I think that goes down as a very productive friendly match in many ways. Good workout - now just chain some of the Chelsea players to the dressing room.

Forget the competion, forget the result, you nailed it with ‘goes down as a very productive friendly match in many ways’ Wellens would have I am sure got more from that than the result suggests, even if we had won. Look at it as a behind closed doors exercise, only someone left the doors open.

I've obviously missed something but watching the goals I see we have moved the away dugout down the touch line, any reason for this or just keeping the away manager away from the 4th official?

Lad from Norwich injured in training and wearing a protective boot. Hopefully nothing too serious.

Good game.
TD can still do a good job if he remains & is called upon.
Do the Chelsea shirt numbers reflect expected weekly salary for the next contracts?

Chang mentioned this a couple of weeks ago, when I first heard about it..... I invited him to explain, but thus far he hasn't. I was interested as to whether his ezplanation was the same as what I heard.

I had heard it was to stop the visiting team being able to constantly go at the 4th official.

RW said it was to minimise distractions for himself and his staff.

Yep, he said that on Saturday. He requested it be moved further down the line.

So TD (salary apart) viable, Iandolo and McGlashan not? Not sure why Henry didn't play? The game seemed an ideal opportunity to give him 1st team match practice.

Wellens is after that fourth goalkeeper and if that happens there's no point playing Henry as he'll be number 3.

I read it more as a "cheap" way of putting one of the four first teamers out to minimise risk of injury/tiredness. Though, to be fair I haven't checked on whether we only had the minimum four required out at the start of the game.

That Chelsea team would probably make most teams at L2 level look immobile, but TD looked decent. Didn't think he had it in him, but would still expect him to find another club this month. Yeah, was expecting Henry to play. Either not trusted by RW or being lined up for another loan if the trial keeper is signed. Looks like same again next Tuesday for the selection. A shame as would like to see us progress in that competition for a change. But, understandable given 8 games to get through in August and league should be the priority.
