No we could play a proper centre half next to Ballard that would help in my opinion and if there’s no position for O9 his versatility would be great from the bench
I think playing Rusyn at centre forward would be similar to Gelhardt to be honest. Neither are the big no. 9 type but, while he is maybe more comfortable playing off the left hand side, Rusyn can play through the middle. He is probably less likely to drift out of position than Jobe is when he plays up front, which might mean more passing options to help us play through the lines quicker.
Good point on Rusyn. In fact probably even better suited than Gelhardt as Ruysn looks to get on the end of things in the box, would like to see him get more involved in the build up at times though, without him losing the runs in behind and high pressing
Here's the full list of players missing the trip to the Stadium of Light.... Aaron Connolly Ruben Vinagre - returning to Sporting Lisbon Adama Traore - Africa Cup of Nations Dogukan Sinik Liam Delap Jaden Philogene Jean Michael Seri - Africa Cup of Nations James Furlong Cyrus Christie Aren't we supposed to be the club that causes injuries to our own players. "Hull City's injury list has received another addition since Tuesday night's 2-1 defeat at Birmingham City in the FA Cup replay with the Tigers facing a crisis of absentees. James Furlong is the latest to fall victim to the curse having damaged his medial knee ligaments at St Andrew's in what was his first appearance of the season, following his arrival from Brighton and Hove Albion on deadline day in the summer. Furlong joins a growing list of players unavailable to City head coach Liam Rosenior ahead of Friday night's trip to Sunderland in a crucial game in the race for the play-offs, their last for two weeks."
they need to man up. They should have shovels on their back for when the snow really starts coming down. What are we teaching these days? Honestly, o despair
Can't remember specifics mate,but more or less from when he first joined us.He played midfield then for a while and looked lost.
Gutted that I won't be there tonight, the chest infection has got me absolutely floored. Sofa and lemsip to cheer the lads on tonight, I got a feeling we will go at them from the first whistle
Not as bad as it has been looking at this https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/forecast/gcz02e3x2#?date=2024-01-19
Will be cold, but not as cold as previous nights. WBA last season was the worst I've experienced since RP days Should be 1 or 2C at KO so not bad at all.
