The dawn of a new era. Or at least we blinmmin' hope so.
He had to walk; poor old Nige finally got put out of his misery, despite pretending that the birds were still singing and the sun shining.
But he always knew walking was brilliant.
It's all yours now, Jacko. Your big chance that you've been waiting for.
And we're right behind you!
Sunderland has a few issues too ... their injuries are starting to stack up, plus they've got a further couple of doubts today.
Our line up? Anyone's guess.
PS: Don't forget pre-match with Scotty, Curbs and Steve Brown at 2.15, Charlton TV.

That line up looks alright... Dobson straight back into the team!!10

I like that team and formation. We will see.1
-
4-4-2?0

Much happier with that team. Solid back four. Legs in midfield and Washington in the side next to Stockley.3
-
And it looks like a change of formation ..... 4-4-2?

Arter injured?0

If everyone puts the effort in and don't decide to go missing, I can see that as our regular lineup.
The wide players will need to work hard defensively.2 -
Decent team tbf2

What formation do Sunderland play?billysboots said:Doesn’t look like 442 to me 433 or 4231 ?
CurbsJacko might plan to match them up?

I've wanted Washington and Stockley up top for weeks.
Not surprised to see us revert to the tried and tested Purrington/Matthews full back combo, too.
I hope the four in midfield start out ad one winger and three keeping it mostly tight - Curbs style.

Let's defy the odds and get a win1 -
Tydeman injured?17

4-4-2
Washington right of midfield 4 I guess and switching with Lee1 -
Yeah, believe so. Not sure when he's ready to return, after missing the last 40 years.captainbob said:Tydeman injured?

Slightly damp in France at the mo..
Looking forward to Jacko's first match in the hot seat incl an "exclusive" interview , also catching up with Shaun Bartlett in South Africa, with Brownie in the studio should be a good game with the usual pre match banter...COYR let's get a good result..

Surely Leko right mid? Wash up front with The Captain?supaclive said:4-4-2

Not sure how that side will line up
To me it's still too attacking, as while Washington will work hard, we've still got 4 attacking players - Stockley, Washington, Lee and Leko - which to me is one too many for a tough away game4 -
Either that or Jackson for the time being at the very least has stuck with the same sort of formation we've been seeing of lateEveshamAddick said:

MacGillivray
Matthews - Lavelle - Famewo - Purrington
Dobson - Gilbey
Lee
Leko - Stockley - Washington
Would make sense to leave things alone for now with the only change the players themselves.
Two days isnt enough to start a whole revolutionary new style of play.0 - Sponsored links:

Yes, I can't see Washington starting in a position he has never started a game for us in.EveshamAddick said:

No change 4231 .. which is disappointing was hoping to see JJ stamp his mark on itOggy Red said:And it looks like a change of formation ..... 4-4-2?
Washington Leko wide Stockley up top on his own .. Dobson holding mid .. with Gilbey and Lee pushing on0 -
Washington recalled is a good start by JJ
C'mon Charlton5 -

I've always thought that if we get the midfield sorted, then the defence gets protection and the front man doesn't get isolated.
I'm hoping that the first issue addressed is to make our midfield more compact and competitive.
And close down the acres of space that we've presented to opponents in the middle of the park.
Plus give the fullbacks the protection needed.
Looking better hopefully with a front 2 ..... IMO to be consistently effective, strikers need to work in tandem.

No statement from the club either. It's poor all-round.Oggy Red said:

Feels like a 4-3-3 off the ball to me, though I expect on the ball we have the ability to be more fluid. Would love to see Lee, Leko, Washington and Stockley (to some extent) interchange positions when we are.0

Glad to see Dobson back in. COYR1

Scottie's borrowed our Henry's cardie again.
