We should have grabbed MLS leading goal scorer BWP - perhaps he could have pointed bruv SWP in the "right" direction!
Only 1 goal in the 4 other League cup games tonight, Stoke 1 up against Pompey, Villa v Orient, Brum v Sunderland, Bradford v Massive all goalless.....
OBZ must come on because we have nothing up front. When OBZ holds the ball up Adel and Matty will get the ball facing their goal which will be too bigger problem for Burton defenders. The commentators have said that they allow Ned to have the ball and force him to play it long. With OBZ there they will have to change their tactics.
I'll genuinely be delighted if we win this 1-0. Even if it's an ugly grinding performance- that goal and a 'W' would be most welcome
Doesn't seem like Arry is risking any of His first 11 for Saturday, and so probably not our Super Sub either.
Exactly! And he ain't done sh*t! A boy with his skill should be producing much more than what he has done to date. He simply can't go down the line and cut a cross in. Its not in his makeup. Therefore I'd shunt him inside like what was done with him preseason and allow him run at people through the middle. The commentator tonight has him off to a tee, Totally
Commentator confirms we are playing with a back 4. A bit more gross negligence, or have we gone back to a back 4? Perhaps Arry don't know either.
I agree regarding his ability, but you can't base your argument on the little that he did in Ireland. Those teams were much weaker than Burton. We have a handful of players who are better in the #10 role.
"This has got extra time and penalties written all over it" I hope not I've got to get up early in the morning.
Well I'm not though am I? I've been saying that since our relegation season. He's never produced anywhere near as much as he should down the wing. Can you remember him once getting down the line and whipping in a cross? Because I can't. The fullback just has to show him outside and he'll always cut back or run straight into him. He's too predictable. I'd play him ahead of Mutch where he has been played so far this season. In a more central role.
