Whinge about no new signings but Dewsbury Hall was like one last year, so give the lad a chance i thought this. what would be the harm in having him involved and as a option off the bench in these early games. hes something different at least! 1
Claudio Fannieri Posted 14 August 2022 Posted 14 August 2022 He is bemoaning a lack of wingers so why not promote Maswanhise, ideal opportunity to give him a debut and go back to the 4 at the back shape he craves or if he wants to stick to members of current squad go with the diamond in midfield, either way Brendan stop being a smacked arse in picking 3 at the back to try and prove a point to the board. 4
Fazzer 7 Posted 14 August 2022 Posted 14 August 2022 Lose this one and he has to go. No if’s no but’s. Get him out. 1

At home we should be taking the game to teams especially with the talent we do have. I'd also like Rogers to play the system he wants us to play and make the players we have fit or look to our youth.

Grebfromgrebland Posted 15 August 2022 Posted 15 August 2022 If not Southampton where is our next league win coming from? 1
ARM1968 Posted 15 August 2022 Posted 15 August 2022 I believe this game is a must win. I think it is pivotal to our whole season. 1
turlo Posted 15 August 2022 Posted 15 August 2022 Has Barnes been ruled out for this game or is it still an unknown timeframe for him returning?

Based on the original prognosis (6 weeks) he is still around a month away from returning to training yet alone being match-fit. 1 1 1
murphy Posted 15 August 2022 Posted 15 August 2022 If (and it's a big if). 3 atb is the reason we ship goals, I think we need to change back to 4-2-3-1 and make do and mend with our wide options. My preference would be to bring Thomas in, shift Justin to RB and play Castagne wide right. Wide left is tricky. I guess we only really have Kevin. (No offence Kevin) Tielemans can have a rest for this one. Anyway: Ward Justin Fofana Evans Thomas Ndid KDH Castagne Maddison Albrighton Vardy
kingfox Posted 15 August 2022 Posted 15 August 2022 As some other posters have smartly put on previous pages, the line up for this game has to be something like this. Ward/Iversen Castagne - Fofana - Evans - Justin Tielemans/Praet - Ndidi - KDH Maddison Iheanacho/Daka - Vardy As I’ve just put on the Rodgers thread, 4-3-1-2 is the ideal formation for us whenever Barnes is out. Stop with the negative three at the back bullshit. Bench Amartey and get that extra attacker into the team. 4
Popular Post jmono84 Posted 15 August 2022 Popular Post Posted 15 August 2022 If he goes 3 atb again then I’ll be fully BR out, even if we get a positive result. It stifles everything about our game and if he can’t see how much of a disadvantage it puts us in then I’ve lost hope for him. 5
Angus Scott Posted 15 August 2022 Posted 15 August 2022 Why speculate on the team, it will be the same as the first two games unless we have injuries. It was unbelievable that the same team was selected at Arsenal & even more unbelievable that no subs were introduced until 60 minutes+. He has 9 on the bench but for whatever reason doesn't want to play any of them
Scotch Posted 15 August 2022 Posted 15 August 2022 Perez needs to start this game, surely?! If nothing else, he's good for a few goals against Southampton every year...

It can work as a formation, but we just don't have (or refuse to play) three centre backs who can play it, or the wide options up top to take pressure off the backline.

Don't think I've seen him in any training pics either. Odd.
J. James Posted 15 August 2022 Posted 15 August 2022 I can't see us achieving more than 35 ish points this season and that figure includes 3 against this lot, lose or draw and the omens are the opposite of good l think ☹️ 1

Worst its ever been. poor Brendan. its ok though once we start winning a few games on the bounce, theyl all be offering to give him a hand job and calling LCFC #MASSSSSIIVEEEE once again.

Bobby Robson sacked after 4 by Newcastle, De Boer after 4, Sturrock and Dalglish both after 2. Bobby Robson had much more of an affinity with Newcastle then we do with Rodgers so it's not out of the realms of possibility Edited 15 August 2022 by Tommy Fresh

He wont be sacked if we draw/lose this one, but with our fixtures we would likely be in the relegation zone come mid September, especially as all the promoted sides have already picked up points.

Stop with the negative three at the back bullshit. Bench Amartey and get that extra attacker into the team. It's absolutely shocking Rodgers insists playing 3 at the back. I can't understand what's happening. The team you posted either on 4-3-1-2 or 4-1-2-1-2 can rip apart teams like Southampton.
