5 at the back again... at home?? If they go for it like the last game what's the problem? (Apart from Thompson)

It's important we take the game to Hull from the off. We need to get up and at them and not give them a chance to breathe when they're in possession.
We need to get another win on the board as soon as possible.

Are people saying it’s negative just because we’ve got three centre backs? It wasn’t negative in the week - Johnson constantly got forward, we created plenty, we took the game to them? I admire your positivity. Are you genuinely happy with that team?

Negative shite. Makes a rod for his own back with these decisions. Probably our best attacking display apart from Rotherham in the last game with this line up, given the lack of goals two up top is a must atm.

Jesus fucking wept 5 at the back against Hull fucking City. Fuck off Alex. This is a Hull team who won at Leicester in their last away fixture, have only lost one game (on the opening weekend) and will go 4th if they win. We are wracked with injuries and now a suspension and have most of our squad familiarising themselves with English football. Who's suspended?

What a steaming pile of negative shite. Yes you are 😄 In all seriousness the formation can be as attacking or defensive as you make it, as can any formation We attacked more in the week than we had in the previous 3 games combined Not sure Hull will be as open a Huddersfield were though

Was close to being an excellent performance against Huddersfield.
Makes sense to keep with it.
People crying about chopping and changing them moan when there’s some consistency.
It wasn’t 5 at the back. It was 3 at the back.

If they go for it like the last game what's the problem? (Apart from Thompson) we were decent on weds but i wouldn’t say we went for it , maybe if we played a more attacking formation weds we would have won because Huddersfield were shite Defence was the problem, and some finishing, not the attacking, we went for it much more than we have in most games, we should have been clear away by half time with the chances we had.

Any Stoke manager that starts with 3 at the back should be sacked on the spot.

Our comments show the problem. We have no idea how we are going to set up. Players need consistency. Stick to a formation. Drill the players to fully understand the system.
We are worrying about the opposition to much. Football is supposed to be a simple game.

I admire your positivity. Are you genuinely happy with that team? I don’t see the negativity around it, certainly, it’s the team that played in the week and created plenty only with Thompson in for Pearson? Would I rather we were playing a 433/4231? Probably on balance but don’t see this as some kind of pre-game surrender, it wasn’t negative in practice in the week, why is it now?

Jesus fucking wept 5 at the back against Hull fucking City. Fuck off Alex. Didnt feel like 5 at the back at Huddersfield, we were on the front foot for the majority of the match. The expectation will be more of the same today with Johnson and Goch spending most time in the Hull half rather than our own half ... it was as though we were playing 5 in midfield rather than 5 at the back. These folk just trott out the same hysterical crap no matter what the actual game looks like it’s like the flat earth society. Heat maps don’t talk of such heracy you’ll be burned at the stake.

It looks like we’re setting up for a draw. I usually try and see the positives but right now I can’t see anything other than a Hull win. I hope I’m wrong.
