7 players on the bench, 2 of them are keepers, 2 are kids, 2 are useless
He's 33Just 4 pages in this thread. Lowest ever before a game?Ah Hojlund offered another start.
Glad to see mediocrity rewarded.Shouldn't be allowed 2 keepers on the bench. Stupid and pointless.
Don’t think we have a choice. Perhaps he gets subbed off if the usual nonperformance happens again.
There’s not a lot else we can do, Garnacho apparently isn’t completely fit, genuinely not sure what else we can do right now.
The sad thing is, I'm not certain which player that's a dig at!
I'm guessing it's about Hojlund's form, but even had we not selected him it could be said about the likes of Onana and Dalot (form), Zirkzee (end product)...
He's half way to his bus pass!7 players on the bench, 2 GKs
think it's a good decision to keep Garnacho on bench and bring him on at some point. He's only sub that could actually do something meaningful in attack.
No Dorgu, Mazraoui and Dalot wingbacks, obviously no Amad and a bench like that. Given our home form will be an achievement if we somehow win.The sad thing is, I'm not certain which player that's a dig at!
I'm guessing it's about Hojlund's form, but even had we not selected him it could be said about the likes of Onana and Dalot (form), Zirkzee (end product)...
It was aimed towards Hojlund but as you said, it could have easily been said for a few of those who start again today.
It's closer to 60 than to 0!Easy 11/11 this one to pick.
True. Maybe for the next game we could consider Amass or Kamason.
It's desperate but with Dalot and Mazraoui we're essentially a flat back five with Ugarte as well.
I'd like to see Heaven get some game time today because with De Ligt there at LCB we sit deeper.
Personally I’d have given Chido Obi a start. It’s at home, it’s a cup game, good experience and I’d hope that having a 17/18 yr old start ahead of you might buck Rasmus up.
No doubt, like you say, he’ll be subbed at 80 minutes after doing nothing and getting 1 touch in the Fulham area.boring.
looks like 5 at the back if players dont get their act togetherWhy isn’t Kone on the bench ?Hopefully Harry can head in a goal, De Ligt can swivel and shoot in a loose ball while Hojlund does a Hojlund.Who the hell is Murdock?
Will Murdock - academy keeper.0-2 down
Obi on 75th minute for his hat trick
Fans not hopeful of a victory.
Thanks. Never heard of him. Is Harrison injured?
Yep and bored of the boring shite football we've been playing this season,can't really blame them.
I haven't heard about whether Harrison's injured. Murdock's played most of his minutes for the U18s, and a handful for the U21s; I'd think Graczyk is first cab off the rank if Onana needs to come off.Going to be a tough game with that lineup and bench, really need a few players to step up. No pressure on the lad but we really need Obi to come in and boas it straight away.
Bassist for GorillazAm watching the warm ups live on YouTube and Hojlund is already missing from 6 yards out lool
Just happy to hear that he is getting on the end of chances, to be honest.Danny Murphy talking absolute keek on BBC again. Saying he should change the system and when challenged by Micah Richard does he mean tweaks he says 'No, play a formation the players are used to'' Because that has worked so well in the past Danny hasn't it.
They'll be many on here nodding their heads to that. Memories of goldfish the lot of them.Is there any reason or explanation to why we have 7 subs instead of 9? 2 of them being goalkeepers.
I know we’re bare - but surely two of the spots, including 1 of the goalkeeper ones, could have been given to a youth player?
When we inevitably go behind, Ruben has a plan.10/11 happy with thatOnly 7 on the bench?I'm trying to decide if Rooney is wearing a custom rug or whether he's colouring the top of his head.
Slow.
