Brighton (A) - Thu 25th April, 20:00 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

[Didsbury Dave]

Foden won’t be on the wing. This is our second formation, which we play without stones. The full backs push right on and the wide men tuck inside. Kova sits alongside Rodri.

It’s fault is usually that the full backs are the outlet ball, but it offers us midfield control.

 

[RayCTID]

Yep, not much goal threat on our bench otherwise ha

Although not prolific both Doku and Grealish can score or change the game in our favour. Got to watch out for Fati.

 

[BigJoe#1]

So after all that arguing, no Grealish or Doku! :-)

On the bench? If so impact subs.... excellent.

 

[ken tali]

pretty much zero pace in this team ,but should be enough against that Brighton side.

Think Pep’s done it to make the journos smile wryly and recognise they asked a daft question.

 

[bluethai]

good lineup, although I'd have preferred Grealish to start.

 

[Blu3m00n91]

What’s the point in Walker being high and wide. The guy does nothing in an attacking sense.

I think just to hold the width. Bernardo/Foden always want to play inside.

Grealish can score ?
Since when ? ha
Only joking Grealish disciples ffs

Yeah I get that. But I still hate when Walker is tasked to do that. He is so wasteful and at times very sloppy.

 

[Claytop]

90 minutes of Walker seeing ALOT of the ball…
