Same here, pleased Adil is starting Hemir is our own player so must start ahead of burstow every game, hope he gets off the mark soon. I agree about being more of an option, he needs to start being a presence upfront Not surpirsed rigg dropped to the bench, got to manage his minutes betweem now n the end of the season Jobe n ba need to start as they are goal threats, 2nd n 3rd top scorers so not surprised both starting again
Apart from Ba for Rigg, don’t mind that at all. Rigg off the bench always a good option… just hope the set up is not too complicated so we start well and on the front foot….
Looking at the team again, I would think we're going 4-2-3-1, Jobe alongside Neil, Mundle and Ba wide and AA in the number 10
That’s the midfield 5 I’d have gone with last week like. Jobe and Neil in the middle with Aouchiche 10 and Mundle/Ba wide.
That's about the strongest team we could hope to put out. I hope we get through this game without any more injuries, particularly Dan Ballard who they are undoubtedly taking a risk with.
I’ve just seen the goals 3 and 4 that Southampton got last week. We were disappointed with Jobe heading back into the goal area but these last two goals were both similar with the initial shot being saved but the block and attempted clearances both fell perfectly for Southampton. If they had a player in our box and he passed it to their scorer he could not have given him a better pass than the ‘cleared’ ball from our defenders. It’s about time we got a bit of luck the way lots of teams are getting against us.
