Stottie Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Don't understand why Almiron's not playing, I think we need to evaluate him before the summer. The rest is in Eddie we trust! He changed things up at short notice against Chelsea and that game went very well. I don't know if Howe likes that formation, but the players he's picked could play 3-5-2 with Murphy and Targett as wingbacks and Willock or Joelinton as second striker.

No harm in putting him in the shop window though. Whilst we don’t need the money, cash coming in for our disposable players will be beneficial for FFP.

Big River Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 in Howe we trust. howay the lads! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 I'd prefer ASM up front to Joelinton. I just think Joelinton looked very poor as a lone striker. He was too slow and not good at holding the ball up from that position. Not a great finisher either. ASM provides some sort of threat with his pace.

This is true, but maybe he’ll be given instructions to hold up the ball and connect with the wide forwards. If so it might be OK. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 There needed to be some changes with us playing 3 games in a week and our team is full of shite players, so I'm not sure Eddie could field a much better team than this. That being said, if it is Joelinton up front he's on drugs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Fantastic to see that despite guiding us to 40 points with 5 games to spare, some are still unwilling to give Howe the benefit of the doubt. I wasn't expecting that many changes, but on paper the team is good enough to beat Norwich. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it is man, may as well just never discuss the team or line up ever then ? I also said last week I don't like Almiron on the right because he's too one footed just before he cut in from the right and smashed it into the top corner with his left ?♂️ it's a football forum that's what we do.

Yorkie Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 I trust every individual decision and I'm sure most have been made on account of players' fitness, but I think we'll probably lose. Take the squad's one capable striker out and everything kinda goes to shit. That's why we made the panic buy that we did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Multiple mentions recently of Gayle being the best trainer at the club surprises me, whenever I've seen recent footage from sessions he looks to be moving like a pensioner Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
