Looks like a 3-5-2 / 5-3-2

Nice

 

[TommyK]

Hmmmmm

 

[City Fan]

Back 5! Three centre backs and Vestergaard still can’t get a game

It’s interesting

 

[Micky]

We need a January transfer window don't we.

 

[ThaiSweetChilli]

Interesting formation.

Trying to win that midfield battle

 

[M17TT C]

Happy to see us try something different as what we were previously attempting was clearly not working.

Not sure about Thomas coming in though but hopefully he proves me wrong.

 

[popillius]

Kristiansen out, Vestergaard back in the squad. That's a bit better. I don't get Coady over Vestergaard however.

 

[Brown Nose]

I looked at that line up and my first thought was "**** me, that's terrible".

However, when you look on the bench, we've not really got a lot that would improve it.

Kristiansen is every bit as shit as Thomas. And so on.

I can't quite believe that El Khannouss isn't in the line up as he was easily our best player last week.

I'm all for Coady in the centre of a back three. It is where he is far and away the best he can be. It will be really interesting to see whether he can make the defence look like one.

 

[TommyK]

No Winks at all. Is he injured?

 

[popillius]

Both Coady and El Khannouss have been shite almost every single time they have played. Neither deserve a start in reality but I am glad that we've gone for a different defensive shape.

Guess we shall see what unfolds.

 

[jb5000]

Coady offers leadership in a squad short of it, I can see the sense in going to a back three just so that has somewhere to fit in

 

[SilverFox]

No Winks at all. Is he injured?

He misses Enzo and his little heart can’t take it.

 

[Miles Away]

Nice to see Hamza on the bench.

 

[Miles Away]

Also, I think Thomas is as good a shout as Kristiansen

 

[Graz]

Luke Thomas out of nowhere.

Interesting to see the caretaker make such big changes.

5-2-2-1 Christmas tree formation to start the festive season?

 

[londonfox]

No Winks at all. Is he injured?

Yep. It’s the injury that forced him off against Chelsea. He trained but not available for this game according to the press conference yesterday

 

[homer]

At least it’s different

It all looks ****ing shite, but at least it’s different

Let’s hope the approach/attitude is as well

 

[Micky]

Yep, it's a pretty poor set of players (at premier league level).

 

[homer]

Looking forward to seeing Choudhury, Daka and De Cordova Reid coming on later to change the game
