God we sound awful. This formation that NA seems to be persevering with could be the undoing of us this season.

 

We do not have the players for 4-3-3 and seem to be undoing all that was good about us last season by trying to fit the players we have to a system which clearly does not suit us.

 

Back to 4-4-2 please Nige.

 

TBH I think it's persevering with JRod on the left that's the problem in the prem. Stick Lallana out left and Guly central and I think it'd work better. Don't have a problem with the second string using the same formation, should help any of them slot in should they make the step up.

Sho, how'sh it hangin, Eric, me ol' online buddy wuddy? Spickly Hen is it? Shpifire?

 

Make the most of it - these moments will be few and far between, down the pub for Prem games if not working and if at work no access to here.

 

Old Specky it is. You on your Homebrew?

I dont get why we are persevering with this 4-3-3 nonsense. We should stick to what we are good at, there is no reason whatsoever why 4-4-2 can't work in the Prem. At the moment we are crowbaring players into positions they are uncomfortable in.

Are you there to come out with that definitive statement? Against Wigan, we looked better with the 4-3-3 than with the 4-4-2.......if we can get Ramirez and a CB we should be just fine.

Make that 2-0 - indirect freekick after a mistake from the Stevenage centreback. Chaplow played the ball square and Sharp walloped it in the net. Stevenage protesting it wasn't a back pass but decision is made and goal stands.

Is it 2-0 now .... bit of confusion with the Stevo taters. Sounds like we got a free kick we didn't deserve, then took the free kick from the wrong place and then Billy scored.

 

Atmosphere with Stevo taters turned really frosty now!!

 

Yay 3-0 shock horror probe Punchy volleys into the net .... must have been a miskick surely!!

Yep its just about getting that touch of quality in the key areas to help us out a bit.

 

During 4-3-3, we were comfortable, created chances, very much on par with a top Wigan side in good form. Their 1st goal was our CB's switching off, the 2nd goal was Fonte being slack. Nothing to do with the 4-3-3 being wrong. We were very much 2nd best when we went 4-4-2 however.

figeroa.....was immense

 

Cox's too! :o

 

And the first goal showed amazing unity between Pompey and Saints: Harding allowed the cross and Halford allowed the header ;)

Crikey, what's going on with Leicester? Hardly a second team they've put out.

 

I was saying earlier here at home that Pearson will be sacked by Xmas. Lost 2 out of opening 3 league games and now being, in all honesty, thrashed tonight by Burton. And as you said, it isnt even really a Leicester 2nd team!

 

City: Schmeichel, De Laet, Konchesky, Whitbread, Danns, St. Ledger, Waghorn, James, Gallagher, Schlupp, Knockaert.

Subs: Morgan, King, Logan, Beckford, Moore, Futacs, Nugent.
