Lush Vlad Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 I think we would be far better off with Burn at CB than LB. His last two games have arguably been his best of the season. So I hope he stays there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazzy Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 3 minutes ago, Ben said: Why do we have two full backs on the bench and not in the team ? Because as Howe said neither have trained all week and both are recovering from injury. Sensible thing not to put them straight back in, unlike what we did previously this season and rushing players back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cf Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Fucking hell the state of that bench and starting defence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decky Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 I can see both teams getting a few. Could be a 4-3 again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Novocastrian Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 (edited) We need everything we hit to go in. Hoping Isak, Barnes or Gordon have golden balls today. Edited April 13 by Novocastrian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

80 Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Praying that's a 5-3-2 or some equivalent... Putting Burn at left back given his last couple of performances at CB makes me want to vomit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 I think Barnes will be on the left. So Howe might want the insurance of Burn behind him. Not exactly a great choice. But I think I’d rather Krafth against Johnson than Burn and leave BDB in a position where he has been playing so well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t be surprised if Murphy plays like prime Cafu today. I don’t actually hate this lineup that much. Just wish Burn would stay CB and we shift Krafth to LB. Lesser of two evils imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc123 Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 (edited) If true dont like Burn back on the LB. Played his best at CB lately. Krafth is not a CB, and is poor enough in his best position. Edited April 13 by nufc123 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very sceptical about the second. I'm waiting to be pleasantly surprised by the performance today. Not expecting anything though and that's how I'd prefer it for now.

LiquidAK Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Not feeling too confident, but normally when I feel that way Howe pulls out a blinder and we get a result, so fuck knows Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 1 minute ago, Sufi said: I think this one is justified with the number format and the lineup haha. We are keeping Spurs guessing right up until the last minute. No way they have prepped for a front 3 of Burn, Longstaff and Bruno. We’ll shit ‘em.

Still scratching my head that Hall doesn't start LB and Krafth RB. 1 minute ago, Mazzy said: I agree with the first part. Very sceptical about the second.

But that team is still capable of getting something today - just need to keep howlers at the back to a minimum Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
