Jred posted down the page that BS needs to lose a couple of stone. I posted a similar thing on Sunday but it didn't show. He's clearly a legend but he does look very big. I thought a few of the players looked slightly out of shape, perhaps pre season was a bit too relaxed this year. We had Darmian going off, Mata with cramp in both legs, Rooney looked sluggish (perhaps he just is now). Let's hope we can sharpen fitness up quickly although I think BS needs some sort of formal programme

Yea don't think they had a strenuous pre season didn't look sharp on sat!! Rooney lost up on his own and thought Memphis had a quiet game !! Dissapointed in our offensive play virtually non existant

Yeah , sorry guys. I have to admit I have gained a few pounds over the last couple of years. To be fair though , I am pushing 42 now so a bit of the old middle age spread is to be expected. Tell you what though , I could still outrun that tub of lard Rooney.

Maybe I'll start cutting out the carbs and sugars from now on. Thanks for the kick up the arse AJH , I probably needed it in all fairness.

AJH - it was also interesting to read that Pep said 'on his day BS is a phenomenal player but is unfit and has been for a while now'. He also said the Bayern team spent a lot of time trying to get him into the best possible shape but couldn't quite get him there.

If fit he will be an unbelievable player for us but a lot of work has to be done by the player and the club over the next few months in my opinion.

Betty, that may have been the first time I have smiled whilst reading this page in quite a while.
