$#@!ing trash.
It's neither good or experimental. It's just plain $#@!.
Let's run through it shall we:
Lonergan: Let in an absolutely pathetic goal on Friday, dubious effort for the other one, made 0 saves, has no long term future here...so why is he playing ahead of a youngster
Coady: Can't fault his effort while playing out of position but Iorfa is clearly available again after whatever his issues were as he's on the bench...so pick an actual RB there
Williamson/Stearman: Ok, one of them had to play realistically as Batth is out. Although I'd have played Johnson with Hause (dropped after one error following two months of good form?) as neither of those pair will be here next season
Doherty: When his #1 fan in Britney is calling him out as a half-arsed $#@!ehawk, you know he has no business being anywhere near the team. On the wrong side. Silvio is allegedly fit again so should have played
Saiss: Surprised he's in actually. Thought he'd be the fall guy. I'm not sold on him but there you go Paul, you can have a tick for playing him.
Saville: Out of contract in a few weeks while Lee Evans, recipient of a 3.5 year deal recently, is on the bench.
Marshall: No issues there
Edwards: Has he not seen enough of him at #10 to know that he offers NOTHING in that role? Isn't even a goal threat from that position
Weimann: The one player we've had all season who has looked good up front and a genuine goal threat. Has played out wide a lot, he has had one good game there (at Anfield) and the rest he has offered zero in an attacking sense. So let's play him wide
Dicko: I don't like having a go at Nouha but he's had opportunities this season and not taken them. Lambert says he won't be any good until he has a pre-season. Why is he playing while we've sent Wilson to play in a dead U23s game? At least it's not Bodvarsson controlling the ball straight out of play I suppose
Absolutely barmy selection, I can't even fathom what he's thinking. It's not even set up for us to contain.

Indication from Player commentary that Weimann playing in the 10 role with Saville on the left
Better that Weimann is not out wide, but poor to put Saville back there again
(whether this info is accurate is another matter as their record is not that good)
Oh good Player drops out even before kick off - hopefully that continues
