    The only way I see a 3CB lineup working is if Lavia plays as the only defensive midfielder, forming a flat diamond.
    I then see Lavia forming the bottom of another narrow diamond, with JWP and Moi playing ahead of him and Mara being the top of the diamond, in the 10 position.
    Perraud and KWP give the width and Che goes anywhere across the front.
    That I can see might work.
    If we line up with 2 defensive midfielders then I think we will lose the midfield.

    Well that was suitably underwhelming.

    Apparently if level on points, goals scored and goal difference, your position is decided by the quality of the light show.

    They could have at least got some drones above the stadium or something

    Nice to have Darude - Sandstorm back on. Used to love hearing that as the team came out

    Feeling good before kick off, gotta feeling we will see a football game happen, possible that there might be a goal or two.

    Can’t wait for his, “Saints player wasn’t fouled but was actually fouling the Forest player by using his shin against his boot” comments.
    Or a completely innocent connection between a Saints’ arm and a Forest head, with him suggesting there was malice involved.
    That he played for Forest should at least make him neutral.

    Christ, it's bad enough. The last thing we need is the grim reaper commentating.

    Ankersen will be pleased. We have a 51% chance of winning, according to the computer. #stats

    Might find a stream with foreign commentary instead.

    Either that or cut my ears off with a hacksaw.

    JWP noticeably more forward thinking already, knowing Lavia is behind him.
