If I know this club, after holding off appointing Lampard for a so called easier game to start with - We get beat 1-0 tomorrow

But in all seriousness, I would be very disappointed if we can't get a win tomorrow

Not so sure, traditionally crowds dip at this time of year, were some really poor turn outs for the midweek fixtures across many clubs. We've the 5th highest average in the league, but it's an expensive game when buying game by game and many will be looking at the Xmas fixtures. Mate who goes to a few games a season just paid nearly £200 for 5 tickets for the Plymouth game. We should be happy with 26K+ tbh

Not sure if FL will have seen anything from Simms in recent games that warrants a start, personally.

Also think Collins will stay in nets.

Why Collins in goal? That attempt at a save for Burnley's first was pathetic, and the second wasn't much better. He's worth at least 1 goal conceded a game.

If so I think it would be Bidwell for 45 mins, thereafter all is as clear as mud.

Had problems in this system before when the wide attacking players don’t know the parts of the pitch they’re covering and we end up with the Swansea performance. You need someone a bit more disciplined like Sakamoto out side I think.

Does anyone think the mysterious Brazilian Aussie we bought in the summer will get a place on the bench?

Definitely suited to be a 433 type player.

4-2 win incoming. No other reason than just optimism mixed with knowing we'll gift our usual 2 obligatory goals to the opposition.

I am realllllly curious to see Frank's starting team sheet and trying to divine and read tea leaves before kick off to figure out what plan he has in store. How closely has he been watching the last few weeks, who might've gained his early trust.

Bassette does not look like a winger at all to me. For all the praise he gets he has little positional discipline and his only aim is to score goals.

Well spotted. The first goal replay showed he was really slow and went through the motions . I didn't spot it first time but pretty obvious on the replay.

3-0 to us. Shock we score early and keep a clean sheet for once.

He’s stopped f*** all since he came back in. We would be better off with a cardboard cutout.

The fact that we now consider that "disappointing" is a great thing

If he can be fit enough for 20-30 mins before Xmas that'll be a big help. He's right sided, yeah? Need Sakamoto to get some rest and need options for that flank.
