Almost back to best current team, surprised reijnders starts

I don’t know what Pep is playing at, it looks like a normal team.

Please not Bernardo on the wing

Problem is it's either him or foden on the wing....neither are anywhere near their best out wide....but Reijnders is defensively negligent when played deeper so I'd rather with that 11 berne plays deeper and foden wide...to accommodate reijnders centrally....

Again why did we buy reijnders if he can't do hard the job of a number 8 ( ie defend)? He is not as good in the 10 as foden or cherki and when played in tge 8 he leaves the cdm ( in this case nico) exposed

Thought Cherki would be playing with being on the bench midweek. A bit disappointed he isn't starting as he is quite an exciting player to watch and always looking to create. Reijnders is neat and tidy but never really seems to affect the game enough. Typically I transferred Reijnders out of my FF team this week and brought Cherki in!

Anyway, should be good enough for the 3 points. Let's hope it comes to pass.

 

[St.Pauli support]

Reindeer desperately needs a performance today.
He has under-played himself into squad pressure. I didn't expect him to be blitzing games but he, at least, needs to have a presence on the pitch.
So far he must be as disappointed with his contributions as we are.
So, come on, lad! Get the game by the scruff and show your talents!

Yep, without Rodri we are so weak in the mid. Neither Foden, Cherki, Lewis, Bernardo can close that gap.

Hope Tijji leaves his heart in the mid today, 60 mins are enough, then Cherki on. But full power please, Dutchman.

 

[Semper aggressus]

I wish Rodri would hurry up and get bloody fit!

Don't hold your breath on that. If we get Rodri back he won't even be close to his best till next season

bro reijnders is class, guy has three or four bad games and people lose their minds. his best role is a number 8, he can defend - the times he was caught out the whole team played poorly. he'll have a good game today, watch

His next team is probably hoping the same thing ;-)

 

[waspish]

Just got to get that first goal early! Leeds not playing full strength side here! No matter when any team stick 11 in the box they work hard it is always hard!

Yes, I think you have said that

 

[oldius]

Strong team. Good luck, boys.

 

[Gabriel]

Bobb left out of the squad again - sign of things to come

One player is currently going to lose out from Bobb, Lewis, Khusanov, and Ake. This week it’s Bobb’s turn.

 

[Gabriel]

Be good if Haaland took his first chance and settled the side.

 

[come-on-barney]

Be good if Haaland took his first chance and settled the side.

He’s no Barney Daniels for sure.

 

[DavidWhitesUnderpants]

Afternoon all. Obviously nothing less than giving them a good old hammering today, surely ?? Minimum 4-0.

COYB.

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

Come on City!

We said that last season :-(

Think it'll be bobbs turn for a while sadly dont think he's good.enough

 

[wattle]

Hopefully Phil out wide playing inverted allowing Nunez to overlap

 

[SWP's back]

Savinho would be there as well if it wasn’t for that new deal.

Savinho should 100% be starting.












For spurs. Someone needs sacking over that one. Pusillanimous ****.
