Turned my stream off. Absolutely dog shit. Playing 3 at the back doesn't suit us, and didn't suit us before, with Bednarek playing. Giving a championship full back his debut, while leaving the Mom from Sunday on the bench, and moving your best rb to Lb?? That is on a par with branfoot moving Le Tiss to left wing to accommodate Perry Groves. The man is a born again, Welsh mining fuckwitt.

I don’t want to slag off a player on his debut, but Bree looks awful .

He should fit in nicely with the others then

Perraud must be fucking sick of putting in good performances only to be dropped for the next few weeks.

In fairness, haven't we changed to a 4 at the back with salisu LB? And he'll be starting vs brentford now.

So is Edozie going to play LWB?

Surely Perraud would have been the obvious replacement?

left wing, we switched to 4 at the back soon after they went 2-0 up...hence why we look a bit better

Watching Chuck series 1 with the wife. Occasional text updates from here are best I feel.

Good choice. Think I will start the series again for the umpteenth time...

Hard to believe how much space they have whenever they receive the ball

We are just soooooo slow to react and totally unaware of where they are running.

The funniest thing about his selection and tactical switch to a back four is that we’ve ended up with our 4th and 5th best centre backs as our two centre backs. 
As well as not playing our best left back, playing our best right back at left back and then left wing, a centre back at left back, and our best holding midfielder on the bench.

Aside from that, it’s a tactical master class.

Have to say Alcarez has been as poor as Diallo.

Hard for him though (and likewise Orsic when he has played) when all of our build up play completely bypasses the midfield and purely relies on big hoofs up top.

None of our midfielders have defensive awareness. We need Lavia on.

Bit harsh to single that out, fuck all positional, creative or attacking awareness either!
