Surprised by this. Can't see why we need this formation in this game.

If I was Hause I'd be well pissed off that Tuanzebe is ahead of me.

Let's see what happens.

It's like he's trying to turn me against him.

He did mention you in his presser, he also said "Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps" was his favourite TV show.

Tuanzebe instead of Hause again? 3-1 Arsenal

Underwhelmed. Please prove me wrong boys.

Bit underwhelmed too but glad Bailey isn't starting. If it's not going to plan take off Watkins or Ings off and put Leon on.
So 85th minute then?

He seems to be trying to shoe-horn both Ings and Watkins into the side.

Apparently he has to keep watching "Two Pints" because Ole Gunnar Solsjkaer has lent him the DVD.

Very disappointing selection. Effectively a 5212 really. Deano doubling down on this set up. Our bench looks strong and he'll be calling on them early I fear.

Yep, that’s the biggest issue for me too. Mr Sloppy not impressing so far and not even our player so what’s the point?

We could still do that with a 433, Liverpool play like this with their three strikers.

So we’ve gone from playing 4-3-3 every game last season to 3-5-2 this season? Yet we’ve been conceding more goals and having Targett and Cash as our width rather than two attacking players. I do no get this at all. I had hoped that we’d be a bit more varied now with the players we have but that isn’t looking to be the case at all.
