    seen that yesterday and noted it
    that is 1 each of the top 4 refs for the whole season

    below is a list of the teams and how many games they have had, what I would call the more 'Experienced ref' referee their games after 26/27 games

    Liverpool 12
    Leicester 11
    Man Utd 16
    Everton 11
    Chelsea 8
    Tottenham 6
    Southampton 9
    Man City 14
    Aston Villa 8
    West Ham 8
    Wolves 11
    Newcastle 4
    Crystal Palace 10
    Leeds 12
    Arsenal 12
    Burnley 11
    Brighton 8
    Fulham 9
    West Brom 13
    Sheff Utd 10

    considering we had our first on Boxing day
    we are still way short of the rotation you would expect
    Spurs are becoming a close second

    We’ve got this. And its actually at a time when I can watch it as well.

    Bound to be an outstanding display of open attacking football, most likely by them, but we will hold out for a 1-0, the winner coming off Joelinton’s arse in the 95th minute .

    One thing BS is good at is doing his homework on where to hurt the other team. Concerned he'll have a field day with the amount on injury problems we've currently gott

    Cant see is changing “style” of play again. Hayden has called for consistency so I think it will be the same set up with players shuffled about.

    Left sided forward presumably goes to Fraser with Joe right, Willock shifted to the “false 9”, then probably Hendrick back in alongside Shelvey (though I’d prefer either or even both Longstaffs). Hayden retains his slot and either Manq or Krapth at RB, Dummett should definitely play LB then Lascelles/Fede and Clark. Dubs in nets.

    It’s still not a terrible side. Willock has a goal in him. The worry is mobility in the middle but that’s nowt new.

    Personally I still think 4231 suits the squad. Murphy could go right, Willock no10 and Fraser or Joe left with Carroll up top. 4231 is an easier system to swap players in and out of but we won’t use that system til the managers gone.

    Agree, at least 4231 gives us an orthodox striker
