Assuming for the purpose of this post, that the starting eleven is unchanged. And that Kelly and Wagstaff are considered as fit, it would give us a very strong bench: Moore, Cunningham, Osbourne, Kelly, Bryan, Wagstaff, Burns. The best bench we've had this season.
Surely that daft bu**er wouldn't pick Wagstaff. Yeh, you're right - he's mad enough. 'it would give us a very strong bench' It would give us a stronger team if he played Williams in central defence with Moloney and Cunningham as full backs. Round pegs etc etc El Abd is a disaster waiting to happen and Williams is no more full back than fly.
What I will say about El Abd is give the guy a bit of time - he only played for one club, Brighton (whose fans highly rate him) - maybe he just needs a bit of time to settle
I don't think Waggy is all that bad.....had some good games and some bad games a bit like the rest of the team.
smhbcfc - I hope you're right about ElAbd. For me he's the type that acts first and thinks later - dangerous trait for a defender, especially in the box. Cotterill also plays him LS which doesn't help. Caldicot - you're not on your own with your opinion of Wagstaff. However, for me he flatters to deceive. Can't tackle, head and wouldn't go by my mother. And he's chicken.
At RWB Waggy looks good. As a RM he disappears to much. If cotterill wants to stick with a 5-3-2 then play waggy in the RWB position. As it stands though, the team that beat Gillingham should start tomorrow. They won as a team so deserve to keep their place. Bench will look great though, as said.
El-Bad I just don't get. He had rave reviews from the gay boys on the coast and I really thought it was going to be our best signing.........he just does'nt fit in at the moment thats for sure.
El Bad looked like a schoolboy against Tranmere. For someone who has played at a decent level he doesn't inspire any confidence at all. Very bizarre....
Can we assume RP, that Way staff is not your favourite player? Is there anyone on the playing staff at Ashton Gate that you do rate?
'Is there anyone on the playing staff at Ashton Gate that you do rate?' Baldock Moloney, Cunningham, JET, Osbourne - Centrally, Williams - Centrally, Pearson, Burns, Reid, Bryan, Kelly, Marv, Pack. Of course I'd play them in their correct positions All above are decent L1 players, our problem has been the idiots managing them.
All of them are good on their day but its just that lot have far too many occasions when it isnt their day and they just don't turn up. As for JET, it hasn't been around for a good 3 months but he has shown before that he is quality player when he wants to be, so we've just got to find a way to make him play well.
