This line up is screaming backs to the wall for last 30 minutes after going 2 or 3 goals up. Wilson, Bowen and Taty will tire by 60 minutes and our attacks will fizzle out. There’s no one to replace and of them. Unless Adama has enough to offer which is yet to be seen in a claret and blue shirt. Personally I would have played either Taty or Wilson so one of them is fresh for the second half. 

[Vexed]

is it really a game to throw Hermansen into ?

 

 

Nuno dont want to win does he? Shocking team selection. 

[threesixty]

I never know what to think with these changes?
I dont understand the GK change at all (has Areola got a knock?)
Starting a defender who hasn't played at all in ages?

2 out and out forwards looks good though.
Maybe the idea with the GK is to keep possession more, play out from the back etc. And with two strikers he wants to kill burnley early doors.
Fingers crossed!
 

[stubbo]

Just have to remember Leicester raved about Hermansen when we signed him, and those early games were under the idiot Potter (and he was coming back from significant injury).

He claims the ball better in the air from open play than Areola, and is calmer with the ball. Let's hope with that plus two aerial defenders in Mavro and Disasi he is able to bring that to the side today.

[Jaan Kenbrovin]

Can’t see us winning this.

 

[SurfaceAgentX2Zero]

Hermandsen played well against QPR

[Jasnik]

Just hope he can catch a ball and not just punch.
but not seen it him either.though

[Ron Eff]

Utterly bizarre again, bringing Hermansen in. Areola isn’t perfect but is guaranteed to make a worldy a game. 

[Mex Martillo]

Why the fuck is the t rex in goal

 

 

Yes, blooming worrying.
Areola has been good, despite all the goals going in.
Hermansen was toilet in the summer.

[Massive Attack]

Liking the attack side of things (assume Taty behind Wilson?), Midfield as good as it can be right now, defence makes me nervous. I didn't agree with Scarles being dropped last game for the headless chicken in defence Diouf and still keeps the spot, new partnerships with Disasi chucked in at the deep end and suddenly drop Areola for Hermansen. Asking a lot for it all to gel straight away but the fact it's Burnley you'd hope it wouldn't prove costly. Get those goals and keep the pressure on until the players have to crawl off the pitch. 

[Lato]

Brave move to start Hemansen.......but he has kept a clean sheet this season! COYI

[Manuel]

You could see from Thursday's presser how frustrated Nuno was, so I'm not really surprised. The fear though is that this is all too late.

[Mad Dog]

Why the fuck is the t rex in goal

[twoleftfeet]

Big game for Mads, if he fucks up then Nuno might have to walk.

Positive line up though, give Wilson 60/65 minutes then bring Pablo on.

[zico]

Throwing Hermansen in for such a big game seems like the Wally with the Brolly throwing Scott Carson in against Croatia!

[pdcwhu]

Areola ?

[Takashi Miike]

fair play, he's kept the positive formation and wilson gets a start

[stubbo]

T-Rex...in

[Manuel]

Disasi starts, Wilson in for Pablo, apparently.

[Steady]

I expect us to win just to keep the agony going and the unrealistic hope we stay up. Leeds, Forest and Wolves were must wins, but this is THE must win, anything less than 3 points and it’s over

[Manuel]

Great opportunity to claw back our horrific goal difference 

0-5 (Bowen x2, Taty, Summerville, Own Goal)

Good point about the goal difference.

Possibly, but law of averages would say it's unlikely 17th and 18th finish with the same points.

[Massive Attack]

Great opportunity to claw back our horrific goal difference 

0-5 (Bowen x2, Taty, Summerville, Own Goal)

Good point about the goal difference.

[boleyn8420]

Burnley haven't won a game in 16. Cue West Ham United

[Beef&Tomato]

We will be too good for them, Pablo to get his first goal in a 4-0 win,  great escape still on.  COYI
