Ndidi and Soumare starting in the middle?

McAteer over Mavididi?

 

…can someone get the Ruud out thread started early?

 

Although he has dropped Faes so I take it all back! Legend!

I tried, it got deleted 😂🤣

[Filbert Fireworks]

Ndidi and soumare together is the stuff of nightmares. Rather skipp in wibks absence.

 

The CB pairing is too slow but no choice if okoli is injured.

 

Macateer over Mads dont understand but need at least one impact I suppose. 

 

The squad is doggo. 

[jonny_wright]

At least we didn’t spent the entire summer kitty on players that are either fringe or don’t feature! Glover & Rudkin out

McAteer will be subbed after 55-60 mins and Mav will get a chance against a tired defence. 

Surprised BDCR hasnt been dropped entirely for Alves or someone from the youth team.

Let's see how that shakes out in a few weeks. If somebody like BEK wasn't even getting a look it, let's take it as a positive that he's in after just 2 days of training.

[Devonfox1884]

I reckon Kasey scores in a 2-1 win tonight.

[Molson Canadian]

RVN would have destroyed our defence in his playing days.  Gosh. 

[Spence]

You lot really do make me despair... i'm convinced you're on the wind up as surely you can't all be that totally clueless.

 

Clearly he's come in to make changes and that's what he's doing, but how do you expect him to drop Justin when there is no replacement... Faes is a technically very good defender, but needed dropped for moaning and poor performances. Justin on the other hand is nothing but a work horse and a decent player with a bloody hard job playing as a RWB in this team. 

 

McAteer in the team for work-rate and versatility. People don't rate his strength too, he's physically a threat. 

 

Buanotte & Bilal are the two players with star quality, they HAVE to be in the eleven and clearly RVN has noticed that. 

 

let's get behind them and the manager tonight. COYF! 

 

[Filbert Fireworks]

Can't wait to watch soumare walking back whilst west ham break and some player who hasn't scored a professional goal before bags a hatrick whilst justin punches the ground and coady looks down hands on hips after a right side double blunder. 

[Trent Steel]

look it cant be any fvcking worse than it was before he took over,  Cooper was a welsh cancer than totally raked out any hope and creativity we had

so anything different is a bonus to me.

Surely it cant be any worse?

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

All this talk about the Netherlands has reminded me of when Leicesterpool called Youri Tielemans the "Dutch Dele Alli" in an immortal post 

[Shane]

Emile has spoken really well tonight on Amazon. What a legend 

[JimJams]

Couldn't give a shit who starts tbh. We've got to give Ruudbwoy some time to figure things out. If that means fxxk all til January but we have a definitive plan for January and the rest of the season then so be it. Blank slate for everyone, and the majority need one.

[J. James]

So many saying"what else can he do with this squad" or "best of a bad bunch"...

 

So true, they are dire.

 

Strange, l don't remember anyone saying that when Cooper selected pretty much EXACTLY the same lineup.. 🤔

 

Guess they all must have suddenly got much worse, can't think of any other reason at all.

 

But anyway, nailed on win cos RvN is here now.

whatever happens lets not be calling for Ruuds head after 1 match!

 

10 maybe yeah but come on lets give him a chance, i am looking forward to it

 

anything is better than Steve Cooper

Anyone calling for Ruud's head after 2 days and one match is clearly a fvcking muppet. Unless Wham take our 0-9 record from us then he deserves what he gets 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆

He will soon realise 4 at the back is not the way forward 

It probably is but not with the slowest centre back pairing known

Go and kiss Steve Cooper on the mouth if you love him so much

[Mickyblueeyes]

Conor Coady and Jannick could be a solid experienced, no nonsense pairing up and until January. 
 

or it could be an absolute disaster caught out by pace consistently

Possibly a tad too early? Wait until half-time and maybe try again, then? 👍

Other than Justin, Vestergaard, Coady, Kristiansen, Ndidi, Soumare and McAteer - that's a decent line-up.

[BirminghamFox]

Worst start ever to the game 🫣

Same squad cooper had.

 

i couldn’t be arsed with tonight, so season ticket in the kitchen draw and watching from home. 

You've got a season ticket and you can't be bothered to go along and support the team's first game under the new manager!?
