    If that is the line up it is stupid. You don't win games against diddy teams by crowding an already overcrowded half of the field.

    We lacked width in Gibraltar as their entire team was camped on the edge of the box. Throwing every * and their granny up top isn't the answer, nor is playing 2 full backs as centre halves.

    Screw that! If we can't get money for Rogic and Bitton, that's terrible mismanagement from our board.

    Plus that formation would completely contradict what Rogers was saying about patience!

    I'll be quite surprised if that's the lineup.

    That will give us width though, and in the right place rather than the last 10 yards of the park where we ended up stuck with nowhere to go in the 1st leg.

    Also rather than having 4 people in and around the edge of the box we will now have the two strikers and one of the midfielders tanking on with the other wide man at the back stick. Think it will be less crowded than we might think. Totally get where you're coming from though.

    I agree with what Paul is saying to an extent
    On the flip side, if we get lots of bodies into the box and get crosses in, it could cause havoc.

    If we've told them to find new clubs, we'll be in a very weak negotiating position (which we already are anyway due to their contracts). We could easily end up getting less than a million each, which is shocking given their talent, age and potential sell-on value.

    This. Some people seem to think that removing a defender automatically makes us more attacking.

    Completely forgetting the width and attacking threat Tierney brings.

    Look at how Belgium struggle with nobody overlapping Hazard/De Bruyne. Makes it so much easier for them to be marked.

    If he is playing hopefully he plays well, he hasnt really done that bad in Euope for us, was one of our best players last year and has made decent impacts in big games before Karagandy, Ajax, Spartak Moscow.

    One of our most experienced players in Europe too, if he plays it will be his 45th European game for us a lot considering the amount of injuries he's had.

    A nice early goal and it will be plain sailing.

    Surely that's mismanagement on the managerial side rather than the board? The board won't be deciding who Brendan wants to keep
