The Hodge said Poulsen's big task at the moment is fitness. No thanks to Juve.
I didn't see the match, but I can tell you the 4-4-2 is pretty dumb to play when none of our "wingers" can actually provide width and cross the ball. But since Poulsen isn't fit, Mascherano is having a break down, and Aquilani is vacationing for the winter in Torino I guess two rows of 4 is "a" solution. Losing away isn't a big surprise, but I would have preferred to have scored or taken a few scalps.
I also think it was a bad decision to play a concussed Agger over a healthy Aurellio.
Also, just realized that we're down to three central midfielders.
