I don't know what this line up is meant to be. But as ever good to see McGinn starting and two up front. And seemingly 3 at the back.

Isn't it just 433 with Konsa at right back?
Title: Re: Fulham vs Aston Villa Match Thread
Post by: Sexual Ealing on October 20, 2022, 06:39:00 PM
I assumed it was five at the back, but maybe Konsa is at right-back. Whatever, it looks like he's panicking.

I'm impressed that he's given the Bailey Watkins Ings trio another go. Let's see you bang a couple in guys.
Title: Re: Fulham vs Aston Villa Match Thread

Konsa is no RB, and if it's 3 is he really considered Bailey as WB???

He's doing a Truss here.

Mate of mine suggesting Bailey and Young are playing as wing backs.
Title: Re: Fulham vs Aston Villa Match Thread
Post by: john2710 on October 20, 2022, 06:41:31 PM
With Cash coming back from injury 3 games in a week may be too much. I would assume that Bednarek is in for extra height & strength against Mitrovic.
Cut the mistakes out & we'll win.
Title: Re: Fulham vs Aston Villa Match Thread
Post by: ASHTONVILLA on October 20, 2022, 06:42:09 PM
Konsa as an overlapping fullback providing width whilst McGinn covers right back. What could possibly go wrong.
Title: Re: Fulham vs Aston Villa Match Thread
Post by: Vegas on October 20, 2022, 06:42:17 PM
If it is just 433 with those changes, couple of questions… does he think Konsa is a better RB option than Cash, or is Cash slightly injured? And does he think Bednarek is a better CB than Chambers? Or is it Bednarek to RB? Can he play there?

It's surely our standard formation with Konsa RB?  Why not play Chambers instead of Bednarek?

Anyway, I'm as excited as always in the build up to a Villa game.

Title: Re: Fulham vs Aston Villa Match Thread

He did say in his presser that Fulham like to put crosses into the box which might explain why he is playing with wing backs, if he is.

Post by: Abbeyfealeavfc on October 20, 2022, 06:47:57 PM
He may keep playing them as a group of 3, but I'm unconvinced that McGinn, Ramsey and Luiz will supply our forwards.
Watkins and Ings doesn't work.
If he's trying 3cbs what he needed was a preseason to try it out...oh!
Come on the Villa players win for yourselves and the fans! UTV!

Telltale signs of a manager coming to the end of his tenure:

1) “I won’t walk away” / “I won’t hide” comments
2) Kamikaze, throw all the strikers on substitutions
3) Bizarre team selections/formations

Three at the back isn’t it?

    Konsa  Bednarek. Mings

Bailey                            Young

        McGinn  Luiz

              Ramsey

       Ings      Watkins



I am guessing anyway

Why not play Chambers then who's been always excellent for us. And then it means either Bailey wing back or konsa right back. What the actual fuck

♫  You may say that I’m a dreamer, but I’m not.. ♫

This is a chancer’s last stand. Five defenders at Fulham, I’m fuming. We don’t have the mobility to pull it off, but Fulham just might be shit enough to give us an opportunity to win.

Please take three points here Villa.

McGinn and Watkins start no matter what, re the midfield it looks like Sanson and Nakamba will never set foot on the pitch again for our club.
Title: Re: Fulham vs Aston Villa Match Thread
Post by: john2710 on October 20, 2022, 06:59:46 PM
I very much doubt it's 5 at the back. I seem to remember Konsa did quiet well defensively as a right back after the COVID break. Not sure about getting forward.

Post by: Astnor on October 20, 2022, 07:07:34 PM
Cash benched is right decision IMO. Our defence most often break down first at his area, our attacks most often break down/ stop  at his flank IMO. Upps our chanches tonight. Not anything against him but I ve seen him as a  weakness in our team for a too long time and I as I want the best for our team .. So he will come in as a sub  tonight then and change the game in our favour :)

Post by: brontebilly on October 20, 2022, 07:09:25 PM
I think Gerrard has reached what Eamon Dunphy called, somewhat ironically, the drunken gambler phase. Bednarek playing suggests to me he doesn't trust Mings to deal with Mitrovic. So instead of dealing with that he drops Cash. It's a fudge cake of a selection against mighty Fulham who conceded four at home to Newcastle recently.

I’m probably about 3 mins behind PWS on Radio 5, so you’ll know miles before I post anything!

Understood, when they try to make interdimensional time-travel a reality in the future, PWS's gaff will be their first port of call.

Our attack...  Bailey.  What is he?   Not a winger - doesn't ever beat his man out wide.  Ings.  What is he?  Not a target man (weak) and not a killer (misses too many).  At least with Watkins you know what he is - a willing runner who always keeps going.

He's the most centre back of centre back's you can imagine. He offers nothing going forward from right back and that's because... He's a centre back.

Why the fuck did he drop Cash and put Konsa right back? In what world was that ever going to be the thing that would turn things around?

Cash not fully fit apparently, hamstring twinge or something.

If it was that bad he wouldn’t have been on the bench and he certainly shouldn’t be playing. The truth is Gerrard is a fucking charlatan. Tonight he picked a formation out of thin air and stuck a bunch of players into. Kept faith with the same players who have consistently failed this season. He is utterly fucking useless

I have to disagree with those that say that was a penalty.  If it was then I'm taking my ball home.  Also, that was ball to hand X 1,000,000.  However. I think that's Gerrard gone and this has been a performance that makes me think it is time X 1,000,000.

I said in the first half that this had shades of Smith's last game, and so it has proved. The archetypal manager's last game where everything just unravels.

This is not the 2015 rabble. These honestly are good players who have not been coached or set up or prepared properly. Triangles, one-twos, patterns of play, organised pressing, competence at set pieces ... none of it is there.

McGinn-2 how does he get in starting line up? Not a captain
