[robbiethemole]

Do we have to ?? hahaha

 

[clint van damme]

Fir fucks sake get the new man in for Saturday and let him get cracking.

 

[skybluecam]

Get Lampard in and play 433 and we’ll win

 

[ccfcricoh]

new manager, back at home, easier game than we've had in about 6 or so games

comfortable home win incoming

 

[skybluelee]

I'm coming to this (no wins in 13) so get on Cardiff at 18/5 whilst you can.

Revert to a back 4 surely. Have to start on the front foot:

Dovin
MVE, Thomas, Binks, Bidwell (can we get 60 mins out of him?....)
Sheaf, Eccles
Saka, Rudoni, EMC
Bassette

 

[Saddlebrains]

433 for me has to be

Dovin
Milan Thomas Binks Bidwell
Torp Sheaf Eccles
Tats Simms EMC

 

[Perennial Lurker]

433 for me has to be

Dovin
Milan Thomas Binks Bidwell
Torp Sheaf Eccles
Tats Simms EMC

Swap Binks for Kitching and get that partnership working again . Was our best back four by a distance last season

 

[napolimp]

Have to win this one. Otherwise we'll be on 17 points and we'll have to win some other ones.

 

[ccfcricoh]

433 for me has to be

Dovin
Milan Thomas Binks Bidwell
Torp Sheaf Eccles
Tats Simms EMC

hard to disagree with much of this... we really need to cement our GK slot though, changing helps nobody, will be interesting to see who the new coaches favourite is out of the 3

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

My lineup will be:

Dovin
MVE
Thomas
Kitching
Binks
Eccles
Sheaf
Torp
Sakamoto
Simms
EMC

We need to be winning this game and fancy us for a 2-0 win!

This is what I’d go with.

 

[Hutch11]

Get Dovin back in goal
Back 4
Then 3 and 3
And fuckin stick to it

 

[MalcSB]

Get Dovin back in goal
Back 4
Then 3 and 3
And fuckin stick to it

Even when we have conceded the obligatory 2 goals.

 

[Hutch11]

Even when we have conceded the obligatory 2 goals.

Nah I'd do that before we've conceded any goals

 

[Legia Sky Blue]

Got to get a new manager in before this game whether it be Lampard or whoever. I don't think this state of limbo helps anyone.

 

[Seamus1]

What I hope to see ;

Dovin
Van Ewijk Thomas Kitching Bidwell
Sheaf/Eccles Rudoni
Sakamoto Mason Clark
Torp
Bassette

What I fear will be the more likely;

Collins
MVE Lati Thomas Binks JDS
Sheaf Eccles
Sakamoto Torp
Thomas-Asante

 

[David O'Day]

What I hope to see ;

Dovin
Van Ewijk Thomas Kitching Bidwell
Sheaf/Eccles Rudoni
Sakamoto Mason Clark
Bassette Simms

What I fear will be the more likely;

Collins
MVE Lati Thomas Binks JDS
Sheaf Eccles
Sakamoto Torp
Thomas-Asante

If it's Lampard it's far more likely to be a 4 at the back

He's a 4-3-3 manager

 

[stevenorfolkcov]

Lampard’s to do list before Saturday to get us a comfortable 2-0 win:

1. Teach Thomas how to pass.
2. Recall Dovin.
3. Play Sakamoto on the right.
4. Tell Mason-Clark to do the simple stuff right rather than the stepovers.

Easy, although I do accept no.1 is a big ask.

 

[Skybluecol]

I'd play a 4-2-3-1 formation

Dovin
MVE Thomas Kitching Bidwell
Sheaf Eccles
Rudoni Torp Mason-Clark
Simms

Think we'll win 3-1

 

[Otis]

Won't Bassette be in?

I see not many have him included in their line-ups.

May I ask why?

 

[shmmeee]

I think Lampard will go with Simms as he knows him.

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

I think Lampard will go with Simms as he knows him.

And after 10 minutes he'll know what we know.

 

[Otis]

Just noticed that, even though they lost, Cardiff had 24 shots last night. Definitely something our defence needs to prepare for and be aware of.

The QPR keeper was very busy apparently.

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Back to basics 44 fucking 2. Old school boot the ball at the strikers hope something sticks if not get it in the fucking box and header it. If that fails resort to putting their best player in row FF

We don’t have any players who can do any of those things sadly.

If they do that against our comical back line, and catalogue of shit keepers, we are looking at at 24 nil loss!

Hey don’t be harsh! Some of those shots might have been off target!

Don't be so overly dramatic.

They won't bag more than 8 or 9.

 

[Otis]

Yeah.

A lot of blocked shots, so that's something we are going to possibly have to match.

There you go! We would only lose 7-0!

 

[SkyblueTexan]

No more Collins in goal please.

 

[The watchmaker]

There you go! We would only lose 7-0!

Cardiff aren't that good at the back. 7-2.
