HaydnNUFC Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 If we persist with 4 at the back I'd go; Dubravka Manquillo Lascelles Schär Lewis Willock Hayden Shelvey Joelinton Wilson Maxi Have Hayden drop into the centre to make a back 5 when we need it which will probably be all game. I cannot bear to watch Longstaff on the ball in our own half under pressure at Anfield, makes me feel nauseous. If by some miracle we're only losing by 1 or drawing bring Miggy on as a ball carrier to relieve pressure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Jinx Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 (edited) Same backline, as much as I detest Lascelles currently, I want Clark nowhere near the team again. Drop ASM for Murphy. Hayden in for Willock. Dubs Manq Schär Lascelles Lewis Hayden Shelvey Almiron Murphy Wilson Joelinton Edited December 15, 2021 by Dr Jinx Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dubs Manq Schär Lascelles Lewis Hayden Shelvey Almiron Ritchie Wilson Joelinton So drop ASM for Murphy, then leave him out your line up ? That's mean, dropping him for someone you'd not even play.

PlymouthGeordie Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 (edited) I'd bench/rest ASM tonight. Has a history of muscle injuries with us and we're going to need all 11 to put a real shift in, something he either can't or won't do. Ultimately, whatever line up we pick we're unlikely to get anything. I think I'd go 4-1-4-1. Dubravka Manquillo Lascelles Clark (rest Schar for City). Lewis Hayden Fraser Shelvey Anderson/Hendrick Miggy Wilson/Gayle So definitely resting ASM, Joelinton, Schar and maybe Wilson with a workmanlike midfield and pace in Fraser and Miggy to break. If we keep picking ASM and Wilson every game they'll just break down at some point. Basically just use the squad where possible.

The Prophet Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 At Bournemouth Howe liked to deploy wingback v the better sides. I think we might see a back three of Schar, Lascalles and Krafth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
South-Cheshire-Toon Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 The thing is that he can't play too much of a defensive line up for the simple fact that it would be like the first 10 games we've played this season - backs to the wall and trying to hit them on the break, issue here is that we'd lose the ball midfield, and with too many people going forward then we'd be open to a 'right fucking'. So he's got to balance the defensive side of things with the possibility of having some sort of attacking prospect in the line up as well. So for me, I'd go with a 3-5-1-1 sort of formation, Dubs Manq Schär Lascelles fraser or murphy Hayden Shelvey willock ritchie or Almiron Joelinton Wilson With Fraser, Shelvey and Ritchie being able to drop back 'if needed' - like all the time. Let's see what happens. Fancying 3-1 to them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
