He's hungry!
He looks more than hungry he looks like he's ready to play regularly in a pro league lol.
He looks nothing like a 16 year old. What are they feeding them over at Hale End? Lol

I get the idea that the club is more important than the player, and for that reason the German teams have the team name above the number and the player name below. But, that doesn't seem to take into account how cameras often frame their shots, where the bottom part of the shirt isn't visible.
Lovely Nketiah, literally just a preseason friendly and he's pressing every chance he gets
He’s fighting for his position right now and I’m loving every second of it.
Tierney is defensively sound. We'll need him at left back when Zinchenko can't keep up.
I know the chances are slim, but I'd love to see Balogun stay at this club

Ben white looking great
Oof, a "play out of the back" goal. Well played Nurnburg.
Saka is pure quality. He never stops
That free kick certainly was a free kick.
Didn't realize there was a chat function on lemmy, that's cool
How did you do that lol
Think it's on the website, I switched over to have a look and I think it's just comments sorted by new (maybe auto refreshes too but not sure)

RCB: 4. White
LCB: 6. Gabriel
LB: 3. Tierney
DM: 20. Jorginho

Myles Lewis-Skelly (playing wearing 59) is only 16 and also doesn't look out of place in this team.

So, the lineup seems to be:
GK: 1. Ramsdale
RB: 4. White
RCB: 2. Saliba
LCB: 6. Gabriel
LB: 15. Kiwior (shifting into central midfield like Zinchenko)
DM: 5. Partey
RCM: 21. Vieira
LCM: 19. Trossard
RW: 7. Saka
CF: 14. Nketiah
LW: 24. Nelson
I'm interested to see how, or if, Timber changes things. Will he invert?
And if he does, does that mean both fullbacks are inverting, or does the left fullback go wide if the right fullback inverts?
Hein still developing his playing out from the back I see.
Wow. A lot of tricky play to get the ball to the middle then it drops for Kiwior who tries an outside-of-the-foot left-footed shot from near the top of the D and hits an Arsenal player (Trossard?) (18 minutes in or so, for someone looking for a fun replay).
Interesting that Kiwior is in that position though. I guess Arsenal is going to play with the left fullback tucking in even when Zinchenko isn't playing.
Good thing the sun is setting. When it's in the sunny section of the pitch it's sometimes invisible.
Just warmed up some rice for the second half 👀
Nwaneri calm down it's a friendly lol
Going in at the start of the second half:
GK: 31. Hein
RB: 17. Cedric
LB: 3. Tierney
DM: 20. Jorginho
CF: 9. Gabriel Jesus
??: 29. Havertz

It's a fucking friendly stop wrestling our players ffs
Checking to see how match threads work on Lemmy. I'm guessing not that well. 8 minutes in, Arsenal is up by 1 goal, and so far only 3 comments showing up for me.
It's showing up fine, most people probably just aren't commenting lol
Well, if the comments do sync in real-time that's great, that means live threads are possible in Lemmy.

Ooooof.
Oh dear.
Oops
Picture quality so bad I can’t say for sure who was last on the ball.
When the action is on the shaded side of the pitch, the people in the sunny side are just white blobs with a bit of red.
Glad it's not just me! Watching on a TV does not help lol
I cant believe this is a tier 2 German side. Can barely tell with numbers whether it's Gabriel or Partey though the hair makes it clear
Balogun 👀
