Boroboy1980 6 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Erm.... 5-4-1 Stuani stuck on the right again. I'd like the idea it was a 5-3-2 defending moving to a 3-5-2 in attack, but I just don't see it happening Anyway, wear them down for 65 minutes then inject pace with Traore and Fischer Link to post Share on other sites
Betamaxman 14 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Rhodes not on the bench.... I'm a late adopter to the thinking that Rhodes may be on the way out! Hmmm. Link to post Share on other sites
wilsoncgp 9,230 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Definitely 5-3-2. Isn't this the same system Watford play? Are we just matching them up man for man? Pretty sure this is what they played at the Riverside. Link to post Share on other sites
wilsoncgp 9,230 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Rhodes not on the bench.... I'm a late adopter to the thinking that Rhodes may be on the way out! Hmmm. Gestede is ahead of him in the pecking order. I don't think it suggests any deal is close, really. We already have 3/4 strikers in the squad if you include Fischer and I doubt we'd pick 2 out and out strikers on the bench for a game we have 2 strikers on the field for.

BillyWoofs_shinpad 1,884 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 I'm not happy with this we have 9 defenders on the pitch lol True but we've got a very attacking bench, so that will help ;) Link to post Share on other sites
BlackTreacle 5 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Definitely 5-3-2. Isn't this the same system Watford play? Are we just matching them up man for man? Pretty sure this is what they played at the Riverside. Watford seem to playing 4 CB, 4 CM a LB and Troy Deeney Link to post Share on other sites
pikerman 1,089 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Wow, that is some defensive line up, which will be ok providing we do not concede a goal, but if we do I cannot see any way back. Link to post Share on other sites

JMC91 280 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Watford have only scored twice in their last 5, so we've gone with 5 defenders and 3 CDMs. Link to post Share on other sites
smogsterking the Inspirati 2,453 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Valdes Fabio Chambers Espinosa Gibson Friend De Roon Clayton Forshaw Stuani/Gestede Negredo Hopefully. (If it's 532) Spot on :D Leadboots lets you down for the star prize :) Link to post Share on other sites
Dan1234 1,048 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Can't see us creating anything from open play with that lineup. Hopefully we get a good set piece and can just sit on a 1-0. Link to post Share on other sites

sackrobson2 371 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Another disappointing starting line up. This is one of the most negative teams I've seen us start with. There really is no creativity there at all. I guess we are relying on a set piece to score. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Changing Times Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 I don't think Stuani up top, if he is up top, is such a bad thing really? Like I said earlier though it would be strange that in all those games we were needing a goal we wouldn't try something like that for even 20 mins but now we're starting with it.
