TheMightyVillans Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Sick of seeing bacuna start. Guzan, Richards, Clark, Lescott, hutton all playing together is a bit of a worry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 (edited) Well he's trying something different, I'll give him that. 9 defensive players (or 8+ whatever you call Westwood's "contribution") Going for the 0-0 win, Alex McLeish approves Edited March 1, 2016 by sne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's our whole team selection, we don't have a "best side", we pick a least worst. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMightyVillans Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 A lineup where if we concede we have 0 chance of winning. Not that we have much of a chance of winning if we actually score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted March 1, 2016 Moderator Share Posted March 1, 2016 Interesting team choice. Particularly at the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilchard Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Do my eyes deceive me, or are we actually playing two up front (when was the last time that happened?!) AND not playing this crappy 4-2-2-1 thing that the last three managers have insisted on?! Bunn had to be dropped, just a shame it had to be Guzan coming in. Westwood and Bacuna in midfield too with one of the chuckle brothers back in defence but oh well, at least it's something different. Would have been nice to have given some of the younger players a go rather than the idiots that have let us down throughout the season too but at least he's tried something different. We'll still lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilchard Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Glad Gil and Vertout dropped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul33 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 (edited) We only have a chance tonight if we keep a clean sheet as Remi said earlier in the week. Southampton switched to three central defenders and went with 4/5 clean sheets so it CAN work. Gil and Veretout were truly awful on Saturday and Remi is right to say "if that's the best you can do then I'll try others on Tuesday". He's trying different things - give the guy a break !!!!

lmarsha_926 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 I would not play the youngsters with how toxic the atmosphere is talking about destroying them Plus these are the players that should be playing in that toxic atmosphere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd have thought we'd have worked out by now that only playing 9 outfielders was putting ourselves at a disadvantage. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myko Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 I'd be fine with this formation if we had dynamic, attacking fullbacks (e.g. Amavi and his right footed twin). But Hutton and Cissokho simply aren't that. Don't be fooled into thinking this is 3 at the back, that back 5 will be within an arms length of each other all game. A Mcleish formation of the highest order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahaha if it's any excuse it's been a very tiring day. And playing with Guzan and Gabby is like playing with two men down too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
