For Sunday I would change the formation to 4-3-3

Forster (GK)

Ajer (RB)
Jullien (CH)
Jozo (CH)
Taylor (LB)

Ntcham (CM)
Brown (CM)
McGregor (CM)

Elyounoussi (LW)
Eddy (CF)
Forrest (RW)

I would go back to the original 4-2-3-1 formation but with the same players ice man.
Ajar will play right back with one eye on Copenhagen away.
We have always played well at Pittodrie with the 4-2-3-1 and I don’t see why we should risk getting caught out down the wings with the 3-5-2.
If we need to change to 2 up top then we can bring off Elyounoussi and bring on Griffiths.

The great thing in our favour is the players available for selection but the way we played and the form we are in; I think NL will start with the same 11 as Wednesday and take the game to them.
If we need to switch, we have plenty of options now that most of the squad is fit and itching to be a part of this great run.

Why change the shape when we are winning games comfortably? Ajer is not a RB for me especially against decent opposition.

Not sure about switching it up think Eddie and Griff are starting to build a good partnership/ understanding and would like to keep it going also think the 2 of them are bringing the best out in ntcham we can always change it during the match if need be but would start off with the 3-5-2.

Change it? Why would we change it? We are skelping teams all over the park, scoring a barrel load and hardly losing a goal!
If it ain't broke don't fix it.

Exactly what I was going to say kev, changing a formation that works is daft. Stick to our guns and we'll put a few past them. 4-1.

I'm with Kev, we are on fire. Changing anything would be madness.

No point in changing it, in actual fact it puts them in a position to change their game to try and nullify us.
Their defence looked slow the other night, let’s get at them I say . I don’t think it will be an easy game by any means but we should be confident in getting the points .

The manager has hinted about changing it away from home in Europe. Sunday would be an ideal chance to play the team he has in mind for Thursday. It wouldn’t be fair on Ajar to throw him in at right back for the first time in months in Copenhagen. Why change the formation that has been successful against Aberdeen. They have not laid a glove on us for years and I don’t feel comfortable letting them come on to us at home with 3 at the back. Why risk it when we have a formation Aberdeen can’t deal with in the 4-2-3-1.

Playing away from home in Europe is a totally different prospect to playing Aberdeen away. We need to win every league game. We do that by going at their throat like we have been doing since the break.

why on earth would we change it? we're on the best run of form we've been on in years!

Is Bauer not in the Europa squad for the last 32 or injured or something? Would rather play him at RB over Ajer thought he had a decent game against Hearts.

Ice man we never play a 433 so why would you change it? 352 all day and of we have to shut up shop it's 4231👍.

I agree with the others. Many have spared Lenny in the past for his tactics failing and yet when we smash teams using a new formation people want to change it, madness. Buzz, if Aberdeen can't handle us playing a 4231 then what chance have they got with the 352 considering we're playing much better football.

You’ve made a good point Robdoc and hopefully your correct. 👍.

4-3-3 is a ridiculous suggestion, how would we win midfield battles?

Is that a genuine question Philtim. 3 central midfielders with two wide men who can drop back when defending. Do you not know how football works?

Ice Man what a silly response. Look what's happening to sevco just now, any team that floods midfield they are done. Yeah 4-3-3 really works.

And look what they did to us the last two times we’ve played against them with that formation philtim. You asked how would we win midfield battles. 4-3-3 and 4-2-3-1 are very similar formations. All it is, is the number 10 position dropping deeper into the midfield.
