Throwing caution to the wind! Interesting.

Not sure I'd have dropped Mfuni

 

[hamil99]

Beat me to it

 

[stupot07]

Tchaouna not in the squad, must be injured, BTA right wing, and Cheriff up top.

Fotmob reckons this is the starting teamView attachment 55391

Thats the last starting 11 which it shows until both lineups are confirmed

He probably wouldn't have if we were playing 3 at the back.

No it isnt? Van ewijk didnt start last game.

 

[procdoc]

Had a nice little break from here during the international break. We really need to win this

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Yes true.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Change of formation then

 

[b12345]

Good formation but would've started Mfuni over Pinnock. Should never be playing 5atb at home and even though we won it wasn't perfect against Forest

 

[Skybluedogwood]

Wtf no Mfuni??

 

[fatso]

Asking a lot of Cherif to be leading the line so soon, I hope he's ready and takes his big chance.

Also, it looks like Simms is now fourth or fifth choice CF when everyone's available!

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Cherif getting the start is big confidence boost for the lad. Hope he takes his chance.

[Sky Blue Wozza]

Even after losing 4 out of the 5 games played so far, the font we are using for our team announcements is by far the most offensive thing this season

 

[Nick]

Wonder if we will get to see if we have var today hopefully same again as against forest.

 

[Skybluedogwood]

Please can I take a point now?!

 

[Great_Expectations]

Another change in line up and tactics, but on paper it’s a decent team. Never a fan of BTA on the wing but I assume it’s on merit from the last game and his pressing ability.

Interested to see Cherif from the start too….

But either way, thank God the shite international break is over and we can get back to football - and this place is always more interesting then too.

 

[Gallacher#7]

Didn't think we'd see a back four tonight. Nervous now

 

[stupot07]

Wtf no Mfuni??

Because we have changed formation and not playing 3 centrebacks

 

[PVA]

Looking forward to seeing Cheriki, I think he's shown some promising stuff in his appearances so far

Cherif lead the line against Villa and he played quite well so not sure on that

 

[fatso]

Please can I take a point now?!

Why?
You've got to be looking to win your home games against this class of opposition if you want to stay up.

Let's go for it, and see what happens

 

[stupot07]

Good formation but would've started Mfuni over Pinnock. Should never be playing 5atb at home and even though we won it wasn't perfect against Forest

Pinnock is the only player in the staring 11 with PL experience. Mfuni played well against Forest in a 3, but Pinnock was also colossal, 19 defensive contributions in that game including 10 headed clearances was the most by a mile.

 

[fatso]

Cherif lead the line against Villa and he played quite well so not sure on that

Villas reserves in a mickey mouse cup, will be a lot different than Newcastle United in a serious game.

 

[Ccfc_Addy]

Everyone deserves someone in their life who loves them as much as Frank Lampard loves Ephron Mason-Clark

Not quite the Villa reserves

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

BTA played more minutes in these first 6 games than I expected him to play all season.

Tchaouna barely had a kick since Hull and want to see Gboho starting.

The Man City issues - sounds mad but just a thought ?

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

The font, the layout - everything about it is just shit to the extreme.

 

[fatso]

How many changes did both teams make?

 

[Ccfcisparks]

The Man City issues - sounds mad but just a thought ?

what impact are they gonna have

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Has some sinister lab recreated a DNA hybrid of Cherki and Cherif?

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

One thing you can’t knock is BTA work ethic and press. We need as much of that as we can on the PL.

 

[Ccfc_Addy]

It's honestly lovely to be back, despite the rocky start to this season I've really missed being here
