Does anyone else feel this is a Harry Potter team talk?

Why say that?...bit of a silly comment, just stirs up argument...not really needed. Everyone wants to have a say now'adays, cameras and interviews almost demanded then people pull other people apart.
Do it the old way no cameras, no interviews and just a report in the paper with a comment.

I was never too impressed by Sir Alex team talks either TBH. Give Ross a chance.

Seems like we had a ‘triallist’ playing in each team that we put out today.
Anybody know who we may be looking at...........maybe the lad from Ipswich is one of them ??

I believe it was the same triallist playing the full game.

Shaq Coulthirst is the rumour.

I think I saw the back of Kion Etete, a Spurs U23 striker. 6'4 - 6'5 tall. Could be wrong but it did look like him.

I mentioned him on another subject, never seen him play but he's a size and scores goals. Started at Notts County and being at Spurs should have brought him on.

I don't understand the Coulthirst trial. He's about 5'8 with a goalscoring record of about 1 in 4. He works hard and puts himself about but he's not creative, nor is he able to hold the ball up. He's not even that quick. He's an okay striker at this level but he offers us nothing that we don't already have.

Don’t worry, he’s been Senda home.

Or he might just be training with us to keep fit and doing us a favour by playing a game where we didn’t want any of our strikers to play more than 45 mins

We played 60/30 minutes.
