That said, I think he'll stick with his system. He thought he could tinker yesterday and it failed. He has to go back to his strongest line up. Lose, and he could be out of a job on Monday.

I'd get Harrison back on the left. Sinsiterra on the right. I know Sini likes the left better, but he can play right and looks better there than trying to play Harrison anywhere but the left.

And, for god's sakes, we have to play Cooper. He's our manager at the back.

Mesler, Kristenssen, Strujik, Koch, Cooper, Roca, Adams, Sinsiterra, Aaronson, Harrison, Bamford
Agree with all this. Saves me having to repeat it. I would add that Bamford is on borrowed time for me and tomorrow is his chance to do the business. Harrison should play left where he tends to do well, and let Aaronson play through the middle where he does well in tight spaces.

Usual invite, anyone attending who would like to say hello or have a quick pint, drop me a Pm, it’d be great to see you.
Which posters are meeting up with, Davy? I assume you are in the Peacock prior to the game.

Gnonto played for the U21s today, does he make the bench tomorrow or is Struijk back and that’s why he played today?

When Strujik was fit, Gnonto didn't make the bench. He only played 45, but I suspect that's just to keep him available as emergency back up. Same for Gyabi.

Should be Leon, that’s the plan.

Eire is over with the WOI supporters club, and we hope to see the legend that is Jammy too. There are several from that other forum due to show face as well.

Mesler, Kristenssen, Strujik, Koch, Cooper, Roca, Adams, Sinsiterra, Aaronson, Harrison, Bamford
I’m not sure on Roca, he hasn’t really done anything wrong but he isn’t doing what he was brought in to do, sideways and backwards passing in the main, dosnt really play too many impactful balls forward and dosnt drive with the ball. Adams can handle the defensive side and Maybe pull Aaronson back a bit who has the ability to drive the ball through midfield and stick bamford upfront with Rodrigo or Gelhardt just behind. Might give us a bit more.

That's a possibility since it's how we started the 2nd half v Leicester

After that Leicester spectacle i've a funny feeling our clown is sticking his oar in.

I had a funny feeling he was getting moody at Bert for not even entertaining never mind playing some of his 'superbuys'

So i'm picking Berts brains here, there's no way Bert kept trying and trying and persisting with trying to get something out of the likes of Roberts, so why did he have him ahead of ALL of Orta's buys, was it because he thought they were even worse ? Perhaps he knew they were miles off Prem class, it's ok Joffy coming on here and there for 5-10 mins as a supersub but why is nobody trusting him for a full game, didn't someone try once i can't remember ?

Bert would've fcked Orta off point blank, and that's a possible reason it could've got the clowns back up.

Now is he trying to meddle again and starting to insist his buys are good enough but Jesse thinks different same as Bert ?

WE've got people here begging for the youth ( :wave: hello Faaip) now are they good enough to be thrown in at the deep end ?

Don't forget the manager is with them day in and day out, the lunatics here only watch highlight reels and even if live game they're only playing against under 21's ffs.

Time will tell.

No need.

Jesse was 20/1 maybe a week or 10 days ago.
Did I read Frank is negotiating a new contract. Maybe he’s holding back for a big wedge from Villa

What’s the weather like in Leeds. Pissing down in Suffolk. Do we like heavy going?
