You might want to see that line up, but I think the chance of us starting with a team that attacking, is fairly minimal.

Indeed.

It'll be Justin at Right Back and Ndidi, Winks and Skipp in the middle.

Mavididi may get a start.

That's the first selection that puzzles me.

Surely you haven't signed five attackers to only play three every game?

 

[glyn]

Vesty back to where he was last time we were in the Prem, then.

 

[Miles Away]

He’s scared to play away from home.

Anyway, tactic will be to keep it tight, and release the various attacking options around the 70 minute mark.

Problem he has is we have not shown ourselves to be able to keep a team out that long yet.

 

[homer]

Close your eyes for seventy minutes, until he puts a ****ing attacking midfielder on, 'cos this will be ****ing grim

 

[Miles Away]

And oh yeah. 3 year deal for Vesty and the toys are already out of the pram.

Ze system is all that matters...

 

[Miles Away]

I understand what he’s trying to do - fill the 11 with experienced premier league players. It won’t be long until Cordova Reid is preferred to Mavididi or Fatawu.

The knives are being sharpened, ffs

Was blatantly obvious it would be the same setup, having done so well against a Champions League team.

 

[Volpone]

Vesty back to where he was last time we were in the Prem, then.

Obviously one of those briefing the press and therefore being frozen out.

Three every game?
It’s been two ****ing games!

He’s the type of manager who mixes it up depending on the opposition, rather than sticking to ze system

Have a missed something or is this just based on him not making the bench?

 

[City Fan]

Good. Thankfully it hasn’t taken Cooper long to realise he’s a car crash at this level.

Was that the case mate, or was it more that we were better with Buenenotti (sp) on the pitch?

For the record I don’t think it’s a bad starting 11, we need to win the midfield to stand a chance in my opinion

I’m about there with you Alex.

We did well all match I thought. And then yes of course we were better in a more attacking sense when Buonanotte came on when we were 2-0 down and we went balls deep, leaving ourselves susceptible on the counter. It will be kamikaze to do that from minute one.

You didn't watch that game, did you.

It hasn't. He isn't

Bang on otherwise.
