Anybody else nervous because of all the promotion parties planned, the focus on us etc etc?

 

[Great_Expectations]

The wingers will both cut inside though, opening up the space for the wing backs on the overlap

the wingers will be tucked into the half spaces as they did away a pompey, it's a version of Glasner's system

Yea I get the theory and it’ll likely work, it’s more suited to Rudoni than EMC who does like to hug the line.

Seems a random time to change it up, but they’ve had a week to work on it plus the element of surprise.

What's the Blackburn team looking like tonight?

A bit weakened? Many changes? Os is that close to their normal starting 11?

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

Im nervous because of that team selection!
It looks disjointed as fuck!!!

Let's just hope Lampard has worked on something special during the week and it proves to be a tactical masterclass.

Shearer staring, Flowers in goal, Le Saux LB

Fabulous news. They are all well past it and have lost at least a yard each.

 

[wingy]

is that Mason Clarke and Simms in a front 2?

Possible.

 

[CCFCBat]

Rush
Lati Thomas kitch jds
onyek grimes
Mve rudoni emc
Simms

I think KKH would have started if that is the formation

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Markelo not even on the bench

 

[Nick]

I don't like how sky are talking like it's a done deal tonight.

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

EMC playing off Simms? Interested to see what this looks like.

I think it'll be Rudoni playing off Simms.

 

[Nick]

It gives me notts county t shirt vibes

 

[Evo1883]

A wembley esc feel around the place

 

[shmmeee]

Rudoni out wide and drifting around like the good old days?

Like Esse out wide on paper all over in reality. Never convinced by it tbh.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Feels like a home game almost

 

[Alkhen]

What's the matter love you've barely touched your Skyblue Turkey sausage

 

[wingy]

He could be trolling us and Latibeaudiere is in midfield...

It's a very adaptable side I think, expect to see FTT up the front at times I think!

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Wing backs?

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

For those who didn’t see it

 

[Finham]

On the day that peace is assured as well, unbelievable Jeff!

Lets just stick a pin in that one for now, eh?!

First tears of the evening

 

[Calista]

3-4-3

maybe Frank does read the forum and wanted to show that functionally 3-4-3 and 5-4-1 are at the same system

Had this discussion with Mucca before. Happy for it to be called one "system", but within that when the shape changes according to possession and the state of the game, surely the function changes, otherwise what's the point?

 

[wingy]

Rush
Lati Thomas kitch jds
onyek grimes
Mve rudoni emc
Simms

Imaginative.

 

[Finham]

5 at the back. Not saying it won't work, but seems like a bit of a cuck move from first inspection.

Hopefully second half we will unleash hell.

O'Neill to shag Christine in front of Franks dugout? Bet nobody had that at the bookies.

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

First tears of the evening

Hopefully happy tears later mate

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

CWR Convinced it’s a box. Don’t think we’ve even played one this season

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

 

[Ccfcisparks]

For those who didn’t see it

ok thanks in tears.

We've had this conversation before, it was a joke.
