Nine

We wont be

Could mean a back 5 then, are options for WBs at the moment are so weak though.

Thats not what I said at all

Again it makes no sense at all to put Joe out wide, we would be a far weaker side for it. The case for Bruno starting would be for WIllock, Miggy as the left footer coming in for ASM and moving Joe onto the right side of the middle with Bruno coming in on the left as Miggy is a great ball carrier and can take us up field relieving pressure and shifting it inside for the more creative than Willock Bruno. Still unlikely I think, if Wilson was fit I could see it but not today like.

Yeah thats why I'd keep Joe in the middle, absolutely mental to take him out of the position hes been doing so well in to stick him further forward out wide when thats the weakest part of his game and Willock is no wide player. Assuming no formation change the midfield should stay the same imo, ASM a like for like swap with Miggy or Murphy.

Because our left sided forward is out we must bring in a CM?? Understand everyone wants to see him start but it feels like even if Schar gets injured people will find a way of making it about Bruno starting

Alot will depend on how long they knew of ASMs injury, if it was picked up against Villa we could see a change in formation to accomodate for it but if hes picked it up in training in the last couple of days we'll see a straight swap for Miggy/Murphy I think. Also Almiron is not shite given the right role

Think we lose to much bite and raw energy in the middle with this option

Fuck sake, assuming he'll just start Almiron rather than shift Willock over

Whats the story with his finger?

Targett left wing

That question has them rattled

The twisting when we next lose a game that he doesnt start in is going to be epic like

If we get a point the bottom 3s fixtures could easily mean we get another point clear of 18th, going to be a difficult game for us without Trippier and against a good side so a point would be a great result overall

I remember that now you've said it

I don’t remember Krul getting the Colback treatment mind

I’m not so sure on that one tbh, but I know we have seen him subbed in for Willock which could be a hint to where Howe sees him playing

I want to see Bruno start as much as anyone but I just can’t see how we can drop anyone out of midfield at the moment, Shelvey has consistently been one of our best players since Howe came in

Wtf Rangers!

Worth noting that Eze is under the same agency as Trips/Wood.

Is this their biggest meltdown ever?
