My birthday is on Tuesday and I know full well that there is a Wanyama home shirt in the wardrobe with a hands off warning on it, a bit like the real Wanyama.
I don't want to, but his shorts are a bit like Eric Morecombe's. I swear the legs have metal hoops fitted.
I'm glad we're wearing red and white today as if be having a difficult conversation with the wife about wearing the green one before my birthday
So worried. I'm always nervous on match days, but it is like I have lost hope today. Given myself a good slap in the chops and a stiff drink.
532? Stekelenburg Soares Caulker Fonte Yoshida Targett Davis Wanyama Romeu Pelle Mane I'm really not a big fan of 532 and we've only seen it work against Everton when we played super defensively. I guess it may be a way of giving our fullbacks more protection instead of relying on a not yet reliable midfield unit for shielding. Personally think it may be a mistake and will lead to us looking flat up front, but very happy to be proved wrong!
So 3 at he back with Cedric and Targett getting up and down the wings then? Romeu and Vic the wardrobe doors, Davis and Mane behind the Big Man up top? I like this line up.
From four attacking players to two attacking players. Almost one extreme to another. But without any doubt, I would rather this. At least until Bertrand and Claise are fit, and we have signed Toby's replacement.
