[Eric Djemba-Djemba]

There's real potential for an unreal amount of fume tonight because of that team selection. Thank you Roberto.

Would anyone like to message me their outrage at being able to watch this on an iPad?

I'm up to the task mate. I have a longstanding pedigree of hate in my bloodline.

Let's hope we win sod the pessimist on here!

WAIT WUT????? THAT'S OUR FORMATION

 

[Neiziro]

Feeling less and less confident the closer it gets to kick-off.

Interesting to see how we line up today, last time we tried a weird formation was when we smashed chelsea at home so lets see if the people fuming look equally stupid as they did that day!

 

[bluewally]

IIRC that's the role he played Heitinga/Stones in his first pre-season with us, in the games against Juve and someone else (can't remember who) and we played surprisingly well.

He then tried the same in the LC vs Fulham and we lost I think

I don't mind looking a right knob if it works and we win, like. It's just I'm a bit sceptical of this happening...

 

[Jags..class]

Maybe Barry is tired plus the formation was pissing the home fans home so time to play attacking football at home.

 

[Efcjake]

Just woke up, am I seeing things or are we going 3 at the back

EDIT: Hold on, Stones is playing in midfield...?

 

[Titus Bramble]

Because none of the players are used to the system.
For 15 minures against villa 3-0 up it didn't matter but from the off against a strong west ham its gonna be ugly

Fair enough, let's see what happens

 

[DualityNSNO]

Yeah, true... We'll see.

 

[blue to the bone]

We will win this. Always beat them and continue that today. Save the moaning til it's at least warranted.
2-0. Rom and Coleman

 

[Neiziro]

NBC saying that Stones is in Barry's role.
