Blackburn beating Leicester now, incredible seeing at how bad they were against us last week. 

Blackburn don't look that bad. Bottom 4 now, if Norwich pick up 3 then even more pressure on players to get result.

5 at the back LOLOL

Of course, we will have our usual 30-35 min purple patch, probably score and miss a few, but be wide open in the middle of the park as always.

You can’t complain that you don’t have the players to play a back 4 when you have a right back and a left back in the starting line up. Better fucking win now or he’s only got himself to blame when the fans turn.

No Welington, guess he's injured again? Thought Downes was out, or was he caught in a lie and told to stop fucking around as he's under contract?

Welington suspended after his red at Blackburn. 
 

Wonder if it might be Azaz as a false 9 and AA on the left.

Welllington is suspended

Downes was never out, but had a knock to the knee in training and needed to be assessed

Fellows for a CB and that's the team. But Will Still will still not.

Just reverse it and you might be right.

Congrats Jack, today you're playing on the right wing 🤦

Yet again Will Still claimed in his press conference that 4-2-3-1 is his favoured formation. So why does he keep persisting with this 5 at the back rubbish? If we fail to win here SURELY that's it.

If it goes tits up today, it's going to be hard to justify keeping him

Can’t be sacked if he’s following orders

Fuck off will. If we lose today there should be riots.

There'll be boos, countered with light applause for the effort (and to Dragan)

I think we will win (unconvincingly)

Look at those players - where is the creativity coming from? Scienza and Azaz? So many defensive first players, so imbalanced. 

 

Jander and Downes are going to have to play forward

Absolutely fucking pathetic. Still is the biggest coward we’ve ever had as manager. Harped on all summer about 4-2-3-1 and point blank refuses to play it because he’s a massive ginger pussy. 

Fuck off Will, whether we win today or not quite frankly.

What's the fucking point of us signing fellows if we never play him and the rare times we do it's out of position?

"hybrid wingback"

I'm guessing Azaz will play as a false nine. But I just don't get it, a lot of our problems are because when we play with a back 3, they just recycle the ball endlessly, especially with Manning / THB in combo.

3 CBs but once again not one of them is Stephens.

I’ll give Still one thing, he’s not obsessed by the magnificence of Capt Jack !

For that alone I hope he turns things around.

Azaz will play 'from' wide, I should imagine.

We will be WIIIIIIDE open in the middle of the park, that is for sure. 

Unless Edwards is actually going to play further forward?
