Who would you like to see play?

This would be my starting XI

Schmeichel
Peltier Mills Bamba Koncheskey
Danns Fernandes King
Gallagher Nugent Vassell​


I really hope we sign a winger and striker this week though.

Hopefully Townsend and Maynard/Long

<ok>
 
Would put Wellens in ahead of King as I don't believe RW can play as poorly again
If we get a winger (say Townsend) and a striker (Maynard or Long) the front three would be pretty hot

Townsend Maynard/Long Nugent

I really think we will be too strong in every department in this division and maybe only West Ham will match us
 
Think Wellens was taken off at half time for 3 reasons
1) Sven still not sure of his preferred starting line up
2) Needed to give Johnson some match time
3) Wellens was being fouled whenever he got the ball - wanted to protect him

Think the line up will be

Schmeichel
Peltier Mills Bamba Koncheskey
Danns Johnson Wellens
Gallagher Nugent Vassell
 
Kingy always seems to have a good game against Cov. I'd have him in the team for this reason alone, just like you'd always put Howard in your front line against Leeds :p
 
I actually thought Abe was very good sitting in front of the back 4 made some good tackles and, bar a couple of misplaced passes, his passing was also very good. Johnson (understandably) didn't look 100% so I wouldn't start him just yet. I think it'll be a close call on whether Fernandes plays and I think Wellens is the most vulnerable. I would play King because I thought Nugent looked isolated at times up front and we didn't have that midfielder breaking forward like King usually does but maybe that's understandable given the numbers we had to get back to defend.

Schmeichel
Peltier - Mills - Bamba - Konchesky
Wellens/Fernandes - Abe - King
Danns - Nugent - Gallagher

Subs:
St Ledger
Pantsil
Fernandes/Wellens
Johnson
Vassell

Gone for a risk without the sub keeper because you very rarely need one and all those players bring something different on the bench.

Abe would be better against the stronger teams, i would hope we take an attacking p.o.v with us to Cov.

I dont care what team plays, as long as we are on 3 points before our first home game against Reading.
