I know it's a way off but it's where my thoughts lie now. I think 4231 could work -
Sa
Semedo Neves Kilman RAN
Traore Nunes
Neto Podence Guedes
Costa

If Lage is still here he needs to make some big decisions. Moutinho is just too slow now and and Traore looked pretty good in his cameo today. I'd definitely stick Neves beside Kilman whilst Collins is out. And if Costa is only 75% fit I'd still stick him in and tell him to play like Haarland - prowl around the box and take your chances when they come. This game becomes really massive now. Lose with Chelsea up then we really are potentially in trouble. Win, and with the quality in the side you can see a chance that we will move up the table.

I'd probably opt for a 5 3 2 formation and hope we can somehow get a nil nil.

If I do a dozen of these non will have Neves start at cb (even though he did really well there today) and I struggle to justify the idea of Neto or Guedes starting.

If Lage is still here it wont matter a jot who we pick, in my opinion.
This for me as well. I dont see us winning a game until November, maybe even December so long as the clueless git is still at the club..

You mean to say that you don’t fancy Neves against Antonio or that massive Italian bloke they have? Imagine that!!!

But yea, can’t see it making much difference what team we pick at the moment.

Can't see Raul being fit Costa to get q cameo, traore showed a lot for me.

It was inevitable a loss against city, we played better in the second half

Absolutely criminal that we didn’t sign another centre half. One suspension and our options are:

- Move Kilman over to bring Toti in, who’s never played at this level in a 4
- Bring Mosquera in, who’s never played at this level
- Play Ruben ****ing Neves there

I would probably go:

Sa
Semedo - Kilman - Toti - Jonny
Neves
Traore - Nunes
Adama - Guedes - Neto​

Are we picking the team we'd like see or the one likely to be fielded?
If it's the later I'd expect
Sa
Semedo, Jonny, Kilman, RAN
Nunes, Neves, Moutinho
Guedes, Podence, Neto

It really doesn't matter who is on the bench as they're unlikely to be used until the 84th minute, unless there's an injury in which case Hwang will come on.

The only way we will start scoring goals imo is to have an extra proper attacking player. Has to be 442 or 4231.
We all rave about the quality of Neves and Nunes , they ought to be able to hold the midfield in a two.

Traore isnt a DMF, he looked good yesterday and at least made some good forward passes
Toti has done little wrong when hes played so just play him alongside Kilman with Kilman on the right side
Play Neto on his correct side ffs just swap him with Guedes on the right or Pod
Doubt Costa can play from the start so hope Raul is fit enough to start
Bring Adama on with Costa on the hour if fit
Just stop playing Mouts plz bring him on later if needed
Semedo must start with Jonny on the left for me again RAN can come on later

To be honest, it’s got to the stage where I don’t really care what the team is as Lage won’t be able to get a performance out of them.

It's funny looking through this, all the different players selected and all the different formations. We all have different ideas and views and I'm not too sure what this shows tbh. Perhaps a club in flux or a club going through bad times but it shows at the moment there is no clear answer until we can find someone to stick the ball in the net.

I'm sick to death of seeing Jonny stumble around like an old bloke.
Sick to death of watching Moutinho bring absolutely nothing to the team.
I'm sick of watching Neto running down blind alleys with his head in the grass.

Would love Coady back right now, bit of fire and a good defender.

Hardly matters as there's plenty of time to prepare the excuses. Not enough games, too many games, injuries, suspensions, you name it, we've got an excuse.

What's funnier is that Bruno will send out exactly the same formation as he does every week, with the bare minimum of changes to shoe horn what's needed into any gaps. Neves at CH is more than possible.

I'm no apologist for Lage, who I feel is perhaps out of his depth at Prem level, but any manager (bar Pep!) would struggle with no striker at his disposal. If, and a big 'if' but if we'd had a fit Costa at the start of the season I do think we'd be several points better off now.
