I know Ramsay and others have suggested that the current formation is not the issue, but with the signings of JJA and Muatapha (as well as SIJ departing) I wonder if there has been a change of heart as these 2 are surely more suited to a 4231 or something.
Very interesting to see how he sets them up at the weekend.

This might be the best back 4 given the donkeys that we have.
Cuzer, Derek, CIM, TomJoad

Sadly the only thing we've learned about Ramsay is that he's very confident in his own big idea. I can't see him changing his setup, no matter how often the donkeys at the back let him down. Hope I'm wrong - or of course that it all just gels and the players stop looking like they've never met.

Those two players seem well suited to playing in the 2 behind the striker in Ramsey's system.

If he wants give give his career every chance of success he will move to a back four. If he is happy to fail, stick with the 5. Its up to him - his career is on the line.
