It seems we are running out of players! Stockdale Chester Faye Hobbs Elmo Meyler Fahti Quinn Brady Fryatt Boyd or 4- 4- 2 Stockdale Fahti Chester Hobbs Brady Elmo Meyler Boyd Quinn Fryatt Proschwitz Who knows? Less and less bodies in the building it seems.....
Did we not learn our lesson playing Boyd CM? I'd keep the same team for 352, but if we went 442 I'd play Rosie at Rb, Fathi CM and Boyd up-top at Proschwitz' expense
As long as we do NOT play Simpson and/or Proschwitz we could be in with a chance to score a goal. The way they piss about with the ball leads me to believe that they were both circumcised with pinking shears! I would sooner play Aluko in a wheelchair than either of those two who, imo, should be arrested for impersonating a football player. I do not have 'Tiger Player' so rely on ESPN's Gamecast 'text' commentary and according to them we only had 3 shots on goal within the penalty area - all of which were off target. Again, according to the 'text commentary', Geoge Boyd took a throw-in - and that was his entire contribution for the match. We had 53% possession and a heap of corners all of which went to the 'near' of 'far post' which I found rather strange when we do not possess anyone capable of heading the ball even if it got to him. We finished up with a 2-3-5 tactic (which went out with the Do-Do) and still couldn't score! Looks like Koren is out and Matty still finding his feet so we could well be up **** creek on Friday night. I am praying for a point and Watford to lose and I will (again, like I did in 2008) unashamedly bawl my eyes out. Can we manage to beat Derby's all-time EPL (lowest) record of 15 points next season though? And Jimmy, please do not start rubbing your hands and polishing your boots again. Pretty please!
Please please tell me that's a wum as i honestly cant comprehend how one ounce of that is a true opinion...
Simpson is due a goal and has contributed to our great season with his all-round play. I think it's time for people to stop slating any of our players this season who have contributed to us going up, unless there is some calamity we are going up for sure.
Stockdale Chester Faye Hobbs Elmo Meyler Fathi Quinn Brady Simpson Gedo Boyd looks off the pace so I would start him off the bench (assuming Koren doesnt make it). Having the likes of Boyd to come on for the last 30 minutes should run a tiered defence ragged. I would like to see Fryatt get a start before the end of the season, but I dont think it will be Friday.
I doubt Fryatt is ready to start a match and he would probably be more effective coming off the bench later on.
Fully agree, i think its a complete achievement from all our team and ii think if we'd had one player eho conpletely outshone the rest and hsd 25 goals we'd have struggled more if he went out of form or injured like palace and watford, we've had a much more complete team, how many goals does cardiffs top scorer have? I hink they've been similar to us with a muce more all round team, which isbehy we are are in the top two.. All in all every player should be congratulated, proschwitz has got some vital goals to win us points too
Stand Simpson on the goal line and he would still miss. Nobody but NOBODY has missed so many simple chances than Simpson .Please let us have anyone but him upfront at least we would have anticipation and hope that we will get a goal.
^^this...Gedo back to his best would be nice for the last 3 games. Have we seen all 3 Egyptions on the park at the same time yet?
Gedo always had this habit to score whenever he is back from an injury so if he is ready to go i can see him scoring
SB might go with McShane in place of Faye, depending on whether McShane is fully fit and Faye might just be rested after so many games close together.
-------------Stockdale----------- ------Chester--Faye--Hobbs------ --Elmo-------------------Brady-- -------Meyler--Fathi--Quinn------- ---------------Boyd-------------- --------------Simpson------------
I'd go with this assuming Gedo is fit. We need more bite up front and against a weak Bristol team this should be enough. Rather than Simpson, who has missed chance after chance and plays far too deep, I'd be tempted to push Brady up with either Boyd or Gedo and put Rossy in at LWB. At least we know Brady can score with either foot and has the speed and skills to take defenders on. We need to go for it and get this virtually wrapped up with the best opportunity we'll have.
