It's mad to say I dunno how we fit Le Fee in a modified 3 as he's probably our best overall midfielder. But I'm liking what I see of him on the left at the minute

Two assists for Neil today imo

 

[Julio Mackemo]

Pleased with Samed and Le Fee playing. Two top notch midfielders.

 

[jimb]

Not sure by this , I'd have expected 2 up front for this as these as they'll have 11 men behind the ball at all times.

He is on paper but I’ll need to see him play more, he looks mint tho

We’ve lacked a threat from the left since Watson was injured

Great problems to have

The thing I like about our manger tho is he’s stubborn and does it his way and he will have in mind who is best XI is

But yeah he’s been good on left you can tell he’s just quality

 

[Smiler]

Agree to disagree but he’s been brilliant all season and for me he’s the best in the league at where he has been playing

I still think he might play there this game meself

I get a feeling Neil will the deepest player still, can't remember the game but when Samed came on recently he played further up than Neil although that was late in the game and we were tightening things up

Samed will run the show here. Champions League midfielder playing against Plymouth.

Got 4-0 written all over this

Add in a goal for good measure. He's generally shite from shooting outside the box but then he belted that one in against Swansea

18-3 it is then

 

[PTR]

3 really good options on the bench

 

[Old Prestonian]

Somewhat surprised to see Mayenda benched.

 

[SunderLad92]

Thought we'd go for it against bottom of the league with 2 up top. Harsh on Meyenda mind.

Puts some lovely through balls in recently and with more time and space…

 

[Barista]

Not sure about Samed starting

All I can think of is that he wants him on so we get control of the game from the beginning, get a comfortable lead, and then bring him off for Rigg after 60 mins. Let’s hope Plymouth have got with the program and comply with this.

 

[Grimes]

1-0, Isidor 88th minute

 

[Zookeeper]

Harsh from one perspective, another is imagine being a full back and he comes on at 50 minutes

Love him me, proper exciting baller.

This. Mayenda is real handful when he comes on against tired legs.

This yeah

Neil would be mint further forward as he’s a good footballer but it’s just become an easy line that it’s not his best position, and it doesn’t reflect how he’s played

I like that he's starting iv thought bris has been stubborn at times and reluctant to change but fair play

 

[The Great Soprendo]

The thing I like about our manger tho is he’s stubborn and does it his way and he will have in mind who is best XI is

Not sure about this...IMO he has shown he is willing to change both line up and formation to suit an individual game, and appreciates it's a squad game. And he generally gets it right too.

Means nothing, plenty of shit players have played Champions League football. Hopefully he proves to be the signing we were hoping he would be though
