picicata Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 I **** hate five at the back and suspect we will get smashed playing it. I very much hope I'm proved wrong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, NSWE, thankyou It's going to be a rough few months but I've got no doubt we will finish the season strong if we can keep players fit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doaflip Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 I'm pleased we've gone for a defensive set up. A hard fought point here would be lovely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure I’d class playing two up front against Chelsea away as a defensive set up. Interested to see how it pans out. Has potential to be a good set up for us but difficult to know given we haven’t seen it previously. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
