Beigl 1,387 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Hazard isn´t a false 9. I hope Morata comes back as fast as possible. The false 9 system may work against Huddersfield or Bournemouth, but against big teams it will be most probably useless, because we won´t get much of the ball.

He isn't a false 9 you are correct, but he's been made to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Juan 28,141 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I can't see us having any problems tonight, even though we don't have an out and out striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,918 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 All 3 points today would be so very nice. I think if we and United both win today we will have all but locked ourselves into a top 4 finish. We'd be 11 points ahead of Arse and 8 ahead of Spuds. Can't see us choking away a gap of that size. Things that will probably make things very difficult tonight are that Bournemouth have had ages to rest and prepare for this (10 days I think I read?) and that if Hazard as a false 9 isn't working we have very few options to change it. I think the feel good factor will be huge with a win tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,918 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Hmm. Not a bad XI but I'm not sure I want to see Ross as a wide attacking player. Hopefully it's just because it's an emergency situation because I want him to play in midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAM09 7,056 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Pleased to see Zappacosta retain his place. Forced to a play a false 9 tonight, but I hope we don't see it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,918 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Looks like Bournemouth have plenty of pace in their attack so we've got to hope Cahill keeps calm and that Baka is in the solid form he has been. Their legs are way fresher than our will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
