Infinitely Content Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 My optimism was very much hinged on Gordon playing up top and Joelinton being in the midfield. Not really looking forward to watching Woltemade regardless of where he plays, everything that was good about us at the weekend, epitomised by Joelinton, is everything he's not.

Moose Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Oddly enough, Haaland isn't usually the problem for us, it's usually some random players having the game of his career against us. Expect Nunes or Rijnders to get a brace Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guybrush Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Marmoush is the worry, but I'm glad we're looking to give Barca a real go by the looks of things. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The likes of Gordon can't just go and go and go and go and go and us expect them not to break, something has got to give somewhere. Trippier can just go and go and go though, apparently... 😄 Edited March 7 by Joe1984 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 28 minutes ago, Mike said: Hmmm.... What's Eddie cooking here. Outside of Osula instead of Gordon I feel like it's as good as it can get from what's available and Gordon is going to need to be rotated at some point. Willock definitely deserves it from his performances and I'm very non-plussed on the whole Burn or Botman scenario. Either is good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC Magpie Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 For whatever it's worth ESPN here in the States has us in a 4-2-3-1 formation thusly. I like the experiment: Osula Elanga Woltemade Barnes Willock Tonali Hall Thiaw Botman Trippier Ramsdale Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
