Play five strikers and get it in the mixer FFS.

That's not good. Eight blanks in eleven league games. It wasn't the manager that was the problem....

Decent point.

Why not?

We're not woeful. Don't be such a drip.

Hi Jack. Thanks for the rant!

I'd tell him we will consider selling him at the end of whichever season he next gives us 100% effort. Seeing as he's already ****ed this season up for himself that will be summer 2019 earliest.

I wouldn't play that team at home but we're away to a team high on confidence and which is decent in the air song think solidity with a bit of pace on the break makes sense.

Three at the back is an idiotic idea that gets the best out of no-one, purely to accommodate an out-of-shape and half-arsed looking journeyman incapable of leading the line. This should be the team: ---------------------------------Forster/McCarthy-------------------------- Cedric-------------------Yoshida----------------Hoedt-------------Bertrand ---------------------------------Lemina----Romeu------------------------- ------Gabbiadini/Boufal-------------Davis---------------------Redmond--- ---------------------------------Long/Gabbiadini---------------------------

I think Sims would be in his age group if fit.

The tennis equal pay furore is a bit of a joke but it's now considered an outrage if a tournament pays men more.

I was at Prague and Hapoel and we played better in those two matches IMO.

I'd say last night was worse, to be honest.

Hopefully Bert joins in. Horace.

Plan!

I'd consider a "supporting three" of Davis, Redmond and Gabbi with Long leading the line for this onw.

Well, they are correct. They have played two bottom-third teams whilst we have finished or just outside the top third for the last four years.

What does "good enough" mean? Our players are evidently good enough to finish around 8th.

Maybe McCarthy was being saved for the weekend.

Always makes me laugh / shake my head.

He was MoM in our last league match.

My thoughts exactly.

Ahh, yes. Sorry, I should have been clearer. He didn't say Liverpool have bid recently. I assume that was a reference to the initial attempt to sign him. I interpreted his posts as: he now expects him to leave but the only bid was Liverpool's original attempt. I appreciate that my post did not make that at all clear though!

He didn't say Liverpool have bid. Just some vague guff about revealing something after he goes.

Only joking but that was awful. Why the hell persist with three centre backs? No problems with the selection of those eleven players but farting about with the system was utterly pointless. Even so, we could have rearranged at half time with no harm done. Puel would have got absolutely slaughtered for that.
