A bit like Amorim, 1st time in 18mths played a 4231 against Newcastle, got the 3 points, then prompty changed back to 3/5 the following game and were awful and held 1v1 by Wolves as they didnt control the midfield

And the fact that Strasbourg and Chelsea are owned by same management company So effectively interal promotion

Looks like Wood walked off saying ' fucking shit pass' lol

Nesta, Costacurta, Terry, Hierro and Kohler all no good as they were an inch off

I can't stand the 3/5 at the back but also agree 433 wont work because of our fbs so to me it has to be a 4231 or even a 4141 the issue with latter is we haven't the Rodri type player to take the ball from cbs on the half turn to feed the more creative guys, if it were to be Downes it would just be recycled to THB who suddenly thinks he can ping 60yd cross field balls like he did yesterday and pretty much all went out of play or lost possession

Lydon dykes to come on and bully Stephens for the winner

McCarthy Jelert THB Quarshie ? Downes Jander Fellows Azaz Leo AA So you can clearly fit them in playing a 4, also if the 3 are a bit offensive then move Jander into Azaz position, then Bragg/Charles/Romeu(if fit) can fill in. Granted we need a bigger better 9 and a fit Jelert/Roeslav to attempt to have a couple of fb's

Was it not 'out there' that he said the data supports 3/5atb

Apart from 4atb gives you and extra person in midfield, which is why we can get over run, keeps full backs back slightly so Manning wont get caught up field like he does, releases Fellows into his favoured position, 'should' be better communication from 2 cbs between themselves for who goes/drops/picks up unless we go zonal. Less space in behind to put in all these crosses and gives you options of 433, 4231 4141 all whilst trying to build a somewhat as best we can cb pairing which granted is difficult

Wasn't Turki al sheik rumoured to be looking for a football club to buy

We'll be lucky to get a point

Which was ridiculous knowing Stewarts injury record but that's not the same situation as Leo. Fellows if not fit shouldn't have started especially in one of the most demanding positions

Lost to another experienced manager

It was Romeu poor tackle and awful team shape but to top it the ball went into the centre of goal , hope that helps

Lol at Baz

Ryan are you going to stop any crosses today....... nah fuck it we've 3 cbs to deal with them

Rasmus wants Rasmus gets

And Manager

Your not going to turn down £1.5m a yr on 3yr contract despite knowing you may be asked to play a certain way. There's evidence of other teams, Forest, Chelsea etc where the owners are interfering so whose not to say its happening here, it may or may not be happening you or I wont know, but for me there are enough snippets to think something is/has been going on

Only because Cunha didn't want to score so nearly fucked it up

Difficult to tell but looks like his weight is on his right foot possibly trying to see the ball, I agree it was a really good strike and would probably gone in anyway but id like to see him across a yard, from where Gray is shooting then its unlikely to be going near post, strikes from there generally go far post

It's amazing the space they get when we've 5atb

It's all about sucking up to Trump

Im not his biggest fan but I say that was genuine, he's a west ham fan and a good chance so is some of his family, a game against Millwall knowing the rivalry would've meant a lot

Or tripping over himself
