I'll be very surprised if Byrne is at RW and Wisdom RB. 433 or 523? Roos Byrne Wisdom Clarke Buchanan Evans Bielik Shinnie Knight Kazim Jozwiak Roos Byrne Wisdom Evans Clarke Buchanan Bielik Shinnie Knight Kazim Jozwiak I think the most logical set up would be a 5311 but I have a sneaking suspicion it's 433 with 3 DMs and Knight out wide. Joy. What I really don't get is if that's your play why not name Bird, for all the dubious accusations that gets slung at him for being passive they actually readily apply to Evans.

enachops 455 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 On paper very defensive, struggle to see where the goals will come from. We had a Cocu like performance on Saturday and now tinkering with experimental line ups. Not a good sign. Fingers crossed for a positive result though - COYR! Link to post Share on other sites

RamsFan10 895 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 We could really do with keeping it 0-0 until the 80th minute and then falling over as much as possible around the area, for Rooney to sub himself on and place a freekick into the top corner whilst still wearing his full managerial tracksuit.

Jourdan 4,473 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 I don’t really get the ultra defensive line up. No-one expects us to win. It’s a free hit. Go for it. Instead it looks like we are trying to be cute and pinch a point and will probably lose 0-2 anyway. DanS1992 1 Link to post Share on other sites

It's not unusual to have a sluggish first game back when you haven't been able to train as a group due to "lock down"/isolation. I think we'll see a sharper start and that desire to get forward quicker back. We need to be confident and take th egame to B'mouth and I think we will. We need to see a braver and more committed team performance. Link to post Share on other sites

We've either moved Knight from where he is most affective, sacrificed a forward for an extra defensive player or both. I'm not sure how this line up fixes any issues and how it doesn't aggravate some of the weaker sides to our game we've been showing under Rooney. Jourdan 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Nuwtfly 8,962 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Horrible feeling we’re going to get absolutely battered tonight. That lineup hasn’t helped. God knows we need a result. Would take a draw after seeing that starting XI. Biley66 1 Link to post Share on other sites
