SNSUN Posted 25 October, 2019 Share Posted 25 October, 2019 Man City twice in a row after a 9 nil thrashing! FFS. Simply we need to mix it up in one of the games, and as the first is the Cup game, that might as well be the one. Firstly, no more 3 centre backs. Yes we’re crap with 2 but we’re also crap with 3 so we might as well have the extra attacker on the pitch, even against the likes of City. Secondly, no more 3 central midfielders. They aren’t good enough. Thirdly, no Gunn. He’s not ready yet and McCarthy is better. So... injuries pending... McCarthy Valery (unless Cedric is fit) Danso Yoshida Vokins Romeu Hojbjerg (who else? Slattery? ) Armstrong Redmond Adams Ings Or get Djenepo back on crutches or whatever, it seems we need him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pamplemousse Posted 26 October, 2019 Share Posted 26 October, 2019 They'll name a younger team I guess, it's the league game I'm more worried about. There have to be mass changes for both games. Start with McCarthy in goal, it's obvious that he is a far better goalkeeper than Gunn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right, they did, and a fair point, but the oppo certainly wouldn't have come out of it unscathed back then, they may not have been worldbeaters but they were committed and it showed. I've witnessed those and more since but if we're talking about character, I know who I'd want alongside me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angelman Posted 26 October, 2019 Share Posted 26 October, 2019 We're a wounded tiger and we are going to rip them apart. Aye, something like that. Somewhat different....was in a restaurant last night pre-game, and the young lad on the next table thought we were going to be 2-2 and gave me a very disapproving look when I said we'd likely loose 4-0. While I know you weren't being serious, the optimism of youth was sad to see, given that it was going to be badly trampled on. Quite how badly for a lad at his 6th or 7th game was something even I couldn't have seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because i’d like Us to play a left back and Bertrand is suspended. We need to see what vokins can offer, wed is a free hit.

Because Bertrand is suspended and we’re **** out of left backs otherwise. Sticking Danso at left back, de Bruyne or whoever will have a field day. At least a promising young left back, trained in that position, may have some idea of how to perform there. And who knows, he might do well. Cedric aside, there’s nobody else I would want to see in that position. If Cedric is fit, fine, give it to him, but if not, it hasn’t to be Vokins. But of course, we all know it will be Danso...

ericofarabia Posted 26 October, 2019 Share Posted 26 October, 2019 I'm going to both matches, living oop north now. Prior to last night I was optimistic of keeping the aggregate score from the 2 games down to single figures at a push' .... now I'm worried both could go into double figures!! Just watched MOTD and they highlighted just how impressive City's approach play down their left is .... gulp! Villa put up a good fight but City still had 25 attempts on goal. I think plenty of pre match beer to cushion the pain is my only hope, and maybe an abacus to keep tally of the scores!! A Long and Boufal inspired victory in the Cup and a respectable 0-3 loss in the league as it is a free hit would suit me .... at least I've only got a short distance to get home!!

Reinhard Posted 27 October, 2019 Share Posted 27 October, 2019 I do not pay Euro 20,- each month to SKY to see such a garbage like last Friday. I started to pay for SKY as I wanted to watch Southampton because I was a fan of RH's style to play. Fast, fights, never giving up, running 95 minutes. A kind of spectacle almost each match. These virtues are gone. It seems to me that there is over-sophistication and the basics are gone. RH should enforce again these basics attitudes. You need not to have an outstanding team to take a draw in Manchester when the team you have fights like lions. Not always nice to see but entertaining and effective. Even the team of last Friday can be successful if they decide or are compelled to decide to run and fight like they proved already in last season.
