Oh do try and follow the conversation! I was replying to a poster who suggested playing 2 up front (presumably Murray and Locadia) with Solly and Izzy out wide. So, in those circumstances where would you play Gros? The answer is not ignoring the question and saying 'Go for 4-3-1-2!'
:facepalm:

Already covered......he ‘misunderstood’

Will that haircut there will be less drag and wind resistance, so you watch him gain a few yards of pace! He'll probably come out in a new clingy Lycra outfit too! Well it works for swimmers!

Easy one this. Murray to score hat trick with Southgate watching Vardy lose 3-0. Rest Murray till World Cup
Ulloa knocks 4 in against 'udds and books a seat to Russia whilst sealing our prem survival

Then give Locadia loads of game time until the end of the season with a 442 with Hemed for a laugh

I'll ask you this time, as the last respondent hasn't replied:-

A couple of good crosses, per game, isn't that exactly the player he was last season?

Last season he seemed more involved in games whereas this season he looks lost. As for 2 crosses per game, it's not really enough is it? I thought he made more last season but beer does cloud the memory sometimes.

Cannot understand for the life of me why a small group of fans behind me were moaning everytime Solly got the ball. They really had it in for him for some reason.

Ooh. I know the answer to this one.

It is because some of our fans are absolute wankers.

It was a genuine question, I'm happy to be very wrong, but I'm just not seeing anything different, beyond him always looks a foot taller each August.

To be he's always been on the edge of games, just doing enough to keep us excited, but not much more.

Thinking while writing, if he's 'just doing enough' but in a higher division I guess by my own metric he has improved.

:facepalm:

I answered it as I wouldnt play March and Izquierdo hence suggesting a 4-3-1-2 formation. I would play Izquierdo but definitely not March as I do not feel that he is bringing anything to the team this season. IMHO he needs an extended run in the U23s to get his confidence back and even possibly consider his future in May. Is he or will he ever be Premier quality, that is for CH to decide. for the club and Sollys benefit.

Murray up front isn't broken. Why on Earth would we try to fix it?

It's Jurgen vs Solly for a wing berth for me.

Not if we played Jurgen and Glenn as twin strikers with Gross tucked in behind.the only downside is we are reliant on Bong and Schellotto coping with Leicester's wide men with out help

So have you dropped Izquierdo?

Muzza... has to be... Jose and Solly (latter much better than BG realizes) on wings... Gross behind Muzza... Locadia back on bench...

Against Leicester is NOT the time to expose our beloved full-backs... Hudds, well, maybe...

Fully agree. Pundits were complimentary about March and Sunday Times gave him 7/10. Comments 'caused Shaw a few first half headaches-possibly hastening the starting left backs' exit - but found Young a tougher customer'

Needs to be Murray starting with Locadia on the bench BUT CH needs to be prepared to introduce JL sooner than the 'standard' 75/80 minutes - perhaps half time if GM has run his socks off and we are up !
