Im really looking forward to this now.

Im fascinated to see who he picks and doesnt.

Will he make big changes or chance that the muppets from last night will suddenly spring to life.

Personally i think we did look better in the first half last night with luiz as CDM. IF FIT, i would go with him and Torreira, saka alongside.

Ozil behind auba and laca.

Back four - kt, sokratis, holding and chambers.

Id like to see our two dms be more defensive. Keep it tighter.

Yeah puts a different perspective on things suddenly doesn't it. Norwich this weekend and then Brighton at the bowl on the Thursday.

Absolutetly want to see DMs being defensive and overall a far more disciplined approach as a team to not overcommitting players forward although I have my concerns whether some of them can do it but I guess we'll find out.

No reflection on Freddie but i still don't expect much from this game, even with the 'bounce', a couple of days is nothing and even though he's been around the squad all season as assistant he knows things need to change and that'll take time. Solid performance would be nice even losing if you see some structure it would be a start.

GL Freddie you're going to need it with this lot and those above you

Now, COYG lets smash them :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf:

This is a Rare, rare thing. It's usually other teams that change their manager just before playing us and it is they who get the "Bounce", I wonder if we will experience a "Bounce"???

I fuckkin hope so.


We Love You Freddie Cos You've Got No Hair
You're only Temporary
But We Don't Care
Cos We Love you Fredddddddieeee!

Good luck Freddie. I'll be back to cheer you on in the meaningful match in Liege on the 12th. Shame you've got to go through some of this meaningless shit first. Nice audition though I suppose

Freddie has to be his own man from here on till whenever...so It will be interesting to see what his First Team line-up looks like.


Luis is out with rib damage I think...and hopefully no xhakacunt, mustafi or sokratis.

Fanciful nonsense from the sun newspaper, but I would be more than ok with most of that selection if I'm honest. Swap torreira for burton, and laca for Willock (swap laca and auba positionally though), and I would be happy with that. I would definitely be on board with the backline - chambers is not and never will be a full back, but he was doing well at centre back earlier in the season and sokratis has been a total car crash this season

Certainly hope not! Dropping Aubameyang and playing Ozil right mid?
Will be interesting to see what Freddie goes with formation wise and which personnel he chooses

Must be a nice feeling for some of our 'fans' on here to start cheering for their own team again. Wonder how many defeats it will take under Freddie for that to change.....
