It's a pre match thread where we've just been given the lineups, what else do you want us to talk about? Agree 100%. This place is as bad as I can remember it. Shouldn't be too surprised that this culture of shutting down debate has reached here though as it's the in thing to do nowadays. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's that people are so ready to get riled up over the slightest thing. I'm sure most would agree that BR gets things wrong, but our league position suggests less so than most. But that's not my point. Our league position shouldn't mean that we can no longer question lineups, formations, play style etc. I'm just not a fan of the mockery that some people receive if they dare to challenge anything our manager does I concede I appear to be in the minority on this matter Edited 30 November 2020 by foxfanazer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The formation he’s picked allows us to play to our current strengths and downplay our weaknesses, with the players we have available at the moment, simple as that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Flair Posted 30 November 2020 Share Posted 30 November 2020 2 minutes ago, TJB-fox said: This meltdown is hilarious. Hardly like Brendan’s picked 8-1-1 or something unexpected. It’s the formation that has served us pretty well this season, what did people expect? Don't see it as a 5 at the back either. It’s 3 centre halves with two wing backs who you’d expect to be high and wide. Distinct difference between the formation and the personnel isn't there? Wingers score and create goals, central midfielders not so much and our ones have very little pace. Thomas and Justin aren't blessed for pace either so this whole set up is based around those horrible little flicks round the corners to Vardy that Dennis Praet keeps ballsing up.

RowlattsFox Posted 30 November 2020 Share Posted 30 November 2020 It's important Justin and Thomas are high up the pitch. If they are not then it's overly defensive. Rodgers prefers to have Barnes and Under to bring on. They start and we have Praet on the bench for plan B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Flair Posted 30 November 2020 Share Posted 30 November 2020 This is the sort of selection that is relying on being dangerous from set pieces and yet we haven't scored from a corner or free kick in 2020 I don't think? Astonishing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Not meaning to be harsh on Mendy, he has significantly stepped up). Also the formation that spectacularly tailspun in the second half of last season?

Let's see how it goes before the major overreaction. True but personally I would prefer wingers who can create and beat their man high up the pitch rather than our reserve full backs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
