Three sitting midfielders!?

 

Beale and GvB would have been slaughtered for that.

He's renown for rotating his options but it looks like the manager is making clear his preferences for a number of positions, including the entire defensive line.

Are you sure about that?

Sterling or Lawrence won't be sitting.

Lawrence could very well play deep, too, but I was referring to Diomande, Lundstram and Sterling.

 

Exactly. But they were not all sitting in the past, either.

 

I just remember that silly argument ('we don't need three DMs against such-and-such at home') being used quite often in the past.

 

It's how they are used is the issue, not the positions they play, which I've tried to explain quite often.

Fucking stellar so far.

 

Diomande gives us so much more balance as a left footer.

[Rousseau 9,361]

How has Dessers missed the target with that header?! 

 

Ridvan has fairly got stuck in so far. I'm admittedly late to the game, but he has recovered the ball twice in a couple of minutes. 

 

It was Ridvan's pin-point cross for the Dessers chance I mentioned.

We've lost our way slightly after that bright start.
