Manchester United 2:2 Steven Gerrard's Villa (Sat 23rd July, 10:45 UK time)

Bit weird both teams are playing with their away kits that look almost similar. Nearly a colour clash
 
Wow. Erik really stamping he's mark on this team already. The quick 1 touch passing looks like it's taking fast.
Pitch messing up the moves though.

Let's see how ETH improves the defense though.
 
Pitch is awful, just what you want in preseason to pick up an injury.

I wonder how these kits look to people with colour blindness.
 
So far seems pretty clear that we have a squad of about 14 players that are actually trusted. Starting 11 out there plus Malacia, Varane, McTominay. Add Eriksen and Martinez and there's 16, so only 5 subs at any time. Doubt anyone else gets serious game time. 2 CB, 1 LB, 2 midfielders.

Definitely need some attacking depth.
 
I think we may draw this one. Those front two versus our back two worries me a bit. Of course just a friendly but it will definitely be the toughest test so far. Pitch is a shambles so hopefully no injuries.
 
The pitch is absolutely disgraceful. How can the team play the way ETH wants and put in a good performance before the season starts when the pitch is this bad.

At least one player will go off injured today, guaranteed.
 
It’s genuinely funny how much easier the ball is travelling over the new patches of grass compared to the rest of the pitch
 
I do like Donny and Fred. McTominay definitely should be a bench player only.
 
Are Maguire and Fernandes taking the piss?
 
Are people really saying there's a kit clash? Seriously? I see very different colors.
 
That pitch is completely unacceptable. How hard is it to make sure the facilities are up to scratch?
