Give the guy a chance FFS. Get behind the lads. 

It'd be hard to see for the bus though.

[Ryy]

Ndidi and Justin over Facundo and Ricky P is a war crime and Cooper should be prosecuted

[TonyN11]

Pretty decent team that!

 

 

 

.......

 

Villa, that is

We don’t score with that team 

There you go fixed it for you 

[ACF]

Okoli Faes partnership could be an absolute bomb scare 

[westernpark]

My disappointment over Vestegaard not starting, what a turnaround from the big fella, he’s been excellent in the last two games. 

[Lionator]

After the Tottenham game he said that he got it wrong in the first 60 minutes and was far too negative, and he’s done nothing except repeat that ever since. Make it make sense. 

[adam]

Grim that.

[sm1]

One of Bobby or Ayew is always going to play,  because they are Cooper signings. Also what is Soumare doing on the bench ahead of Hamza. 

[FosseSpark]

It'll be Ayew in from the left, Fatawu in from the right. I like the idea of strength to start and then Goodnight, Canoe and Mavi to throw into the mix later on in the piece. 

Okoli is for pace against Watkins. Vest would get cooked. 

[Unabomber]

Winks skipp and ndidi wow 

[Iwebema]

On paper it's a shambolic negative team selection.

Lets hope he has a cunning plan because that looks like a team that won't cross the halfway line and are playing for a 0-0

[Will1981]

Soumare should not be in the 25 squad let alone the bench

 

[hejammy]

Let's have a poll as to what time and who out of Faes or Okoli will self destruct

Could have done with a bit more creativity

 

Depends how you define "creativity"

That's a try and shithouse it line up.

I know I originally like the idea of Cooper because he would be pragmatic but bloody hell

 

Fatawu going to be expected to do everything going forward?

It will be more of the same for Fatawu.  Receive the ball at the halfway line with back to goal while JJ stares at him and no one runs into space. I feel sorry for him, not being able to play the role of an attacker and do what he does best.

Soumaré shouldn't be anywhere near a football anywhere.

No, no, no.  The obvious play is long ball to Ayew. Draw foul.  Get every lump in the box.  Quickly run back to defensive positions when the free kick hits the wall.  Repeat.

Sounds fine to me, more entertaining than tippy tappy around the back

[Collymore]

Horrendous team. Cooper I feel is desperate to make us just survive probably for his career too. That's how I feel. That's not necessarily bad, but I don't think we're going to be entertained this season. 

[FosseSpark]

Coopers idea is definitely keep us in first halfs, go for it in second. 

[Chico1958]

We don't see the boys in training so we don't know the fitness levels.

Although I agree with some of the negative comments. 

If they're wearing the shirt they're still the Team I support. 

[adejo92]

This should be riveting
