adam Posted 28 December 2019 Share Posted 28 December 2019 That's a shocker. Game chucked before we start. Why do we need all these changes? That gap to 4th can soon disappear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goober Posted 28 December 2019 Share Posted 28 December 2019 If Brendan believes it's the best thing for the squad I'm fully behind him. Not holding out much hope for a result mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BR has said for weeks this is what he would do for this fixture. yeah i thought i was going mad in the pre match thread cos i was sure i'd read at the start of the month that he already planned to drop vardy amongst others. still funny though. mendy and hamza as a midfield two. hold me.

Surely that should have played against Liverpool so we could have a full strength side today. That's purely in hindsight though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddyS Posted 28 December 2019 Share Posted 28 December 2019 Slightly concerned by Justin in defence behind that midfield. I actually thought he looked a bit dodge when he came on in other games so I hope this isn't too much for him today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARM1968 Posted 28 December 2019 Share Posted 28 December 2019 Right, well, er, either Brendan has lost the plot in a huge way or else, well, or else .............. I’m not sure. That team will likely be dismantled by an out of sorts, free falling West Ham. Cannot see anything but a defeat with this lineup. Pretty shocking to be honest and makes zero sense. If you knew you were going to do this then surely send em out against Liverpool, who we’d never catch anyway, and send the first 11 out against Weshstam. Utterly bizarre. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corky Posted 28 December 2019 Share Posted 28 December 2019 The midfield is the biggest concern. I think the defence could be alright, the attack is capable if they knit together but that midfield has barely played in two months, I'm really surprised all three from Thursday have been dropped. He's taking a risk with this game but it also piles the pressure on for Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighPeakFox Posted 28 December 2019 Share Posted 28 December 2019 I'm more surprised by the level of ignorance being shown on here as to the whys and wherefores. Actually, no I'm not. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farrington fox Posted 28 December 2019 Share Posted 28 December 2019 Christ I didn’t see that many changes coming. Be lucky to get anything. Given this game is more winnable than Newcastle. I’m surprised at this lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nnfox Posted 28 December 2019 Share Posted 28 December 2019 Something fishy going on here. 9 changes by us, 7 by West Ham. That is not normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
when_you're_smiling Posted 28 December 2019 Share Posted 28 December 2019 Weirdly takes some of the pressure off today’s game.....but ramps up the pressure massively to get three points at St James’s. What odds sneaking a win today and losing at full strength on NY day? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Quick Brown Fox Posted 28 December 2019 Share Posted 28 December 2019 Shocked by that team. On the other hand this could be the game that lets the rest of the league (and us) know that we do have decent squad depth. Also a kick up the arse of the regulars to ensure they don't think they are guaranteed to be starting even if playing poorly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
