It will have been 16 days since we saw what football at the top end of things could look like by Arsenal, who made us look second class citizens in footballing terms.
This game is unusual this season, in so far as the bookies have us down as favourites to win. Monday nigth, under the lights....but how empty will the bowl be. With a boycott planned, kids for a quid, general sale tickets up for cheap, and Nuno's first home game, the atmosphere and attendance is anyone's guess.
Injuries wise, our Big Fucking German is big fucking injured again...reducing the options up front to the two Callum's. Nuno chose to save ~86k in wages last time out, preferring the pace and mobility of Marshall over Wilson, and it will be interesting to see if he does the same thing here, or goes for a 'makeshift' centreforward. And of course Soucek is back.
Other than that, there are no fresh concerns reported going into the weekend.
Predicted Starting Lineup:Areola
Wan Bissaka Mavropanos Kilman Diouf
Magassa
Fernandes Soucek Paqueta Summerville
Bowen (c)
Subs: Hermansen, KWP, Igor, Potts, Guilherme, Marshall, Rodriguez, Wilson, Scarles
Predicted Score: 1-0 (Soucek)

Good start fired out the traps which is good to see. Miles better than how we used to dawdle along before. Keep it up..

Yeah course I did.
You're moaning about not playing a 33 year old crock, and a kid.
You're just angry about absolutely everything, I bet you have a meltdown when your boyfriend puts your shirts on the wrong spin cycle. You wally.
I don’t support managers that don’t start games with the best players available
We're 2nd bottom, you helmet, we do not have a plethora of 'best' players.
Our best players are Bowen, Summerville, Paqueta and hopefully Fernandes, although he hasn't done much yet.
Anything outside of those 4 is a big fucking shrug. Being an absolute fanny anne about it, like you're being, is pathetic.
you know nothing you queer cսnt
play a fucking striker and not 2 central midfielders that can’t run

WHO wisdom
Wilson - old, past it, shit and slow
Callum Marshall - slow, inexperienced, championship at best
Magassa - raw, not quick enough, passing poor
*Nuno spends 2 weeks with the squad, picks a team of the players who have impressed him*
"Why ain't the useless cսnt playing Wilson, Marshall and Magassa?"
We've got a shit squad, and a brand new manager, who has clearly picked a team of players who have been giving their all in training. We're not leaving out Bowen & Summerville for fuck sake.

Gary O'Neill just had an interesting observation about Kilman- said he had to work with him a lot about staying switched on and not looking to 'rest' (i.e. switch off) during games forcing him to be in positions where he needed to recover rather than be ready.
What a terrible quality for a CB to have.

Brentford do like a long throw & long ball so guess Soucek will help deal with that
Looking forward to the Soucek Henderson foot race

Sky MNF shock, horror barely mentioning the Boycott, one quick question shot at Nuno but that's it. Don't want to draw too much attention to your poxy Premier League product being sulleyed, eh...

Has JWP been kidnapped??
never seen anyone bombed out like that in my life (not that I’m complaining) but wow.
Strange team but as some have said, maybe about who was away on international duty and we have a game on Friday as well. So let’s trust in Nuno!

Sullivan should be strung up
for the third manager in a row, he’s employed another cսnt who can’t identify the best 11 players we have from a squad of absolute dog shit
England managers are retards for not being able to do it but at least they have to choose from a whole nation of talent, how hard is it to single out pace from the zombies we have at this club
FUCK OFF NUNO YOU THICK cսnt
he's picked the freshest 11 he possibly good with the players he's actually worked with over last couple of weeks, understand the logic
What like Soucek who played for the Czech Republic and got slated for being shit

Yeah I've got a must win game, let's dust off my fourth choice left back and my fucking sixth or seventh choice centre mid. To make sure we definitely lose the game let's waste our best player up top where he's is proven to be shit.
BRILLIANT NUNO, YOU'RE WELL ON THE WAY TO SOME MORE COMPO SON!
Dont see how we win with that lineup. Wanker.
Your'e the wanker if anyone is.

Soucek was away losing to the Faroes so not sure why he is in
Effected over 10 goals last season and already scored in this one in a Team that struggles to score bar boy wonder, Bowen. This should be obvious by now.

I'm mostly intrigued by it to see how we get on. In Nunos defence, he would argue he's still getting to know what everyone can do and if they have been impressing in Training then it can make more sense to him.

Hence the (?)
Has played u21 for France but still eligible for Mali as well
Soucek was away losing to the Faroes so not sure why he is in
Paqueta was away in S America so not sure why he is in (in a wrong position ) ahead of Wilson
Nuno putting his neck on the line here
3 changes at h/t?

Apart from Diouf, who are we leaving out of this team that everyone is so up in arms about?
AWB has been absolutely fucking dogshit for a while now, and KWP imo has been our best player so far this season. That's about the only other decision that could even be debated.
Who else do you idiots want in the team? JWP? Rodriguez? Irving has been the only central midfielder that's looked decent when he's started.
We have a shit squad, the over reaction to this team selection is pathetic..
Magassa and either Marshall or Wilson
