Do we know the squad for today and tomorrow?

I'm surprised that clubs have permitted players to fly overseas this summer as it seems to have put a short pre season into a great deal of jeopardy across the board.

No idea who is available for today.
I would hope a few more senior players will be involved.

Wouldn't be surprised to see a few play parts in both matches for fitness as Jose wanted back to back games at the restart.

Can't really stop it, some of the holiday is statutory

Mate, that would absolutely be an unethical thing to do, though this abroad thing is massively overstated considering the UK is hardly the best place to be in regards to avoiding covid.

OK true. To be honest I have a huge issue with this sense of entitlement everyone has when it comes to getting abroad at the moment so perhaps that's where I'm coming from.

Just find it difficult to swallow when the league did so much to find ways to come back to complete last season (for the money obvs) that they have nothing in place for this season.

Across the three matches we’ve played I’m pretty pleased. Son, Dele, Lucas, Bergwijn and Lamela all look sharp. White and Cirkin look very comfortable playing men’s football. Højbjerg looks a hell of a signing. Every centre back combination we’ve played has looked both defensively tight but also good at playing the ball out.

Harry, Lo Celso, Doherty all yet to come too. We have reason for optimism.

Given we have a number of players out representing their countries, we might field a team like this for the Watford friendly.

Hart
Aurier --- CCV --- Sanchez --- Cirkin
------- GLC ------- White--------
Lamela ------- Dele -------- Lucas
------------ Son ---------------

Subs- Gazza, Foyth, Clarke, Devine, Scarlett, Bowden.

Would like to see Jack Roles get some minutes in this game as he's been scoring in back to back pre-season games for the U23's.​
