    Probable line up for Wolfsburg...

    Sportiello
    Tomovic-----Hugo-----Astori-----Olivera
    Veretout-----Cristoforo
    Rebic-----M. Fernandez-----Chiesa
    Babacar
    I've never watched Veretout but from what I've read about him, I don't think there's enough grit in that midfield. If Badelj leaves we really need an adept, defensive-minded, center mid.

    Man, Chiesa can't stop scoring pre season huh.

    Oh and seems like the Madrid friendly has been cancelled for whatever reason (likely since it cuts into Calcio schedule)

    Chiesa is maybe one of better young talents U21 nobody is talking about in Europe

    We win 0-3.

    Eysseric, then Babacar, converted penalties. Then Rebic scored late.

    Watched the highlights. Seemed like the team wasn't really trying. Or maybe underestimating a Serie C side

    Well Pistoia is just right down the road so I'm sure they weren't trying to put a beat down on them.

    I missed the game. We tied 0-0.

    Anything to note?

    We moved well at times. They still have a lot of work to do to get into season-reasy shape. The most noteworthy thing, though, was that Kalinic did not play.

    If we do get Simeone we'll have a very youthful squad, it should make for a fun season (at least from individual players perspectives)

    Madrid has had most of the possession. We've been dangerous at times, though. I missed the first half.

    Does RM have Tello's brother or something? I feel like I've heard his name a dozen times.

    Alvaro Tejero is who you're probably referring to. No relation

    No. I was listening to Spanish broadcasters.... I'd know the difference between Tejero and Tello.

    I just looked at their roster. Do they call Theo Hernandez by his first name? If so, it had to be him.

    Yeah. Tay-yo versus Tay-o in Spanish pronunciation.
