    Possibly a good point, but I don't want to see Lyanco (or Bednarek!) in the team...

    Yeah possibly reading too much into it, and even if we start with 3 and get an injury we can switch to a 4, or when we are probably losing after starting with a 3 can switch to a 4 again.

    Really now, what on earth is he doing. Why is DCC playing in a B team match.

    We have got rid of the regular B Team starters.

    The bloke's a complete fraud. Either that or God has told him to play a back 5. :emoticon-0114-dull:

    The remarkable thing is that he has, at least twice, patted himself on the back in post-match press conferences about making halftime changes that resulted in us looking miles better.

    And both times, that change was moving from a back five to a back four.

    He said this just 3 days ago! How can not see a back 5 does not work?

    Jesus Christ. He is utterly inept.

    He has no idea who our best players are

    95% sure the side will be:

    Bree - Lyanco - Janny fking B - Salisu - Perraud
    Diallo - Alvarez
    JWP
    Onuachu - Che

    And then he'll have no idea why we cannot structure attacks with any pace, and why we're getting torn apart down the right.

    Kinda sounds like they won't be involved in any capacity v Brentford unless not too distant future is tomorrow. So makes even more sense to play Orsic in the youth team game today then.

    Yes, definite ball retention there with that trio. I like the look of Bree. His delivery looked good, and he looks relatively technical.

    If you think the bedwetting on here is bad, you should go on Twitter, it's carnage on there. The more people moan about him the more I want to support him, because I can. God willing.

    Orsic I don't mind too much, depending on how long he's on the pitch. He's yet to play more than 6 minutes of a league game so I doubt he'd have featured much tomorrow anyway.

    And he has been awful for us which I can only assume is due to being well off the pace as he has played at a good level before.

    F*cking save the moaning guys until;

    a) Jones has picked the team
    b) We’re playing badly
    c) We’ve lost

    Pre-match is all about irrational hope, and puns.
