He has to start on sunday if he's recovered from last nights game. He always seems to play well against a cardiff defence that dont no how to control him. 3. Points at cardiff on sunday would be such a massive confidence boost.come on city
I wouldn't change the team from the Brighton match, there is no good reason to. I'd be very happy for Howard to be on the bench though, he's always been a different option to what we've already got. How was Danns last night btw? Had an effect or flattered to decieve?
I think Stevie will be on the bench for the game but Sven will be aware that he certainly knows how to disrupt the Cardiff defence. I have a feeling that Beckford will open his account on Sunday but if it hasn't happened by 70 mins then I suspect Sven will mix it up with Stevie. Schlupp also deserves more time on the pitch - for me he is the most exciting home grown (OK he's not from the Saffron Lane but you know what I mean) prospect since Matt Piper ..
As much as Howard always seems to have a good 'un against us it is worth remembering that 3 of our back 4 will be different on Sunday in all liklihood! Still, he'd be useful for you off the bench if there's room for him (in more ways than 1)
Our team for Saturday should be Schmeichel Peltier Mills Bamba Konchesky Abe King Wellens Fernandes Beckford Vassell Subs Weale, St. Ledger, Danns, Dyer, Howard
never been a fan of a sub keeper, stick bamba in if needed! Haha imagine. Bamba's such a hero, love him. I agree with sticking with the same team as brighton but i hope theres going to be a quick plan b, personally i think wellens had a stinker on saturday! Hope hes shacken off the knock he was carrying for sunday! Otherwise move over for johnson
Agree with that, sometimes I think we'd be better off having no one in goal at all than have Weale in there
^ oh yeah i forgot- who else was on the bench then?! But seriously how many times do you need a sub keeper, like once a season tops? You will probably more than make back the points by having the extra sub. plus sometimes an unrecognised keeper can help- causes them to physcologically shoot on sight from distance, that can be saved easily. And lets face it, if its from distance weale wouldnt get it anyway
I have stood in for emergency keeper for my old team once before. Ended up keeping a clean sheet and not having to save a decent shot due to them all blazing over etc. Annoyibng how Weale had 3 penalties down the centre, he should be doing much better than he is.
Im keeper for our 5 a side, RB for my halls and Striker for our halls!! I often go in goal in 11 a side and if people see me change in it often helps as they think im not a keeper, and just shoot from anywhere! Who knows what may have been... i had GK trials with city as a kid (i didnt get in, some were VERY good), but maintained a high standard of playing... then i stopped growing and at 5 foot 8 1/2 its difficult in full goals, but much easier in 5 a side and you can get down quicker!!
I too would go without the sub keeper. In all likelihood, the only way we'd lose Kasper again is if he re-enacted Forest away and I doubt he'll do that again. Same team as vs Brighton for me: Schmeichel Peltier - Mills - Bamba - Konchesky Wellens Abe - Fernandes King Beckford - Vassell Subs: St Ledger Johnson Danns Dyer Schlupp
