I don’t mind that if it’s a 541/343. We needed something different that allowed more solidity if the wing backs go bombing forward. Elyo is better more central as well.

Think we’ll be ok for a draw

Going to go with.... that’s a weird lineup.(and hope to have to eat humble pie after the game) I wanted to see tella play but not as a LB. pretty damning indictment of small signing. Not a fan of playing 5 at the back against Liverpool, thought Ralph admitted it was wrong last time we tried it against them.

On reflection I think it's probably KWP at LWB and Tella at RWB, think we've done that before at some point this season?

That makes sense actually. Can't think who it was against, but Tella played as a kind of auxillary RWB with the right CB shifting over to RB a lot. It worked as well.

If we can keep it to three goals conceded that would be amazing, think it's going to be a lot worse though!

Standard 442/4222 then, Salisu at Lb, luckily they've gone weaker than normal or else it would've been embarrassing,  Ralph really is a clueless prick

Don’t forget he’s had 10 days to think about this, the longer he has to think the mire bizarre it becomes!

wasn't that admittance of selection error more to do with playing three up front, than the five at the back? 

Small ain't up to it yet. Still incredibly young, but I got terrible Ramsey vibes when I saw him in that Cov game. Neither CB nor fullback.

Is Perraud injured?  EDIT: yes. Sounds nasty. Good time to happen though. Can get it right for next season. Just shows how thin we really are at full back.

What would you have done differently considering the injuries?

It’s the inconsistency though isn’t it. Take Stephens…..please take him…..but he hasn’t even regularly featured on the bench since that City cup game, then tonight, hey presto, he’s back in yet Valery, who the manager has preferred and is no worse than Stephens, stays on the bench. Why?

I thought Minamino was lightweight last season , shoots like he's wearing slippers, so probably a hat trick for him tonight

Maybe it was me thinking Ralph was sensible to admit playing 5at the back versus Liverpool was stupid.

Yeah thought small was poor in Cov game. If that’s his ability level it’s an indictment of our scouting.

Yeah leg fracture apparently

He's really set himself up to fail here, we should be putting in the type of performance we saw V City, United and Spurs away this season.

Yep. We have therefore filled the side with a few of our own Jimi Traore.
