AY Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 I think Sissoko, Perez and Thauvin might be changing places a lot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Colback gets first crack at the holding spot I see. My prediction? He will get sent off today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Simpson referred to Perez, Cisse and Thauvin as a " front 3 " i'm hoping that means Sissoko isn't playing on the wing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Colback gets first crack at the holding spot I see. My prediction? He will get sent off today. Well no. He'll do what he always does. Plays average-to-shit, get booked, then hide for the rest of the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Slightly better but Colback over Anita is one I'll never understand. Should've been bolder. I'm pretty happy with that actually because as I've said already I believe Anita playing as a third centre half when we had the ball was killing us going forward bear that in mind when we're hoofing the ball up from the back because colback is trying to hide inside someone's shorts rather than take the ball in a precarious area That would still be as effective as what Anita was doing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinport53 Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Look at the positives. Gini is deeper and Ayoze is starting. It's progress. I am pleased by those two changes, but we are still pissing in to the wind through allowing the following... Cisse playing No De Jong Sissoko wide Useless Ginger c*** playing I want a win today, Cisse better make up for his dogshit performance and attitude last game. Totally agree But it's better than persisting with last weeks XI. Hopefully see De Jong get atleast 30 minutes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
relámpago blanco Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Listening to Paul Simpsons comments I think its 433 with sissoko and winjaldum central, colback in dm and Perez and Thauvin wide. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Colback for Anita and that's near enough what I'd play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 That's probably our best team in this formation tbh. Maybe Anita in for Colback and presumably Mitrovic in for Cisse.

Ikon Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Despite having an awful game last time (like most) i must say that i'm happy Thauvin's not being dropped at first chance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BONTEMPI Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Despite having an awful game last time (like most) i must say that i'm happy Thauvin's not being dropped at first chance. Needs to be down the right tbh. Plays a blinder against albeit a lower division side, but the understanding between him and Janmaat was there for all to see. So what happens, he's not been played there since. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be delighted if we kept possession and I'd also be happy with Anita starting if we did it in better areas but instead we play with our midfielder dropping between the two centre halves and it just wasn't working. As I've said before it's management's fault not Anita's but if him getting dropped means abandoning this tactic then I'm happy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
