Preseason

..... and not a lot of Carlisle fans I will wager.

 

U23s already 1-0 down.

 

QPR U23 1 up already! An Eze goal.

 

2 - 1 JRod 35 minutes.

 

Wonder if Jay and Charlie will be subbed now. Do they really need to play a whole match with the Watford game coming up. Scoring (even at this level) is good for confidence.

 

That they won't be starting on Saturday?

 

That would be a thought if they weren't two thirds of our strike force.

 

No Subs at HT.

 

If they need fitness they'll probably do 60 minutes or so, seems to be what Puel's been doing this pre season.

 

If there playing this much just 4 days before the Watford game neither of them will be starting Saturday. Suggests redmond, long and Tadic will play.

 

Both need to sharpen up, so this game could be good for them. We will certainly need both of them this season.

 

I think that is pretty much understood tbf....it's Shane and Nathan's shirts to lose

 

Indeed. Everyone will get plenty of opportunities with the number of games this season which is good.

 

I said it in the other thread, and I'll say it again - I believe Chazza is a good enough target man striker to build our tactics around, in a 4-2-3-1.
Hope this new diamond formation pays off

 

Austin subbed after 72mins
