Dick heads cant see a tactical masterclass from Lampard.
3 at the back
Fresh legs in midfield, 2 up top, added width with wingbacks!

Im saying this is the perfect team for today's opponents.

Frank was banging on about not being able to rest his wingers and now he’s rested his wingers. Not sure there’s much more to it than that tbh.

Unless he's putting lati rcb and Thomas in the middle?
Click to expand...

Yes - could be. But it’s still choosing Lati (and Thomas) over Wolf as he could play RCB or in the middle.

Pleases for Lati after his performance the other day. He plays better in a 3 too so I’m not worried defensively today.

To be fair, many were calling for KKH at LB and for Rudoni to be dropped. I just wasnt expecting a back 5 and no wingers. I suspect Charlton werent either!!

I think MVE and Torp should have rested. Pneumonia isn't funny I can tell you, just not worth the risk.

Playing a right back at LWB when you’ve got two LBs on the bench shows how much faith Lampard has in this squad.

We need to give him the tools to finish the job.

He's played loads of games on the left

Shame on Torp but happy Lampard has rotated. Some looked dead on their feet on Monday.

He was poor v Ipswich. The bug is probably still lingering, the after effects at least.

I won't complain if it works, but I don't like it. Feels a bit panicked.

Needs some big performances today after the last poor showing.

Huge game for both MVE and KKH with the work expected of a wing back

Lets hope MVE is feeling better fitness wise.

I actually like the lineup. Would have had Wolf over Lati but other than that we are good.

He has, but it doesn't look good on Brau and Bidwell does it that they both got a chance in their favoured positions and now someone else has a go in what is definitely not their first choice position.

I quite like it too.

We dont have enough to keep playing 433 without running our players into the ground, we needed something different until Doug provides Lampard with the players he needs.

He's looking for a clean sheet, I reckon.

Same, I'm fine with it - EMC and Saka looked desperately in need of a rest, as did Torp (though we don't know if he's rested or ill).

Probably the only thing I'd have done differently is brought KKH in for MVE who also looked in need of a rest and played Brau/Bidwell on the left.

We needed some changes, no reason why that line up can't get the job done.
