I did say torp would come in for Eccles rather than anyone else.

How do we know which way round the two CBs will play?

Yeah a lot of people assuming Lat will be on the left, he could be right and Thomas switched. Don't like either mind.

I may be wrong but I can't see Bidwell staying on all game, so who will come on to see the game out? Odds on it is JDS but maybe it will be Binks.

I thought Norman would have started after Frank talked him up this week.

Lati speaks well and talks a good game. Managers seem overly impressed with that.
I guess Lampard hasn't looked in detail at the keeper situation yet. Let's hope Collins doesn't make him do that by dropping a bollock today...

I would say Torp is more disciplined and positionally aware.

I hope Lampard has spent the week giving Torp, Sheaf and Rudoni a master class.

They are all going to come out wearing predators and shooting from the half way line into the top corner.

I'm not sure anybody is going to pay money for him if he's been on the bench all season.

I think it’s fair to say that Kitching has no future at the club.

How does Collins keep his place in goal ? He's a league 1 keeper at best.

Who negotiated the fees ? Did well with the EMC and kitching fees expecially

I think a lot of last weeks team was giving players who had the short a chance after not much time to assess.

Would have preferred Simms + Bassette up top, Eccles in and leave Sakamoto and EMC on the bench.

I’d be amazed if we paid £4m upfront for Kitching but yes ok

Never wanted us to win more to avoid the not so subtle gloating later if we don't. PUSB

But is he up to the physical demands of Millwall away?
Torp and Sakamoto might be too lightweight today, time will tell I guess.

At least we have options on the bench to change things.

Still think we'll win tbh, just a shame Lampard has been conned by the training merchant

I like the team. Pretty agnostic on the defence as they’re all crap and disorganised. So whoever they think they can get a tune out of I’ll give it a go.

Don't think Lampard has ever used a 2 striker formation in his career so you'll probably continue to be disappointed

Defensive situation worries me massively. Lati is a good utility player but that’s it.
Desperately need the Thomas and Kitching we had at the start of last year.

Not disappointed, just stating my preference.

Team is fine. Lati is a solid enough defender, albeit not a fan of the lob sided CB structure. And if it works and we keep a clean sheet it’s justified.

Either way, just please be a 6 and two 8’s. Torp cannot play in a holding two and Rudoni is not a 10.

I know I’m a broken record on it….
Please can that translate to Sheaf holding (6) and Torp/Rudoni playing as 8’s. Genuinely think that suits all three of them the best.
