It won't tho as SerieA bar prob 3 or 4 teams is a a fair bit slower and tactical than the EPL. In the EPL you have probably bar the 3 newly promoted most sides have a serious amount of physicality/pace/skill. With his favoured formation (for the EPL) you have to have 2 almost world class cms like Kante to hold the midfield together or you just get bypassed regardless if one of you cbs is stepping out. Amorim is finding out exactly the same and they've a damn site better cms than us as he's another basing his formation in a slower league

Trying to play like your still in SerieA won't work in EPL

And hereby lies the problem, we were so far off being prepared for epl, be it from RM, Sports Republic, the finances, pretty much most facets we got wrong

I agree to an extent to the above but you've got to take into account Fraser, Manning, Wood and Lumley I believe where all his 'mates' from previous

I guess it would be if we'd won that 1 game against Ipswich with the same formation and tactics as today which we didn't, but you carry on trying to pick holes in other posters ,

What a load of crap, most play either 4231 or variation of 433, unless uv 2 class cm our formation won't work, exactly like Man utd, yes our attackers are shit but when a chance falls in the box due to some sort of weird tactics it's a fucking shit Manning whose on the end of it, coupled with Aribo in at cb, it's a weird surreal disorganised mess. With Welington now here it is a perfect chance to get a bit of balance. With him Lb kwp rb with Thb and bednerek cbs, then play Les and either Downes/Gronbaek as a double pivot and protection, Sully then left, Fernandes acm with Dibling right (yes I know he was awful today) then let Tall paul and Archer fight for the striker role . Yes we probably won't win more than 1 more game but ffs go back to basics and stop trying to be so clever

As well as technical skill and motivation

Lol at Bree just stood watching

I like Juric and what he has to say but f**k another wedded to a formation, and more so an awful formation with odd player positioning

A really dislikeable team

And we are

They are indeed but still want them to batter spurs tonight

Maybe he's gone all Peter Odemwingie and parked his car outside Portman Rd

Think it was the fa put pay to Satellite academies , something along those lines

Maybe in his time away his wrists have been to the gym

Cheap flights to Istanbul and take in Galatasaray v Fenebache, think it's on the 9th

I'm sure we were linked a few seasons back

The chelsea game should've been 10, also last year think it was hull that gave us a right pasting

Well RM said himself he was too loyal

Omg it's not to do with our pace it's to do with opponents, in the epl it's significantly faster and stronger than a lot of leagues so the 2 in midfield do not work as per Man utd

People don't understand that, especially that comment from mlg, shows he's no clue

The issue is the formation coupled with the players and recruitment has been abysmal

He is, but it's not his fault the formation is fucking atrocious and any 2 cm's that arnt Kante will fail

Not related too much but Jimmy Jay Morgan has gone to Gillingham on loan

I like him but he's another who's wedded to a formation, yes we've crap players but worryingly we lose the midfield a lot due to his favoured formation, no coincidence one of our best performances was against utd who also play the same 343 formation. Despite all the hipster tactics of cb's moving into midfield it doesn't work, your asking a bunch of ltd footballing cb's to become a cm in the strongest league in the world, one where Mikel Damsgarrd looked like prime Iniesta against us, sorry but set up you best back 4 then build from there, get that right then the options of 4231/4132/4141 or 433 become so much better suited to the Epl
