I was thinking "YES, finally, 3 in the middle". Then on the BBC it's 4-4-2. Brilliant. 2005 are on the phone, Eddie, they want their tactics back.
At least Lewis is starting. I am surprised with Fern not starting. I am not surprised with Lascelles starting given what Eddie said this week. If he costs us a goal today he’s going to get some stick and I think Eddie might start getting some questions asked about why he is picking out of form players.
This is abject. We could’ve watched this ****ing crap with Bruce in charge. What the **** is Howe even doing? Shapeless and structureless, again.
My observation so far…..Howe has changed nothing, just what did they do during the international break….he’s completely relying on individual performances, a bit of brilliance from Max or a Hollywood pass from Shelvey
