Is this the first match City will play with a foreign coach against a team managed by an ex-City foreign coach?
Baxter - he keeps the ball out the net miles betterer McLoughlin middle centre back - best centre back Greaves left centre back - 2nd best centre back Bernard right centre back - aggressive and quick. Fleming left wing back - best player 2 out the last 3 Longman right wing back - provides threat on that side going forward. Smallwood holding mid - break the play up provide options for the back men to pass to. Honeyman box to box - utilise his energy and ability on the turn to link the midfield to attack KLP left wing - his actual position try isolate him against the full back Eaves striker - runs all day nightmare for defenders Allahyar right wing - pace got a bit of bite and desire to get on the ball. Playing honeyman more disciplined as he over complicated things further up I feel sometimes. Especially last night. Mixture up front of pace and power from Eaves can make the direct style work more with these 3 up there too as Eaves headers won’t be wasted
After last night, I'll settle for us playing with some energy, another 10 yards up the pitch with lots more movement and first time passing. Team selection, that's Shotas job!
I've been thinking about Den's team.... Jones in for Smallwood.... ?... when he came I always thought we'd bought a midfielder who just happened to have to play CB due to injury...?
Change Coyle for Longman and put Alllahyar in top right and I’d be happy with that. edit Alfie for the Doc, Doc needs resting.
I don't care what team he picks. We need to move the ball better (quicker and more accurate), we need more options when we have the ball, if we play it long (nothing wrong with mixing it up), make it a pass and not a hopeful hoof. Get ****ing stuck into them and don't let them settle on the ball. Easy peasy.
See nobody's named Forss in their team. Simply not good enough and he won't come good it we give him a chance. Cancel his loan now. Save a few quid.
I really can't see anything but a Fulham win, but one can live in hope. Certainly need to play 100% better than Tuesday's abject performance. I like the look of: Baxter Bernard or Jones/McLoughlin/Greaves Longman/Smallwood or Slater/Docherty/KLP Honeyman Eaves/Allahyar
If we get a free pick, my choice for the City side would be: Rodak; Williams, Adarabioyo, Ream, Robinson; Reed, Cairney; Wilson, Carvalho, Kebano; Mitrovic
