    No we can't, Bruno is no midfielder. It's sacrificing his best skills to get 0,5 of actual midfielder. Makes no sense, I thought we already learned that's not a solution both short and long term.

    He won't play like a classic 8, more of a hybrid 8/10. Our shape should be more of a 4123 than a 424.
     
    I’m expecting nothing more than disappointment…so my evening can only get better.
     
    Another no Maguire, no stress day. Shame we McTominay back but our board just wants to keep it cheap.
     
    Remember when Ole rushed Maguire back into the side against Leciester. Glad to see Ralf not going down that route,
     
    I know we have injuries but we all love a good conspiracy so here we go…

    Rashford, Shaw, Maguire, Sancho, Lingard not making our team atm… possibly one of/part of the group causing most problems in our dressing room?

    The alternative is that they all happen to be shit at football right now.

    Under Ole there were rumours of a division between English players and the others. I think they backed Ole more, so I'm guessing like the Ole in posters, they're now the ones undermining Rangnick.
     
    Really worried about tonights match. We never do well against teams who defend in numbers and press the ball
     
    Sancho is out for a funeral.
    Shaw hamstring injury. Cavani also injured.
    Lingard dunno, hopefully signing for Newcastle for £45 million.

    Cavani injured again? If we got £5M Lingard it would be worth it given he'd be off for a free in the summer.

    Better than a midfield 2 without the defensive positioning though ;)

    Maybe, i mean it's the same 3 we had in the 4-2-3-1 with Bruno operating a bit deeper and slightly wider, discipline will still be an issue.
     
    Right, I'm just about to park my arse and waste another 90 minutes of my life and go to bed grumpy as feck again.

    Lets hope for much better this time........

    If the team doesn’t
    He won't play like a classic 8, more of a hybrid 8/10. Our shape should be more of a 4123 than a 424.

    yeah if you look at the average position map from the last game Cavani ended up being closer to the midfield two than Fernandes did.
     
    Easy 14 points. First time in ages I have 11/11.
    Now all they need to do is win!
    I’m hoping my top of the table challengers didn’t see this week as easy

    I had Maguire in over Lindelof :nervous:

    Prediction league is about the most exciting thing for me on match days at the moment
     
    Great another 90 mins watching Mctominay run around pretending he's KDB. Happy to see Maguire out of the first 11. Confused why Henderson and Heaton are on the bench, would make sense to put a youngster there for experience, rotate that spot once a week. Ah well, let's see what team turns up today, football roulette, here we go.
     
    But then people will say "personal reasons" are just an excuse and he's being DVBeek'd.
    I get that but what's the point of mentioning that Sancho asked not to play.
    It’s probably better than saying nothing as then there will be speculation on him being dropped from the squad
    He wouldn't be saying nothing though, personal reasons are exactly that personal reasons. I just think Ralf has a habit of giving a bit too much information at times and seemed a bit tactless here.
     
    Hard disagree. We went ahead by a flukey goal and were kept ahead by a DDG wondersave. We played alright and the best we have in a while, but it was still far from good IMO.
    They didn't have a sniff for the first half hour and we were away from home. We deserved to be 2-0 up when it came
     
    Better teams than us have struggled to win at Brentford this season

    We don't have a fecking prayer
     
    “Hype Mode” on BT Sport is something that should never, ever have happened. I’m actually dumbfounded that somebody would choose to watch football like that, is this the future? Kill me now

    Quite clearly for children. Nickelodeon have done something similar in the NFL.

    We were very wasteful, the goal was very lucky and Villa had two very good chances starting here.

    I agree it's the best we've played in a well....but it still just wasnt very good. Our first half team would have been torn apart by Chelsea, Liverpool, City, Arsenal, Spurs....
