I’m afraid he has to be in a double pivot against a physically strong side like West Ham and we know what that does to the rest of the team’s shape …… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotch Posted 13 February 2022 Share Posted 13 February 2022 Tough decision to be made here I think. WH have overrun us in midfield the last few times we've played them so I would really like to see us flood the middle of the park, with Ndidi in particular in there but then that leaves the problem of having to put either Soyuncu or Vesty at CB and that is a scary thought in their current form.

Popular Post CrazyKopCorner Posted 13 February 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 13 February 2022 It would be great to have more fight in the team today. Games have that distinctively Puel feel about them at the moment.

That was awful. I went myself at the end of the game not knowing there would be a lap of appreciation - still makes me cringe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s certainly a brave line up but given the context of what’s going on, I don’t see the manager going with a plan and tactical approach which risks a 1-4 result. I think that’s the kind of outcome which drew the curtains on Claude. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d still rather have him in there over soumare though. What soumare has in size is lost through lack of effort/stamina to track runners with the ball. Rice will have a field day against him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the blokes I was with asked me what I thought of Coatsworth, I was just in the process of replying...something along the lines of he's still got the first touch of a panel beater - the second he struck one of the most memorable screamers I've seen from a City player. To be fair to him, he epitomised the ugly grit of Little's side one of the reasons we overturned Lionel Pickering's supposed sleeping giants in the play off at Wembley. Some of our current players, as technically gifted as they may be, could probably learn a lot from looking back at the physicality of Coatsworth, Willis, Agnew, Speedie and Walsh. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
