Watching a Spanish stream and they just advertised some dudes named Carlos Bacca and Aritz Aduriz alongside Bale and Griezmann. That's like the Premiership advertising Wilfried Bony and Jay Rodriguez

Carlos Bacca is good.

We need to hire a new attacking coach to help with the creativity of the side

It's going to happen, isn't it? Nolan and Cole are going to play the full 90 minutes while Noble and Zarate sit on the bench. Sam is doing this out of pure spite now.

talented players will only try to pass forwards or dribble or shoot or something, and you're only going to lose possession that way

I think it's Allardyce making a point about sticking with what he knows rather than changing his style. Like his insistence on playing Joey O' Brien rather than literally anyone else

Casillas; Arbeloa, Pepe, Ramos, Nacho; Carvajal, Illarramendi, Xabi Alonso, Modric; Bale and Isco


De Gea; Keane, Jones, Evans; Valencia, Herrera, Fletcher, Young; Mata; Rooney, Welbeck.

On the bench


e: Also that's a real strange line-up with 5 defenders. Either Ancelotti is gonna do a Guardiola and move Carvajal to the midfield or try a 5-3-2
