3 points would be massive for us but I’m just keen for us to stop what is quickly becoming a rot. That said, anything less than a win puts pressure on the Watford game who also will probably still be without a win
I think we will go back to the eleven of the second half of last season, but I’m not sure that solves our problem in the middle. We vacate so much space in the middle of the pitch and it makes us very easy to defend against.
I’d be tempted to play Jota behind the two strikers as that is the only time I have felt we have looked like playing through teams. Playing with two central midfielders (Joao and Rúben) would force them to not sit so deep too and they don’t tend try to dominate possession in those areas either. Not sure that will be Nuno’s idea to start the game with though
