Their teamsheet looks poorer. Big centre half injured. 5 changes for them. I’m confident now They don’t look anywhere near as strong as even the last time they played and I didn’t think much of that. Weaker midfield and attack and defence for me. @Scout73 thoughts? HAWAY REGIS ALL OUT ATTACK MACKEMS.
I’d heard Cirkin would be back quickly but if he had surgery last week you’d think it’s at least another 2 weeks which is 4 games.
Hope this is correct and it's not Wilson on the left, Watson on the right and Mayenda up front. Although depleted players should start in their best position unless absolutely not possible.
Last time we played away in naff conditions, Portsmouth I believe, we got hammered 4-0. Our midfield was overrun. These type of conditions fk mdfield there are enough forwards there to hoof it up to do the business. Impressed with RLB again for going for it.
I don’t know necessarily if RLB is “going for it”. The team only looks attacking as there’s three strikers in it. If two of those are being asked to do midfield roles because he trusts them more than Aouchiche, Ba or Aleksic to do them, then it’s not necessarily attacking
Hope the front 3 is Watson-Isidor-Mayenda. I'm thinking a Mayenda back post header, he should be able to dominate Bryan physically.
Yeah they def aren't as strong as I thought they'd be, still strong in CM tho so that's the big battle. I hope it is Connolly in the Rigg role as I think that'll suit him Tough task for Watson against Leonard (if watson is LM), he needs to work hard defensively as well as Esse is a massive threat at RM for them Be a tough game still, I know Coopers a threat from set pieces but I was looking forward to seeing Isidor running at him
Thanks for bringing that memory up, the game that should have been abandoned but for some reason we tried to play a short passing style on a farmers field.
Its that word "if". I agree them 2 are better in a midfield role if necessary but they can all do a job where it matters. I still think AA & BA can do a job for us at some point. To be honest I would have had Jewy on the bench. Deffo not the finished article but he just runs at defenders and causes bother for them.
