Need not to overreact with this result. Don't take it lightly because we do still have some problem and weakness to solved. At the same time, don't get overboard by saying this is what the best this team can get. A lot of factors involved, and our fitness level clearly is not ideal yet. In the middle of pre-season like this, we will take the lesson, fix the problem, get ready for the next one.
Really want to see Christensen starting this again. Maybe Rudiger to sub in on the second half. Want to know if they are 'good enough' or we need to sign another CB this window.
Conte: 'Our start wasn't good but the players showed me a great will to try to change the result.' #CFCTour
Conte on Morata: 'We must give him the right time to adapt to our way of football but he should be pleased with his performance.' #CFCTour
Strange thing is that no media think it is a sign we will get a new LB by sending Kenedy home. Usually their creative imagination works fast, but not this time.
Think Conte want to take his time to analyze the team for a moment now. He want to give a chance for some players (especially young players) to prove their worth. After that we will back in business.
Ronaldo given full 4 weeks holiday after Confederations Cup and will return to training on early August. Maybe Rudiger will get the same treatment. But then the pre-season is over, lol.
