Because he is, in fact, the girl you asked to the school disco in 1997. She didn't have socks either. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special-K Posted 19 September 2021 Share Posted 19 September 2021 Great to see soumare start looks he can become a really important player for us Hopefully maddison proves us all wrong today and has a decent performance if not he must be dropped! would have much preferred kelechi in that role linking up withvardz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tickler28 Posted 19 September 2021 Share Posted 19 September 2021 (edited) My 2 most recent memories of us using the diamond formation yealded polar opposite results: Southampton away 2017 - Disaster Villa away 2019 - Success Feel like today could be similar in terms of being a huge success or an epic fail Edited 19 September 2021 by tickler28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filbertway Posted 19 September 2021 Share Posted 19 September 2021 Its either a diamond which I imagine won't be pretty, or its Maddison on the wing, which again anyone with eyes and a brain can see, won't be pretty Hard to see past Brighton for me. Everything just feels a bit flat atm and feels like some fortunate results have been papering over cracks for a while. Good to see Bouba get a first league start!

Inadvertently you've summed up the problem, neither deserve a place currently. Maddison we have seen in the past has been a really good player and just needs some time maybe. You could give Perez another 5yrs and he'd still be gash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Phil Bowman Posted 19 September 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 19 September 2021 For me, with that line-up, I can’t see past it either being a heavy defeat, or a narrow defeat, or maybe a narrow or a comfortable win, unless it’s a draw. 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Flair Posted 19 September 2021 Share Posted 19 September 2021 19 minutes ago, Phil Bowman said: Well I can think of some logical reasons: Iheanacho, while capable of magical moments, also very often brings everything grinding to a halt. Daka is new and still finding his feet at this level. Also, and more importantly, your two ‘clowns’ are completely different types of players to Daka and Iheanacho. For all Iheanacho's faults and there are some, nobody can deny that in 2021 he continues to score and assist at an I credible rate. I find it baffling that with barely any of our support attackers showing an iota of form that Rodgers is willingly choosing to limit Iheanacho's gametime and us scoring less goals as a result. I'd be fine with it if Maddison was doing well, but it's indefensible and we are relying on Maddison sorting himself out whilst playing out of position. It'll be no surprise if we maintain our worst start to a season under Brendan. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StriderHiryu Posted 19 September 2021 Share Posted 19 September 2021 If this is a 433 I’m very excited as you feel like it could be our best formation. The midfield 3 looked great against Napoli. Nacho and Daka are clearly the European first choice pairing so understand him not starting in this formation though would prefer Lookman to Maddison in 433. It could also be a diamond though I don’t think that system is best suited for Barnes strengths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s a debate to be had, but I was just responding to a post that said there are no logical reasons by suggesting there are in fact logical reasons. Me, I can see perfectly decent reasons for playing either Iheanacho or Maddison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
