Because we're mostly attacking, he won't change it even though the attacking is ineffective

It's the wrong formation for today and it shouldn't be taking this long to change it

Ings is a paseenger, the full backs crossing hasnt been good enough

Bang on, picking this formation because it 'worked' against Chelsea was fucking stupid.

Harsh on Targett, he's playing like a full back being asked to play as a wing back and all his positioning is slightly off as a result so he's crossing from places he's not used to, etc.

To me we look like a team with good players and plenty of potential but out of shape. For all the positives Smith can see this is about 150minutes without scoring and not creating much in open play whilst our most creative players are sat watching.

Yep, horses for courses. The system today doesn't just weaken us in attack but in defence, as their strategy is to break into the spaces the formation is clearly leaving to incorporate a third man at the back.

Still, at least we haven’t got Andros Townsend.

This is going to end 0-0 or 1-0 to them if he doesn’t make a change soon

It's been evident for ages so why so long for a change.
