I remember it being a much more widespread opinion when he was getting minutes in the championship. I don’t rate him either tbh. But Kodjia at 30% still offers more threat than our current incumbent. Kodjia must be gone in January. I just can’t understand this. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 I like the 3 CBs, but I was hoping we'd sack Trezegeut off, stick Jack in the middle, and have Kodjia up with Wesley. Don't see us creating a **** thing with this lineup. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTF Change the formation - Yes, fine. Playing Taylor as a wing back and picking Wesley every week? Inexcusable. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KHV Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 I can safely say we are having 0 shots on target We are playing with 9 men essentially Expect aimless passing from Nakamba, Luiz will just watch everyone stroll past him as usual Wesley up top, literally no words for that decision. No goals in 12 and he gets another start. I would have left him at home This is going to be tragic 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AV82 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 (edited) 3-4-3 it is. People have been calling for 3 at the back and I’m excited to see if we adapt. The Targett injury was poor timing, would love to see him at WB. Edited January 1, 2020 by AV82 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like Smith will try to park the bus like he did against Sheff Utd. And we all know how that ended. Exactly this for me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted January 1, 2020 Moderator Share Posted January 1, 2020 Who would people have preferred at the left wing back position? I think the only real alternative would be Guilbert on his wrong side with Elmo playing on the right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTF Yes. When managers make drastic changes as soon as they enter the relegation zone it comes across as panicking to me. Lambert used to do it too. Should have stuck with a more similar formation to 4-3-3 and just made subtle changes. Our whole squad is drilled to play 4-3-3, they won't have a clue what they're doing in this game and we're going to get battered. If I'm wrong I'll happily eat humble pie, and £10 to VT if we don't lose by at least 3 goals. Edited January 1, 2020 by PieFacE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s what I was thinking. I thought people wanted him to try and change things, and now he has and it’s ‘panic mode’? Ah well, I don’t expect us to win, but a good performance at least would be slightly heartening. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did like the idea of giving Hause a go out left, but that's when I expected is to have a back 4. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Taylor as a wing back, jesus **** wept, can't wait to see his 1 out of 10 performance. Trezeguet should be no where near the first team either and what kind of dirt has Wesley got on Smith. I'm expecting us to lose 2-1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah complete idiocy. We have all been saying we should try something new, we are, just a pity we don't have the players to suit it in some positions currently (Taylor). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know what (and I'm maybe clutching at straws here), Taylor may be better in this formation. The problem with Taylor is that he seems scared to attack incase he loses the ball, this formation kind of gives him a little less defensive responsibility, or at least more defensive help. That may well give him more confidence to attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
