Dave Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 No idea what to make of that. It doesn't really matter anyway, not like Gayle or Joselu are banging them in. Rumour has it Mitrovic scored a double hat-trick for the reserves but Rafa popped the ball at full time with a compass. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest neesy111 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Perez upfront? Played his best football for up front when he first arrived. Played upfront a couple of times last year as well didn’t he? Cant remember if he played well when he did mind. Brighton at home. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordiedean Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 I'm sorry but that selection just reeks of not even wanting to have a go for the 3 points Does he actually have a clue as to what is his strongest most threatening team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 I'm sorry but that selection just reeks of not even wanting to have a go for the 3 points Does he actually have a clue as to what is his strongest most threatening team What nonsense. It reeks of setting up a pacey team to counter attack away from home. Would you prefer long balls to Joselu? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 They'll be whacking it up to Crouch, we'll be looking to counter attack. Won't be fun to watch but we might score one of those mythical goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcjb Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Seeing that we played less than 72 hours ago, I couldn't give a f*** what the team was today because it was definitely being to be absolute p*ss. Rafa could have picked another team and it'd still be s***. He has an infinity amount of s*** players at his disposal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 The key will be the three behind Ayoze, Murphy, Ritchie and Atsu have got to turn up today, there's not enough goals coming from any of them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris_R Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 It's all about our intent really, more than the team. If we sit back for 80 minutes before trying to attack, it'll be as bad as ever. Desperate to see us go forward for once. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughesy Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Only complaint I have is Diame really. Would much rather see merino or saivet there. Don't see a problem with Perez upfront. Best football he's played has been up there and I think his skill will be useful vs Stoke centre halves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Away Day Gadgie Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Interesting team. Perez played his best football for us as a striker in his first appearances IMO. Let's see how he does. I'm hoping Ritchie is used through the middle with Atsu and Murphy out wide, i think we'd be a lot more productive that way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
