It's in the stars.

We get battered by City and Lingard stars for Forest.

I still wished we had signed him.

What I have heard from Gonzo video, that Moyes want to play 3 at the back with 2 wing backs so if that the case against a strong Man City side to stop them attacking us then the formation would be 5-4-1 in defence side to 5-2-3 in offensive side

Areola

Dawson
Zouma
Ogbonna or Cresswell
Coufal- RWB
Johnson - LWB

Rice
Soucek
Bowen in RW
Fornals - LW

Antonio

but with Aguerd out, Moyes may turn to 4-2-1-as previously stated in my earlier post.

If we play a 4-2-1 Ibbs, we’re dooooooomed 😂. Not so sure Oggy is match fit yet to start either. Moyes might have to put himself in the lineup to get 5 at the back

Does a 4-2-1 line up count the goalie as well? We're definitely fucked either way.
I predicted a win but was hoping for a full 11 on the turf.
Turf that is Oz not the other grass. :D
Just like my dreams they fade and die.
But on the positive side..............

I feel more confident if 5-4-1 in defending to 5-2-3 in attacking style of the game than 4-2-3-1 as this 4-2-3-1 is started to dry up a bit. We need to perform better than our last 3 pre-season with all first team players playing with Aguerd the only absentee.

Won't get battered.
We will grind out a 2 - 0 defeat with a 10 man defence performance.
Moyes getting ready for the first REAL season in the last 3 years.

All those formations are much more favourable than the 4-2-1 you mentioned :lol:
