    Just imagine the boos with 20,000 more people there!

    Although now they have Grealish I assume they’re given free kicks everytime a gust of wind goes near him.

    One idea for TF: tell the team to play faster each time the crowd boos

    That should stop the players inexplicably slowing down the moment they get into the final third

    Vic
    Porro, Danso, van de Ven, Spence
    Gray, Palhinha, Sarr
    Kudus, Bergvall
    Kolo

    **** LW off, it’s a black hole for us regardless of who starts there. Have Kudus and Bergvall just playing as tens who can drift wide and/ or give Spence and Porro a **** ton of freedom to bomb down the line.

    Sky article on our MF issues which mirrors in part our own thoughts here.
    I just totally disagree with the apparent final assessment that we have to keep playing Palinha AND Bentancur <doh>
    Home or away, the latter really should only be cover for the former.

    Honestly think Palhinha or Bentancur is the solution: Palhinha with Bergvall or Bentancur with Sarr

    Hopefully it’s

    Vic
    Porro Danso VdV Spence
    Gray Palhinha Bergvall
    Kudus RKM Simons

    Simons comes inside and Spence gets full reign down the left.

    Yes I was a bit taken back by Frank's quite forceful answer to that question.

    He seems totally sold on the combination, but most of us have no idea why.

    Palhinha sitting.
    Sarr pressing.
    Bergvall creating.

    Isn't that the best balance we can manage for now?
