Popular Post Finnegan Posted 30 November 2020 Popular Post Posted 30 November 2020 We absolutely, categorically, under no circumstances should be playing five at the back against these. We need to be maximising our attacking and creative players. Madders and YT to start with Mendy, Under and Barnes to start up with Vardy. No ****ing around, get back to the formation that actually gets us goals. 19

Lizzy Posted 30 November 2020 Posted 30 November 2020 Watched a few games by Fulham and they deserved more than they got in those games. Mitrović is decent. But i'll go for a 2-1 victory.
honeybradger Posted 30 November 2020 Posted 30 November 2020 Was watching the sky sports youtube channel and an interesting fact popped up that the only teams to have created fewer chances per game from open play than Arsenal are Burnley and Leicester, we're also second lowest in shots (we have played only 9 games tbf) to newcastle. The results have been good but this 3ATB has been dreadful and we've really been lucky with our results so far, if we start with 3 centrebacks we will struggle, even against fulham.

I agree but in the continued absence of Timmy and Ric, I fear that Brendan will be worried about playing a back 4 with either Fuchs or Thomas at LB or alternatively Albrighton at RB (and JJ at left back). So I think he'll probably over-compensate by playing a 3rd CB but really hope I'm wrong. 1
Countryfox Posted 30 November 2020 Posted 30 November 2020 Brendan confirmed that Wilf, Ricardo .. and Cags ! ... should all be in line to get some game time against Zorya ... 2

Fulham could well be a banana skin for us (as Lizzy says above they've deserved more than they have got in some games) unless we really go for it. Get in !!!

Any win would be a great result. This will not be easy. A well reasoned comment and a sensible approach, for you personally. For me, I'm going for 6-0 top of the table and going to drink my body weight in peroni and fall asleep on the sofa afterwards no doubt. 1
whoareyaaa Posted 30 November 2020 Posted 30 November 2020 (edited) hate 6.00 o clock kick offs will be a tough game if we turn up like we did at Liverpool then it will be a long game. be interesting to see the line up, our quality should see us through if we turn up Edited 30 November 2020 by whoareyaaa

But i'll go for a 2-1 victory. They have been much improved in recent games and have been unfortunate not to get anything out of a few. I don't see this being as straightforward as some suggest. Unfortunately, as happened to us in 14/15, when you're down the bottom of the table you regularly don't get any luck. Whilst I hope that changes for Fulham in the coming weeks I don't want it starting tonight 1

If Thomas can't be trusted to play left back in a four against one of the worst teams in the league, with a strong three man midfield in front of him and two of our first choice CBs inside, plus Barnes for help, he shouldn't be anywhere near the first team squad. 1

The 3atb is dreadful, our players have been individually good at moments to carry us through games but our ability to create chances is one of the worst in the league at the moment.
filbertway Posted 30 November 2020 Posted 30 November 2020 Schmeichel Justin Fofana Evans Thomas Mendy Tielemans Under Maddison Barnes Vardy Surely!! Will be sick if we play a back 5 against these 1

Leicester_Loyal Posted 30 November 2020 Posted 30 November 2020 People talking about putting 6 past them, embarrassing. Any win is the main thing, they're an ok team who have looked better lately, which is just the type of team that usually beats us. It was only a week ago people were talking about beating a half injured Liverpool team 3 or 4 nil, look how that turned out. 2
