Big test at brentford next, not won there for many years and long time since we beat a London team, big test.
Need to make changes, not working presently, so no real risk.
Not sure if Poveda injured, wasn't in squad, does beilsa not rate him either?
Poor transfer window is hurting us again, needed a CB, should have tried for Ayala or Hector, he has stopped the rot at Fulham and looks commanding.
Would you stick with same team and system or change, what team would u pick.
Mine be as follows-
Meslier
Ailing white cooper Dallas
Philips
Poveda shacks Harrison
Bamford Augustin

If Poveda injured then Pablo.

I'd like to change the system a little more, trying to dominate midfield as well as having two up top, with the following team:

Meslier
Ayling Coops White
Phillips
Poveda Shacks Klich Harrison
Bambam Augustin

Reckon that would give the Bees something to think about - won't happen of course, but I can dream.

Attacking four of Costa and Harrison on flanks, Bam Bam in middle and Augustin up front.
Then have Shacks or another defensive mid fielder sitting as a two in front of back four .

Bring on Alioski, Klich and Pablo later in the game if players get tired

We are too gung ho away from home against the better teams.
Lets not give anything away, keep it tight, keep the ball when we can.

Think it’s 1950 we last won there? Not that that comes from memory!
System won’t change, I think we can all be sure of That!
Also think 3 at the back would be overrun, without wingbacks dropping in, but do agree that faces need to change. Meslier in as a must. Dallas in as left wingback now that Kal has returned. Would love to see what 1970 suggests in terms of Augustin and bam, with bam effectively replacing Klich for the first 60 mins.
Poveda back on the bench, as Costa is showing he can beat his man, but we need more bodies in the box to convert.

3:0 to the bees for me. We just don’t have the steel or firepower. Hope I’m proved wrong but I can see this being the mother of all collapses.

We need to score the first goal to open up their defense a little.

Totally agree Opti but we have a nasty habit of gifting the first then we are struggling to draw let alone gain 3 points. Made even worse if the other team decide to sit back and defend the lead.
