedy gold this commentary.

Purdy · 24 Jul 2014 at 01:54

Damn that was a nice hit

Pigeon_Killer · 24 Jul 2014 at 01:56

His story about meeting Ian Rush for the first time and learning about anticipation was genius in the first half.

Edit: 'Biggest weapon as a defender is your voice'

Pigeon_Killer · 24 Jul 2014 at 02:27

1-0 Roma

Robbo · 24 Jul 2014 at 02:30

This commentary has been far more entertaining than the game.

Own goal too.

twist3d0n3 · 24 Jul 2014 at 02:31

Dull game, that. Hoping United fare better in a bit

Purdy · 24 Jul 2014 at 02:35

I don't know why I never learn with pre season games, they always suck and aren't worth watching

Robbo · 24 Jul 2014 at 03:28

Team confirmed:

De Gea, Smalling, Jones, Evans, Valencia, Fletcher (c), Herrera, Shaw, Mata, Welbeck, Rooney
