I will reserve my judgment until after we've lost.

 

[roydo]

Blimey. How is that going to work out?

Who needs width

 

[bilyaletdinov_]

solid midfield, wouldn't be surprised to see Mirallas and/or Deulofeu come on and make the difference COYB!

 

[maccavennie]

No width at all which is my only concern and the same static 2 in the middle. Need big games from Barry and McCarthy to protect the back 4 and need even bigger games from Ross and Tom to provide some form of creativity.

Just looks unbalanced to me tbh but fingers crossed it gets us the 3 points. Can't even listen to this as I've got back to back to back to back appointments now!!

 

[Eric Djemba-Djemba]

Liking the width.

 

[Librarian]

well at least the plane will have wings...

 

[Matthew mcdonnell]

Gotta sit back and stay in this for as long as possible and maybe bring Del Boy on to stretch it at the end

 

[Khalekan]

I love it when we play without any width at all

I cannot believe that line up.

Two strikers and no specialist wide players to feed them.

 

[Josep]

Except for Ross, who else can dribble?

 

[MartSlinger]

Has to be played as a diamond.

 

[Dithering Dougie]

Think we're in for plan B today.

 

[BluePeadar]

I am quietly confident we will stink the place out today.
3-0 Southampton

Hope Im wrong like

Laughable isn't it? That Lukaku signing was based on recouping Felliani, Jelavic and Anichebe money.
