Looked a bit off the pace every time I've seen him play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obvious solution to our lack of cutting edge that Bruce bemoaned after Fulham without sacrificing the formation that has served us so well. Yes should be lansbury not onomah , and grabban on left , B.B. at dm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Where has it come out that grabban is a good winger? I thought he was a proper poacher type centre forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked at whoscored, he made all his sunderland appearances central. Not sure about previous clubs but i can see why we haven't put him out there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 To me this looks better than fulham. We are playing our best formation and players in their best or better positions. I don't see it as being very negative. Looks to me like sensible decisions and correcting the mistakes made against fulham.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 (edited) See how we set up. I'd go with Thor on the left and Onomah in Grealishs role. I didn't wanna see Grabban on the left. They would have tore Hutton apart. Edited February 20, 2018 by Vive_La_Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Transfer market have him down as striker or left wing , seems he’s played there at Norwich and Bournemouth but obviously is a centre forward in the main .

sne Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 From what I've seen Onomah has neither the feet nor the head to excel in the advanced midfield position. Sure he can do a job there to a point, but it's not the option I'd have gone with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thabucks Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 (edited) What the actual **** .... Why with our flare players injured does he let our only other Bona Fide flair player in OHare play the night before .... all I care about is getting out of this division but I really can't wait for the day this play it safe relic of a coach is but a distant memory of promotion glory which will nullify the painful memories of watching his team play ....

Junxs Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 We have one creative player on the pitch. All they have to do is double mark Snodgrass and they will have a clean sheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyh29 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 that’s an awful line up .... lets hope it’s got enough to beat Preston Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czechlad Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Onomah, Hourihane, Snodgrass, and Hogan should be enough attacking talent to open up Preston especially at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stegzy Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Don’t like that line up at all, has left me feeling quite flat. If he just could have put O’hare In there, the crowd would have been more excited or at least put him on the bench to liven things up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntrimBlack Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 For RHM and O'Hare not to be involved is mind-boggling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunnski Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Why has Elmo been dropped, he's been quality at right back and consistantly puts in good crosses. I don't like seeing our defense being altered for no reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
