3-4-3 Chelsea style:

------------------ Johnstone ----------------

--------- Chester -- Jedi -- Baker ---------

Hutton -- Lansbury --  Bacuna -- Amavi

------ Adomah -- Hogan -- Grealish------

 

Need to have Jedinak playing that deep and owning that space just at the top of our own box, so that all 4 mids can press forward and swarm the buggers!

Got the option to revert to 4-1-4-1 with the same players, pretty quickly if things aren't working.

What an opportunity this is - beat these, wipe the crooked smile off Harry's face, put them in real danger and let the team spend the whole of next week in KFC in preparation for the Blackburn game. It could be very very sweet. 

They're crap - they were dour and crap and lucky under Rowett, and then they were expansive and crap under Zola - they'll be crap under Harry the crook too. We've got to take to em.

They might be crap, but we fall apart easily and Harry will have them fired up.

How fired up can they be? They have won 2 games in 20 odd, they lie just 2 places and 3 points above the relegation zone and are on their third manager in just a few months! Beat them on Sunday and hope Blackburn and Foreat can scrape a few points and SHA will go down on goal difference as I can't see them getting anything out of their last 2 games.

Well Bruce had inherited a team in a mess and he turned it around in his first 7 games. It's not as simple as that. It's gonna be a tough game. If we play as shit as we have been we could easily lose this.

It's a full house candleface will instruct them to score early to quiet the crowd and get the fans frustrated so we make mistakes.

If Bruce adopts 3 5 2 we are gonna lose simple as that.

I'd go 4 5 1 

With a midfield of

Adomah hourihane lansbury grealish 

                      Jedinak

And ensure hourihane gets up top attacking to support hogan

Bruce didn't inherit a team 3 points and 3 games from relegation. Harry Redknob doesn't have the luxury of time on his hands.

Either people believe that Bruce is the man capable of leading us to promotion next season in which case winning the SHA game should not be in doubt or, if it is in doubt and people haven't got faith in him to win it, then maybe he isn't the right man to lead us to promotion.

If bruce loses at home to blose, the fans will not be happy. he has to deliver in this game no excuses

Bruce pick the right team and just pin a photo of Ugo on the dressing room wall in front of the players and walk out without saying anything. Nothing more needs to be said or done.

If winning the game for Ugo is not inspiring enough I don't know what is

@BOF what is our record against Redknapp's teams?

There's no easy way of doing that AFAIK.  It would require a lot of donkey work.

This.

Small heath are a team of nobodies, but I want us to crush them because the vermin from the Sty are the most cretinous bunch of ape-like throwbacks in football fandom.

Even if you see one not wearing a drool and Pot Noodle covered royal blue shitshirt, you know them anyway...foreheads like Craig Gardner, fag in gob, trackie bottoms stained with piss, "SOTV" tattoo on the neck. Very easy to spot.

I'll be in that there London, checking my phone periodically for good news.
