How must Sandro feel right now?

Jesus wept. We have emerged from the metamorphosis of unproven striker to none at all.

Sigurdsson playing as a false footballer.

 

[miff]

Hahahahaha Unsworth is worse than Martinez and Koeman combined.

So surprised at how tactically inept he seems.

No new ideas at all.

Don’t be surprised......

 

[Eggs]

facny lookman to run riot here mate... dunno why just do

..hope so. It’s like he expects to get beat but doesn’t want a hiding. Bit of width and pace but concerned anything played long will come straight back. I’m not a Lennon fan but fingers crossed we stumble on something that works.

 

[bluestevon]

I don't think it's going to work Ste.

and tbh mate, i dunno if this will or wont work, but i know rooney or dcl or sandro deffo dont work up front so why not gamble

 

[Death]

Unsworths finest hour is approaching. No one will this this coming.

 

[TheHumbleEgg]

Siggy as a False 9 is exactly what I've been waiting to see

...he's been a false footballer most of the season, does that not suffice?

 

[IllinoisBlue]

Gonna be interesting to watch Siggy drive a dangerous free kick into the box and get on the end of it

You know we have a complete and utter pile of dung squad with terrible players in every position don't you mate?

It also means Sigurdsson rather strangely IS the focal point mate, no hiding and has to turn up tonight, glad he's gambled because just to trot out the same stuff thats not working - what really is the point

tell you what - no chance on earth Lyon have trained to play against this system though lol

 

[Rugby Toffee]

Oh well ..

 

[dannyboy]

lol

So Unsworth definitely isn't getting the job then.

 

[Mosh Pit]

3 DM's. He's on the wind up.

We're leaking goals left right and centre. Having extra cover of our dodgy defence is a wise move

 

[GwladysBlue]

You know we have a complete and utter pile of dung squad with terrible players in every position don't you mate?

He could put out better than that

 

[maccavennie]

Who have we got on the bench?

Looks like a very bizarre selection riddled with more questions than answers. Let's see how it pans out though and hope he's stumbled upon something which might work.

COYB!!!
