[Fabio]

Not sure about any of those subs. At all.

Optimism Macca finds form. Kerkez works well with wirtz.

 

[FreshRed]

Hopefully Macca can do something positive. I really worry about his lack of pace when defending.

 

[Farkmaster]

Come on gakpo.

 

[binomial]

Maresca is available

Just realised wirtz has come off.

I've got no fucking clue then

 

[mom]

Why take Flo off?

 

[FreshRed]

Fine with Kerkez. The other two??

 

[Farkmaster]

I think wirtz isn't fully fit.

 

[darkstarexodus]

I've had four bouts of diarrhea but not one solid poo. That's a horrible conversion rate and won't cut it at this level.

Explosive performance.

 

[Modo]

Save us van Dijk

 

[localny]

Just not much adventure going on for us. Lacking that attacking fluency and the tender touches in tight spaces that we were known for under kloppo.

Teams would always park the bus. Not Surprising - but we would always have the trickery to find the way.

Not you that has no clue tbf. Moreso the manager.

 

[Modo]

Save us van Dijk

Almost

And Gakpo is shite. Feel like we've taken off 3 dynamic players for lesser versions.

Leeds subs will change the game though...

 

[darkstarexodus]

Save us van Dijk

Nearly.

 

[Farkmaster]

We are doing some very safety first things. We should be winning based on our chances and are willing to risk drawing for more safety. I'm tired of saying that this is the obvious way forward given how broken we were. We may of course lose though.

 

[Modo]

Chiesa to come on for 5 mins after they score

 

[FreshRed]

Chiesa to come on for 5 mins after they score

Who comes off though? Can’t be Frim.

 

[Farkmaster]

I think we should bring gakpo on.

 

[Modo]

Bradders

 

[localny]

One shot on target in the second half

 

[Fabio]

We're not very good

 

[Shay_K]

COME ON YOU RED MEN

 

[Farkmaster]

We're not very good

Yep, but we were what I've been spraying into the bowl, so my expectations have changed.

 

[KopRed]

Don't mind Ekitike trying, we have had nothing on goal.

 

[Modo]

Yay Chiesa coming on

 

[Modo]

So I guess they'll score from this throw in

 

[Shadey]

Maresca is available

Any better than ol slap head

 

[Halmeister]

I may be being unfair, but I feel like they play with fear and apprehension, and that, in my opinion, comes from the manager. There's no emotion, urgency or bravery, and you could see parallels in Slot.

 

[Farkmaster]

Now, can we press slightly more for a goal without completely losing any semblance of structure?
