Keener window-cleaner Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 I don't quite understand the line up, if we have Bacuna and Amavi as wing backs, where does then Adomah play? I thought he was an out and out winger. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodytom Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 To say we spent 60m that is one wank line up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keener window-cleaner Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Or could it be a 4-4-2 with Chester or Baker as full back, Amavi and Adomah on the wings and Ayew and Kodjia as strikers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubberman Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Too defensive for me. We'll be missing McScore again. nervous about this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id rather an extra body in midfield or upfront than at the back. Last week's performance was disgraceful. Formation didn't work. The way we were playing was great.. we were unlucky not to have more points.. wish he had more Faith in it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alreadyexists Posted September 24, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted September 24, 2016 (edited) I think it's: Gollini Chester Elphick Baker Bacuna Amavi Adomah Westy Jedi Ayew Codger (Christmas tree formation) Edited September 24, 2016 by alreadyexists Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 I can't get my head around why RDM has persisted with Westwood. Tshibola should be in the side now he's fit, would be more confident with our midfield if it was him and Jedinak as the pair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoaxn Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Not sure why people see 5-3-2 / 3-5-2 as a purely defensive/negative approach. It's a good shape to start with as it's highly adaptable without having to make subs or major system changes. Looking forward to this game. I'm hoping it's these or SHA that we first properly click against. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon_c Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Is Clark staring for them? Because if so, with Ayew, Adomah and Kodjia running at him, we'll definitely get at least one pen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Well I'm glad I've not parted with 40 notes to watch that pile of crap... I think we need more defenders and full backs starting FFS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 U never know, might be a 4-3-3 with Bacuna/Westy/Jedinak in midfield. Will probably be 5-2-3 thou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonic_bouma Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 No idea what formation that is. One thing I know for sure. Adomah will be out of position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be wise considering we concede fairly much and create many chances. Anything that works! Btw I thought 4-3-2-1 was the classic christmas tree formation, but I guess any formation that looks like a tree can fall in to that :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
