Great pressing that.

4-4-2 is the way to go.

As long as all four midfielders are in the middle.

As a diamond yes but when Gabby is back he could play on the left of a 4 in mid and Tonev could play right.

I would sooner have 2 genuine wide players though!

They are.

In a 4-4-2 I would sooner have Gabby running the channels as a striker and have wide options better than Tonev

We don't have better options than Tonev on the right of a 4 man midfield at the moment.

Indeed.

Overall I've been much more impressed by Baker. Both are good though, and useful members of the team. I think Baker is stronger and less prone to error though. Not much in it, mind.

I'd say Clark is much much better technically and positionally.

Heard Roy Keane has turned up to watch ... Richard Dunne?

[Lamb_Stockmix]

Benteke - born offside.

[ozzjim]

Lovely pass from Westwood into Kozac then. Need more of that from him.

[Summers]

Punt it long, my lord, punt it long..

[PaulWinch again]

Yep we need Westwood to start making telling contributions.

[Summers]

Tonev has fantastic crossing accuracy.. straight to the keeper every time.

Heard Roy Keane has turned up to watch ... Richard Dunne?

He's here to stamp out any anti-MON sentiment.

[Lamb_Stockmix]

I think we've gone 3-5-2

[aj2k77]

El Ahamadi needs to press the ball faster, he ambles up to his man.

Tonev has fantastic crossing accuracy.. straight to the keeper every time.

Frustrating, that.

Did well to get himself past the defender and into a position where he could cross, then spunked it straight at the keeper.

[JUAN PABLO]

stream is better -   

saw the ball go wide just from benteke I think but it stopped

[eastie]

Seems to have gone off the boil this game after an exciting start .
