Can't quite work out the formation in that? Unless we're playing Ramirez on the left and S.Davis behind Lambert
Schneiderlin, Cork AND Davis? Will be interesting to see how the team line up. I'm guessing a revert to our 4-2-3-1 with one of the three aforementioned midfielders operating in the CAM role and Ramirez out wide left again? Or will Gaston be CAM and Davis out left?
I agree seems more of a basic 4-3-3 in comparison to the one we normally play. Could be davis playing on the left though ? He played there as a sub a few times.
I thought it'd be pretty obvious as a flat midfield three. By Davis prefers a more advanced role so can easily adapt to a 4-2-3-1.
No surprise to see Mayuka dropped. I'd expect Steve Davis to play in front of Cork and Schneiderlin in Ramirez's normal position. Should add a bit more stability to midfield which is probably wise.
Shame no De Ridder, thought he looked bright against Sunderland but pleased to see JWP involved again
That lineup has a very solid look to it. No real width to the attack but hopefully with Fulham's poor central midfield we can just steamroller up the middle!
Schwarzer, Riether, Hangeland, Senderos, Riise, Dejagah, Sidwell, Baird, Kacaniklic, Berbatov, Rodallega. subs: Stockdale, Kelly, Karagounis, Briggs, Hughes, Ruiz, Frei.
Fulham team: Schwarzer, Riether, Hangeland, Senderos, Riise, Dejagah, Sidwell, Baird, Kacanikic, Berbatov, Rodallega. Fulham substitutes: Stockdale (GK), Kelly, Karagounis, Briggs, Hughes, Ruiz, Frei. Good to see Ruiz not starting.
Anyone know a good stream that isn't vipboxsports/firstrow? Those two have been slow for me recently. Seem to remember a cracking website a few games back, think it was DTLW who posted it?
So basically the formation that we started the season with, before Gaston became involved. I'm alright with that. Away from home, I don't mind three men in the middle of the park. (Although I probably shouldn't count my chickens just yet. When I saw our XI last match, I never expected to see 4-4-2, with Gaston left and Mayuka up front). Can't say I'm overly oppitimstic for this one though. Going for a 2-0 Fulham win.
