Hopefully we will have learned from the Middlesbrough game and start with intensity. Having seen most of the teams in this division now, I am in no doubt that we are top half (if not top 6) in terms of individual quality. We just need it to click. I think it will today like it did against Rotherham. Millwall 3 Hull City 5 Or… We will pass too much, look like a good footballing team, but no one will be brave enough to try to penetrate. Millwall will let us have the ball and then hit us on the counter with some direct forward passing (Honeyman will be outstanding). Millwall 3 Hull City 0 I’ll be keeping a close eye on the shots on target stat to see which City have turned up. Team I would go for: Baxter Christie Jones Greaves Fleming Docherty Seri Slater Pelkas Oscar Sinik I think Tufan should definitely be used as an impact sub. Anyway, can’t wait for this one!
This is a tough game for Liam's baptism.Depending on how much knowledge he's picked up in the last few days, I'd expect the odd subtle change in selection and style of play... I wish him well and if he can start off with a decent performance and result we could well see a feelgood factor kicking in. I'd take a draw right now because Millwall is a tough gig and they're up near the top for good reason. Good luck young Rosenior.
I did the 0-4 under Nigel Pearson...The journey from London Bridge to the ground, in a carriage full of hard Millwall teenage thugs was an eye opener. Actually, in truth they were nothing. One of my lethal farts would have decked them. More interesting on the way back with the coppers holding back their tearaways on the walkway to the platform.
playing 3 centre backs should give him more defensive cover. Obviously there’s still defending to do, and like you say he does get caught napping every now and again but he’s been pretty much our only genuine threat going forward the last 2 games and offers proper width up and down the pitch.
Good luck indeed. Goes without saying the job in hand is difficult and no matter who everyone wanted still would of been with many other names mentioned on here, On the plus side it’s a fixable situation given time and money and Rossy stands to become an overnight hero on the terraces and in parts of Turkey with the right set of results. UTT.
What's happened to Harvey Vale I thought he was meant to be the next big thing. Didn't think he would be starting games but thought he would be coming off the bench to make an impact.
