We've had a tough start, but we've not started our easier games at all well, and if we have a rest, regroup and rethink and still can't beat West Brom then it looks like curtains. On that form we'll be cemented to the relegation zone by Christmas. Win it, and there's a glimmer of hope we've learnt from our mistakes and have kept our team spirit alive. Palace havent scored a goal yet and they arent even cermented in the relegation zone!
AjcW Posted 12 October 2017 Posted 12 October 2017 N'didi is fit!! Was just cramp. Vardy also fit to start. Huth also still out, some injury that has proved to be! Got to ask yourself if its the beginning of the end for a player when they get past 30 and cant shake off an injury, especially someone as strong as Huth!

I'm all for picking an attacking team but if West Brom ended up picking us off on the counter 3 times and winning the game Shakey would be in serious bother. I would consider offering it to Chris Coleman if Shakey gets the boot. Wagner and Silva won't come now. Hoping for a morale boosting victory here though akin to the win at home to Liverpool last season under Shakey. Are you on the wind-up? The similarities between Coleman and Shakespeare are huge. The football Wales have served up since the group stages at the Euro's has been awful.

Clearly a concern. Vardy and ndidi fit means we will be standard 4-4-1-1 against a team which won't.

Injury, operation, comback and then a setback in their very first game.
StriderHiryu Posted 12 October 2017 Posted 12 October 2017 I think this will be our line-up: Kasper Simpson Maguire Morgan Fuchs Mahrez Ndidi Iborra Gray Ihenacho Vardy Think it ends 1-1 in a game devoid of quality. Goals from set pieces and crosses when they come.
CosbehFox Posted 12 October 2017 Posted 12 October 2017 Be nice if the majority of the crowd actively cheered us on rather than moan. Whilst the game's underway, get behind em regardless of your opinions.

Performances haven't been good or exciting and that's the problem. And that's not just us, it's every club.
Grebfromgrebland Posted 12 October 2017 Posted 12 October 2017 Everyone is going on about the attack but our defence needs attention. We should match them up. Schmeichel Simpson Morgan Maguire Fuchs Dragovic Huth Amartey Albrighton Iborra Chilwell/Benaluane This is the way forward I'm surprised no-one has mentioned this line up already.

Of couse i reserve the right to come on to foxes talk and agree they had quite a good game. Similarly i cheer craig and the boys on during the match.... but later fortified with jd i come on here and moan like .....a moaner

Chester Dontlie Posted 12 October 2017 Posted 12 October 2017 Let's just pray Shakes doesn't throw Andy King at them. They have a couple of proper midfielders in Barry and Krychowiak, fortunately none of them super creative although the latter has a thing for through balls. I wish they started Livermare, it could make things a bit easier for us. Their defense and strikers out of form, we should be at them from the get go, torment them with our wingers and let them make mistakes. Vards, Shinji, Gray and Mahrez should start. Much depends on how rusty Vince still is and if Ndidi can get back in form. We need to win this but will be lucky to get a draw. Sorry my glass is half empty...

They've also got that Oliver Burke guy who's meant to be quite good, in fact all of their midfielders would get into our team right now.

As soon as we string 2 or 3 passes together the crowd does start getting excited but it's difficult to cheer a lot of what we've seen recently. But I do agree we could be a better crowd overall.

Ric Flair Posted 12 October 2017 Posted 12 October 2017 Time Iheanacho was asked to step up and be the superstar he's supposed to be. Got to be 3-4-1-2 for me.

The football Wales have served up since the group stages at the Euro's has been awful. Nope Coleman has got the best out of a crap squad of players on paper, to progress to the Semi-Finals further than England have got in a long time, with much stronger squads on paper. He's open to returning to club football and ideally the Premier League and I believe he can get more out of our squad than Shakespeare will. We all know on this forum Shakespeare will be gone fairly soon, like many assistant managers promoted to numero uno of the past (Sammy Lee, John Carver, Terry Connor, Ryan Giggs). Have any promoted assistants actually done well in the Premier League? I can't think of any in the last 20 years at least. Who else can we get? We've missed the boat on progressive up and coming managers that may have transformed our club, there won't be a great list on the betting market when Shakespeare leaves either by Christmas or early 2018.

West Brom (71.8%) 20. Leicester (71%) Both us & WBA wil put the nation to sleep on Monday night football. We are just as turd as each other. For comparison, Stoke have 45.2% possession and 77% pass success rate. Burnley got 44% possession and 72.5 pass success rate. Brighton got 46.4 possession and 78.4 pass success rate. Yes, ****ing Brighton are better passers than us and keep the ball better than us. We have better individual players than Burnley and Brighton, as shown how easily we beat BHA, but yet we are made to look like a bunch of cloggers against any half decent passing side. Over £100m spent in the last 3 windows and we got nothing to show for it. It really does make you wonder what the hell they were thinking doesn't it. We have four games on TV in the next couple of months and I cannot make a case for a single one of them being televised.

They wanted to put on an MNF to compete with BT in the week and had to use two teams not in europe to do it
