I know it's premature but why not go 4-3-3 here?

Running rings, so disappointing so far.

Ba man.

Been too respectful, 4-4-2's not looking good so far

Decent video of the away launch, apparently the initial reception of the new kit has been twice as good as last year's.

U serius?

Give me strength. http://www.readytogo.net/smb/showpost.php?p=12556790&postcount=50 Edit:

Nope, a mong by the name of Dexter. 'Statistically, Larsson has had a far better season than Ben Arfa' Read more: http://www.readytogo.net/smb/showthread.php?t=699150&page=4#ixzz1uZBCue5L

Apparently Larsson has, statistically, had a far better season than Ben Arfa despite the latter having 3 more assists and only getting 2 less goals in half the playing time

Why isn't he modelling the keeper kit?

He'll regret this decision, don't think he'll ever have another shot of playing in European competition again, at any level.

Simon Bird is awful.

Got me too, as well as the 'tricolour technician'.

Guna be great to watch him again where he isn't required to put in a massive defensive shift.

Bit of a cycle when you don't have a proper pre-season, lack of fitness for games means you can pick up niggles in earlier games which just knack everything up as it's hard to get a rhythm, i'd actually say the way in which he's been managed this season hasn't been great. Will be great to see him and HBA get a full summer under their belts.

The potential of him and HBA on the right next season is just too good.

I think our (correct) gameplan restricted him more than anything tbh, I have a feeling he had more instructions than usual yesterday to keep shape out wide and not try anything too daring so we wouldn't have been caught on the break. Just not really the right circumstances for him to shine, although he still produced some moments of quality.

As if people would advocate letting go of a good footballer with a good attitude.

"Is it normal practice too haul off 'great' players while you're 0-1 down and desperate for a goal?" Tevez and Nasri both also hauled off today then. Oh look it's Wireside again, talking shit that he doesn't have a clue about. Fucking cunt. Funny cause Ben Arfa shut his mouth longer than Sessegnon did for us.

Wireside claiming he was hauled off today. That bloke's a fucking dickhead.

I don't think i'd want the North-East's people to look like John Carver tbh.

Hope we go there with 4-3-3 and do our thing. They're a good side but I think we have equally dangerous and better players overall, going to be a tough game.

I don't think his attacking game was really suited to the plan today really. I get the feeling that Pards wanted us to be cautious in possession, wary of their threats and that's not really his thing, he barely roamed which is a big part of his game imo. His last 2 games have had to be very disciplined, hopefully he gets more freedom at Everton and we go 4-3-3.

Looked a bit 'timid' at times today, perhaps a little reluctant with our gameplan. Still, had 2 good chances and some nice passes, not really the match for him to shine though.
