DH1988 1,348 Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 With Ben’s recent interview about being a LW, I would be surprised if we move from the 3 x CB. I feel as though we’re in a similar position as Conte at Chelsea but in reverse of course, we need to go back to the preseason formation, I was so excited watching that playstyle, it was quality.

MoroccanBlue 5,382 Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 Anyone else just not seeing any signs of optimism for the rest of 2023? Poch evidently got rattled after Nkunku's injury, and has thrown away everything he built on in preseason. He's following in his predecessors footsteps in always fielding more than 4 defenders (even against relegation clubs and at home) and the team now shows the same disjointed attacking play we saw under Potter. We are failing to beat sides in what is our easy fixture schedule, and yet we still have Spurs, Arsenal, Brighton, United, City, and Newcastle waiting for us in November/December. Truth be told I'm already fearing the worse and a defeat here will cement that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only see two sources of optimism: 1. The underlying stats suggest we are much better than results so far, over time our average results should start to line up with them 2. Poch has transformed Sterling back into the player we bought, and all of the players are publicly singing his praises - maybe, given time, he will bring a lot of these players to peak form There are however many many points for pessimism and this season could become incredibly frustrating. I have the sad feeling that Poch will put out an unaltered lineup. Edited September 11, 2023 by Mhsc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he would be pretty good on the left wing playing in Chilwell's spot tbh. That said from our currently fit options, who would you play ahead of Palmer in CAM? Enzo, or Gallagher?
