Moyes, Big Sam and Fergie sat next to each other. Big Sam and Fergie deep in conversation, Sam sneezes into his hand. He then taps Moyes on the shoulder with said hand...

I'm not watching but are there any ex-players involved or this just basically a pre-season friendly? bit like Rio's was?

No ex players at all, both full PL match day squads basically.

Line ups in the OP

Martial has been disappointing so far.

I noticed, I didn't see Everton's subs, wondered if they had a couple of his former Everton team mates on the bench or something.

It's pretty poor really, testimonials used to be a chance for the player to have a kick-about and a laugh with his old mates, now it's just another pre-season game with some pomp and ceremony added.

Martial still angry at Zlatan for stealing his number, ensuring he doesn't score by running every ball out of play or crossing it over the bar.

I think it's more to do with the timing, we've not had much of a pre-season and both teams need the fitness.

If this had come at the end of the season, i'm sure there would have been some older faces and players like Ronaldo etc.

Ibra been really good so far. Links play very well and reckon he'll be exactly what we need up front

I don't think Jose expected Everton to play with 3 at the back. Good for us anyway.

Subs added to the OP now, forgot to add them earlier.

Good link up play form him so far, coming a bit too deep though at times.

Lingard/Martial sometimes getting into a good position and he's still behind the play.

Big season for Shaw

Shaw is rapid, always has been, would have him in top 3 at our club once he gets going.
