It will be VERY interesting to see if Brendan starts to develop a new role for Stevie


Do what City did with Lampard in regards to Stevie. After watching that West Ham match though, our back line is just pitiful. Nothing new, I know, but it was painful to watch. We dont hold a line at all and its like everybody is expecting someone to take the ball, but nobody actually gets on the ball. They show up late to the ball in multiples, leaving the opposition plenty of open lanes for runs. Then we do not sustain any attack or control the ball in the front 3rd. We have our possession, but we do not sustain and continuously chip away at the defense. I feel like we have tons of talent but none of them have gained any chemistry, which is confusing and frustrating because we have had a few matches now. Moreno pressing though was the one bright spot.

So no Hendo vs. Middles as he's nursing a hip injury.

Allen is out.

Cou is having a groin issue.

So I guess with Everton coming up, we'll have to play Suso or someone in the middle? I just can't imagine us playing Gerrard gain and then expecting him to come back this weekend.

Also, a couple of notes from things BR has said this week -

1. We played more long balls than West Ham. He seemed really disappointed in this

2. Our pressing patterns are off - he says he will try to figure out player's strengths and also keep to one system while the injured remain out. Somewhere Lucas said "what, me?"

At least he's figuring out some issues and working on them.....Lambert supposed to get his first start - I have to hope for something like this -

---------------Migs or Jones (don't care)

Manquillo--Toure--Sakho----Enrique

--------Suso-------Lucas-----

------------Lallana

Borini------Lambert------Markovic

Maybe Rossiter starts or comes on - we need to see how close he is to competing. At this point, we may need him to play some minutes this season.
