It's a very British based team ( apart From Elmo ), probably why we're crap.

Hutton aside, I actually don't think it's a bad lineup at all, assuming it's 4-3-3 as it appears to be.

The starting line up simply has to work, as I'm not convinced we have anything on the bench that will change the game if not.

I know I'm in a minority but, I would have liked to see Gabby on the bench. At least if we're struggling with half hour to go, he offers something a little different.

Still sticking with a close victory to us. Please, god!

Im glad Davis is getting a chance again, he tormented brighton last season, Hourihane has to get close to him to support him though.

£30m+ spent on Strikers and we end up with an untested youth player in the side! Sums up all our transfer dealings in a nutshell.
Yeah it really is ridiculous however he doesn't have many options given the circumstances...Hogan isn't completely fit after Reading, RMC is half way out the door after his antics and probably isn't match fit, Kodjia is injured and Gabby is...shite (and potentially injured?).

Considering the money spent on the squad (£104m was quoted the other day by someone) it really is mind boggling how we are still so weak.

Where is RDM, RDL and O'Hare?

I guess the other way of looking at that formation is its 4-5-1 at home! Either way, we really need a win. It'll be a solid if boring 1-0.  Terry to get the winner in the 77th minute.

Looks a boring side to me. Not sure who the match winner is there. Green maybe but can see a lot of long balls
