LV Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 I think Supertoon’s 3-4-3 makes more sense Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRD Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 If we cannot make sense of the formation and gameplan, it sure does give Brentford something to think about. Happy to see how it goes. Exciting days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sifu Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 I'd forgotten how strenuous it is walking up those stairs to L7 Regarding the line up, wouldn't have Clark in there but will trust that Howe will have them set up fine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khalidao Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 LCFC are getting hammered by Chelsea 0-3 on their own turf. I guess Greame Jones = Brenden Rodgers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clark being our only left footed centre-back also makes sense for his inclusion in that left sided centre-back role. Howe used this setup at times with Bournemouth so no surprise we've lined up this way against a team with a 3 at the back formation. Excited for this and really looking forward to it.

Think the balance of that back 3 looks good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thumbheed Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Interesting none of us could figure out what formation we could be playing, which says less about us and more about the fact we learnt fuck all about the players the last 2 years.

Anything is possible I guess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_NUFC Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Happy to see Schar back in the lineup. But no DM worries me, visions of a porous and non-existent midfield from Bruce era are hard to shake off, and that was when we were starting Hayden. It feels pretty naked now in the middle. Let’s hope I’m wrong. Howay the lads! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really don't get the complaining over these players at this point. It's who we have until January, and it's very clear the last manager was doing the absolute minimal in any kind of preparation each week. Fully prepared to see what they can all show under the new boss, without worrying about what has gone on previously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're not going to be sat in our box all game defending anymore. Murphy and Ritchie are going to be causing more problems for the opposition at the other end of the pitch.
