  1. Tamundo has this guy done every time, but he can't do anything with that left foot.
  2. I did not use 'Tamundo' first! I think it was @Bill?
  3. Just a variation that was used when he first signed, as no one could spell his name properly. It's so bad it's good.
  4. Yes. You can make as many changes as you want until the kick-off deadline. I had Danilo too.
  5. I'd like to see Lammers play up front.
  6. I keep saying 4-3-1-2, but the front three switch mid-game, from 1-2, to 2-1 (two #10s), to a flat 3.
  7. I'm changing my FGS to Tamundo...
  8. Maybe Tamundo is the #10 - the Kent replacement? Useless but really quick?
  9. Yfeko at LB, maybe? Sterling has played as a WB and RM, so it could be a back-three, but there's no one to play LWB, so I doubt it's a back-three.
  10. I don't think so: we were just really bad as we had a glorified Championship side.
  11. It's actually a variation of the 4-4-2 diamond or 4-2-2-2. You often find sides that play the 4-2-2-2, play a back-three variation - Leipzig, for example - the principles are the same. Love it. I think it's our principles of play that lets us down, though, rather than our formation.
  12. Tamundo - Running gag - OK. Tav - short for Tavernier, fine. Shifu (after the Kung-Fu Panda character) and a variation of Cifu - trying to spread it myself - fine. BUT McRORIE IS NOT HIS NAME! It's McCrorie. McCrorie!
  13. There's no doubt Fullback is the next key area to be revamped.
  14. I heard some naughty words from the terraces while watching Club Brugge and Shakhtar Donetsk (shut up - I watch them!). Someone should inform Gianni Infantino. For the good of the game. We don't need these teams in European football for the next two seasons ... or whenever the Club World Cup starts.
  15. Everything says Liverpool signing but the age (30).
  16. What are we expecting from this one? Who comes in? Who's rested?
  17. Rangers 3 - 0 Morton FGS Danilo
  18. I mean, xG does describe players, teams and matches quite accurately over the season, so whether you buy into it or not is irrelevant - it works. xG does take into account game context - off the top of my head, it takes into account 35 contextual variables. For xG to be meaningful, it has to describe all-comers, to use your term. Then you can compare how players and teams are performing to the statistical average.
  19. Get a room, lads. Bring back a more contentious debate, like xG.
  20. I thought the willingness of our #8s (Raskin and Shifu) to press wide last night was really good. It is necessary in a narrow formation, but we've not really seen it. Our press in general has been pretty poor. I do think that energetic role suits Raskin more, rather than keeping him deep.
