It’s written like it’s a back 4?
I wish he’d start Powell.

Did someone bring TP back? What a negative line up that is

Tymon wide left in a 4-3-3?

It's wing backs again. Tymon and Clarke!!

Tymon wide left in a 4-3-3? That’s definitely how it’s written.

Looks like he's gone for as much pace as he can up front to try and counter

Powell needs to play in ‘big’ games like this
Shame Jags is out as don’t rate Wilmot however at least we see Souttar centre of the three
Just don’t see goals in that team

Just a pity that Laurent didn't get a starting nod. But that's a lot of pace up front. As long as we can play in behind them, there might be a chance. COYMP

Radio Stoke have tweeted it out as 4-3-3 with Tymon wide left. It'll be interesting to see how it's read out pre-match, but it looks like that

0-2 Burnley.
Easy game for them.

Going for the same failing CM. Depressing isn’t it. Midfield is such a crucial part of the team and ours is really really poor.

Long balls to run the channels on the counter? Souttar and sometimes Thompson can do that.
Under MON that sort of lineup would have sat as a 5-3-2 out of possession and then in attack mixed it up between 4-3-3 and 3-5-2, at least if we had time to build from the back.
But if the plan is to counterattack with long balls and pace then sitting 5 at the back takes the wind out as Tymon has to make up the distance.

Going for the same failing CM. Who needs a midfield. Send it straight over their heads and let tymon, brown and Campbell chase it

Post by nonameface on Dec 30, 2022 19:06:46 GMT
its how i see it, but with the players on the pitch it does allow us to move to a 4-3-3 should it be required, possibly just in attacking phases.

I was feeling a bit down too but doesn't whining on the team thread usually result in us looking stupid?

Shawcross is on Radio Stoke and he says he expects us to match them up with a back 4.
So, in short, noone knows!

He's trying to avoid a heavy defeat.

Post by shrewspotter on Dec 30, 2022 19:17:51 GMT
I think it's a back 3 with Clarke and Tymon wingback
If it was a 433 then he'd choose Fosu surely

For me this is looking like a 3-4-1-2. Brown and Campbell up front will be interesting!
