It's not even that, it's not 442 or 433, we need more fluidity further forward. We see what Tonali can do, same Bruno, I'm now thinking 451. Back 4, Isak up front and 5 in the middle doing the rest (kind of Italy of late). When we attack, unless it's a break we stop 25yds outside we have little movement and end up with no one in the box. In this situation we are better off with Wilson than Isak but Isak better on the break. We're caught between two stools, the break or the domination and we don't have the personnel for both.

Think Hall and Tino last year.

Alvin Martin scored a hat trick of penalties against us when West Ham beat is 8-1. I'm an old fuck who loathes " .. in the Premier" stats. Against 3 different keepers as well.

How does going multi club affect the finances we are already struggling with ? Can we afford the loan players wages given thebrudiculousbsums some are on and our FFP ? Proactive workarounds, give me an idea of some ? Are Man City going to court ? and the reason I'd guess is that they don't think they'd get enough of a victory to radically change things. There's low hanging fruit I'm surprised hasn't been used. Trying ground and kit sponsor for example, our own Christmas decoration partner etc etc.

They are only in a position to use those hacks because they were allowed to spend freely and without fear, not to mention ludicrous sponsorships that provide a huge part of their revenue.

No no don't like this. Floated to the back post please. No sense of tradition.

Moving all right now. Pulled us sharp grabbing his hamstring minutes ago

Looks like Gordon's done his hammy

Look like we've come straight out the bar for the 2nd half

We don't actually look too bad bringing it out from the back but have few ideas when we get to about 25yds from goal.

He played plenty on the right at Everton and started his career here there as well. His form recently even on the left hasn't been great.

You'll find Trippier does that whoever is with him even at International level.

I said this to mates in the ground, couldn't understand it. If Willock plays it has to be in tandem with Joelinton.

True. Isak's not a goalie.

Nah. That's how they see themselves.

Yip, it'll be interesting to see who they bring in. Could be a Adkins out Poch in situation.

How are they going to bend this to tye advantage of a certain few clubs ?

Yeah I wasn't disputing it, just adding colour to it. And re the Gillingham game bit, I dont know about West Ham but there were loads of Mags there and there was a good relationship between us and them built over it which lasted a while.

The silence at the Tranmere game was for Jamie Bulger. It was people outside queueing to get in who were making noise and wouldn't have known was going on. It was an open terrace so there was nothing to stop the noise. I was there.

I couldn't really imagine myself disliking The Futureheads or Field Music because of where they're from.

That was more the times than acoustics. The acoustics recently were fine against PSG, Arsenal etc.

For me it all depends on what they come up with, Castle Leazes OK, similar the Newcastle College area. Further out than that, Benton, Gosforth, would be problematic. Using the current footprint means playing somewhere (?) else for 2 or 3yrs. I'm awaiting their more concrete ideas.

Fantastic line always gets me.

Oh so you were the famous West Denton Mackem
