O’Reilly should probably be played at left-back. He’s going to be needed there again during AFCON, so better that he gain more experience now.
Perhaps. A lot of suggestions about the lineup next weekend but so far none, to my eyes, offer a realistic solution. I am beginning to think we really are fucked. Still I am going for a win because anything less than a share of the points seems unbearable.

Will be the last fixture for some players, who may leave thereafter, if not before, but I somehow don’t think there will be time nor inclination for any emotional farewells.
 
---------------Haaland
Ait-Nouri Foden Cherki Bobb
-----------Rodri Reijnders
-------Gvardiol Dias Stones
---------------Trafford

I'd go back to the box midfield with Foden (or Cherki) coming in from the Left and Ait-Nouri effectively playing left wing like how Gvardiol used to.

O'Reilly (or even Gvardiol, with Ake or Khusa at CB), if Ait-Nouri isn't fit.
Alt Nouri out for 3 weeks
 
Watching Grealish today. He shows more defences qualities than any wingers we have and he has assisted 2 goals. One with a great cross the other by attracting players to him to free up his fullback for a strike on goal. With 8mins to go he hasn't lost the ball once.

So he assisted one goal? „ attracting players“

I genuinely hope we start like this.

Idc
Nunes - Stones - Khusanov - A.N/ Ake
Reijnders - González
Foden - Marmoush - Doku
Haaland.

Marmoush is wasted out wide and Cherki needs some time I guess and is better as an impact player currently. Nunes has to start. We started winning when playing 2 attacking fullbacks like every other club does but somehow reverted to our inverted bullshit where our wingers are expected to outdribble 3-4 players 90% of the game while being in absolute isolation.

edit: never mind I now understand what you meant with attracting players

And Jack was the man of the match.

Donnaruma In if he is here
Gvardiol over Dias if healthy
Rodri over Nico if he is healthy
Only doubt Cherki or Foden
The main goal is to keep our goal clean

Point to prove and all that.
 
Fuck it if we can’t defend at least finish our fucking chances, 3-2 or 4-3 I don’t care
I’m sick of seeing players look to the sky having missed sitters.
 
Trafford

Nunes Stones Gvardiol Ake

Gonzalez

Bernardo Foden

Bobb Haaland Marmoush
Trafford should be no where near the starting 11, weak hand for the first goal maybe slightly unsighted the second goal complete brain fart from him, play it wide to the full back not to a player straight i front of goal, who has an opposition player right up his arse

These back fours I keep seeing listed don’t fill me with confidence. We need to play a CB at right back until we sign one.
