I like the idea partially about 5 at the back, we used to play it very well under the Burley era. How about with what you have said but with a forward line of Hirst, with Delap and Szmodics behind

I suspect that McKenna will try a different formation, and change things around a bit.
 
Reading a lot of references to and comparisons with the opening game with Liverpool, and I'm not surprised. Feels like we have a completely different team to the one that won so many plaudits. We've effectively had to run preseason again. Which - from a certain point of view - makes it all the more impressive we're not in the relegation places.

Luongo was singled out for praise in that Liverpool game. Get him back in the XI.
