Sunbury Fox Posted 28 August 2022 Share Posted 28 August 2022 A bit of me wonders whether we should go back to the midfield we played so effectively in the first full season under Rodgers ie Ndidi behind Youri and Maddison with Barnes and Perez wide and Vardy up top. I know KDH has done well for us and works so hard, etc but I do think his inclusion has led to a formation change that doesn't really suit us and has often led to Maddison being shunted out to the right wing. In saying all this, I know that Ndidi is off form and Youri might have left by Thursday so it's unlikely to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Shep Posted 28 August 2022 Share Posted 28 August 2022 Play Armartey is just us basically saying please take all 3 points Man U. Sadly as Rogers now has this victim mentality as he can't sign a defender he will play him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LestaAl Posted 28 August 2022 Share Posted 28 August 2022 Can we win this one , I don’t like being bottom of the league. I’m going to have to take my LCFC air freshener out of the car! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely no chance of us keeping a clean sheet against anyone, let alone against Fernandes, Rashford, Martial, Ronaldo, Sancho, Elanga and Antony. Oh and now they have Casemiro probably little to no chance of scoring either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wymsey Posted 28 August 2022 Share Posted 28 August 2022 Hopefully there's a massive rocket fired up their you know what. They need to treat this game as one where the players need to play well for the sake of their careers after what's been happening. Hopefully the Fofana situation is resolved to suit all parties.

Royston. Posted 28 August 2022 Share Posted 28 August 2022 Utd will believe their own hype again after winning consecutive games. That's we we got em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lad1966 Posted 28 August 2022 Share Posted 28 August 2022 (edited) The problem is, that the Manager has to turn the situation around and for me he’s not showing me any evidence he’s doing anything to encourage the players to improve the situation. There’s nothing coming from the players either from their interview to give the fans any encouragement. I just hope, if and it’s a big if, we bring anyone in, that they type of players that will lift the squad and more importantly the fan!🏆 Edited 28 August 2022 by Lad1966 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lee7 Posted 28 August 2022 Share Posted 28 August 2022 I think we will keep the ball for long periods but then an Amartey mistake will cost us and we will end up losing 0-2. United are not great but at the moment we are terrible so i can't see us causing them too many problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw him pull off two or three saves and get mentioned by the pundits on both channels as doing well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our biggest disadvantage will be not playing against Maguire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 28 August 2022 Share Posted 28 August 2022 They haven't beaten us since the last game of the 2019/20 season when they got top 4 over us. Since then we've beaten them 3 times and drew twice, we were absolutely robbed at Old Trafford last season. Anyway, not a chance we go 6 games unbeaten vs them. So it's another loss to be followed up with another one at Brighton and 1 point from 6 games surely sees the end of Rodgers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingkisnorbo Posted 28 August 2022 Share Posted 28 August 2022 I hope that soyuncu chant doesn’t get re-homed around Fofana. It was cringey and wank in 2019, it certainly won’t be any better now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daka ...the amount of people choosing to go for a back three is worrying!!! Soyuncu does not thrive in it, and unless we choose to play a "low block" having Vestergaard in your backline is not a good tactic. At least if the players were comfortable in their positions, that would be one less thing to worry about, and they can then concentrate on winning their own individual battles. I don't see Rodgers playing on the counter so I suspect he will try to match up to the United formation. If however we do play on the counter, then I would rather have Praet in, to make up a workmanlike midfield, and Youri consigned to the bench.

The only time I ever advocate a back 3 is against Man Utd, they have been appalling against us when we've played it and not pressed us, so easy to expose them. New era though, surely can't be as bad.
