Bournemouth (a) pre-match thread

[ballinio]

Really don't understand the "it'd be stronger with Kun instead of Jesus" comments. Have people actually been watching Sergio in our first two matches? Apart from his one goal he has been one of the worst players on the pitch. He'll come good, of course, as he is world class, but he has looked well off it and was pretty bad against Everton.

He wasn't as bad as Jesus & he gets to start

Why ant the official OS get the lineup something like correct.

They've obviously got the team sheet right and I don't expect them to be exact with where each player will play but they've got Silva at LB and Mendy in Cm.. Sterling up front and our Kev on the LW.

It's a little thing but it does my head in.

Look at it again on the twitter



It's not the job of the OS to set the likely formation.

This is the best starting line up so far this season, yes!!

On paper

 

[Dax777]

Our strongest available 11 that.

Very happy.

this. Assuming Mendy is up for it.

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

And Walker....

And Sanchez!

 

[AntonDonJuan]

Delighted with the team. I'd swap Sterling for Sane and Walker for Danilo and Gundogan for Ferna and that's our strongest starting eleven

 

[Utter bobbins]

Glad so many of our fans are up to date with what goes on training on a daily basis and are fully up to speed with players fitness levels

 

[mosssideblue]

We had better be good with this formation, Pep has left a lot of talent out!

No matter who played he was always going to leave talent out - nice position to be in

 

[SWP's back]

And Sanchez!

Imagine the reaction when another favourite from 11/12 is on the bench with him starting.

 

[Decepticon]

Good old 4-3-3, good lineup!

 

[SebastianBlue]

He wasn't as bad as Jesus & he gets to start

Matter of perception as I thought Jesus was the better of the two overall these first two games.

 

[greasedupdeafguy]

Hopefully this isn't 4-4-2

doubt it as who plays alongside fern

my guess would be 4-1-4-1

 

[Tricky_Trev]

And Sanchez!

I'd have Yaya/Gundogan over Fernandinho too, but that's just me :)

 

[Eccles Blue]

As long as Vincent Kompany is on there leading the team we will be all right. :-)

 

[Moveonlife]

Pep finally listening me.. Aguero dropped and rightly so!!

 

[Rammy Blue]

And Sanchez!

Naughty........but nice.

 

[mosssideblue]

Pep finally listening me.. Aguero dropped and rightly so!!

mmmh - I dont think so somehow

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

He's created far more? Or had far more chances?

...superb pass with outside of his foot to set up Silva's chance, lovely cushioned flick touch inside for Sterling to balloon it 10 yards over the bar from 3 yards 2nd half....crossing for Jesus to head it straight at the Brighton keeper 1st half...and of course the goal....clearly, that is more than Jesus has contributed so far

 

[york away to this!]

Just watched the 11-12 season review to get me in the mood. Who's chopping onions again?...
