4 tall centre backs and a tall left back.

Tony Pulis’ dream defence.

Can anyone tell me where I can watch this game?

Sorry, Bob. I'm listening on talkSPORT2

I’m watching on Sky at a local pub so that’s all I can think of BBB.

Not impressed with that first half. Phillips and Gibbs are being exposed out-wide and our three centre backs are being dragged out of position by their strikers. For me I’d change to a back four of Adarbioyo, Hegazi, Bartley and Gibbs, Brunt in front, Phillips, Livermore, Barnes and Rodriguez as a four and then Gayle up top. That out of possession and then in possession Barnes drift to the left wing to find space with Rodriguez moving close to Gayle.

I’m watching a stream on VIP box, select the link but be careful as pop-up screens open so just go back to the first link screen and never be tempted to update your flash player or anything like that. To close the boxes hiding the play screen, search for tiny somewhat hidden X’s and close them. It may still put up another screen but if it’s not the footy, go back to first link screen and close others. NEVER BE TEMPTED TO DOWNLOAD ANY UPDATES OR ANYTHING and eventually you will be able to watch the game.

Hope this helps Bob

Very much same as the Forest game that I watched. Rodriguez, Gibbs, Brunt all very poor. Passing going astray left, right and centre under no pressure.

Defence look clueless, keep showing players into shooting positions rather than actually focusing on the man on the ball. When they do focus on the man on the ball, there's no communication, everyone going for the same ball.

Phillips, Barnes and Gayle lively, but not showing any real quality yet.

As critical as I've been of him in the past, Livermore is the stand out performer again and the 1 player willing to put a proper tackle in. Really needs someone next to him with some legs though. Brunt has been a great servant, but he's gone now.

On the footy, we need to improve drastically as we should be losing by a couple. Too many long balls and misplaced passes.
