Bizarrely I read 4:45 and thought that’s what I’ve just spent that on a hotdog at Ikea

No it's the formation we'd have to play to stand any chance of winning this game

Extremely disappointed in how he's handling Bounanotte, just bizarre. I wouldn't mind if this was because Fatawu or a competent right winger was keeping him out but I presume it's the defensive issue which Ayew is equally as poor at helping out as he can't run.

Every manager we have makes decisions that are unfathomable to fans. Sick of Ayew starting.

I just don’t understand it at this point, our attacking movement looked the best it’s looked all season, so why change it?

 

I could understand if Bounanotte was a luxury player, lazy in the press but he sets a better pressing tempo than Ayew does. All I can think at this point is Ruud thinks Ayew is a better defensive option to support JJ for obvious reasons.

How do you look at Bouanotte against Man City and think 'yeah, we need Ayew back'.

 

I couldn't care less if he's going back to Brighton at any point. This is a game we MAY scratch something out from. We need him on the pitch.

To be fair, Mads, Fatawu and Ndidi are all injured. 2 start straight away. 

Not disputing that but we HAD to get our re recruitment spot on in the summer and Cooper’s obsession with bloating the squad with aging/overpriced PL dross, we have a weaker squad than this time last year.

Ayew straight back in, despite how well Facundo worked with the side last weekend. 

 

Horrible line up in spite of the lack of options. Thomas is going to get absolutely rinsed.

Nice of Ruud to do Emery's team talk for him with that line.

 

4-1 loss minimum.

Arguably played our best this season against Man City. Granted we lost but what sense is there changing Bounatte for Ayew?
Shocking decision imo. I’m seriously questioning RVN team selection.

I assume the perception is that Mavididi and Ayew will work harder defensively and be stronger than FB. 

 

If this was a home game against a bottom half side I'd be surprised if Facundo wasn't starting again. 

 

I assume the plan is the same negative stuff, stay in the game until the final third and make changes.

So we're expecting to keep both Édouard and Buanonotte despite neither of them playing and it hamstringing us from loaning anyone else. Make it make sense

The midfield worked well against man city. Shame to have ayew in there slowing things up.

Bizarre - what is his problem with Buononatte? I don’t think Ruuds going to last the season unless we get some major reinforcements

Ayew is horrible defensively though. He gets gassed after 25 minutes and cant keep up with his man.
