Can always go 4 - 4 - 2 or 4 - 4 - 3. Or any other combination involving only 2 cb's, neither of whom is Manga. As the away team this formation could suit us more in terms of keeping the ball. Hard to see where a fast paced counter attack will come from though - until Noone or Harris gets on. Fair do's to Trolls though. If someone has a mare he has no issues in benching them. Ralls will have to watch out if he plays today like he has done in the last 2. Especially as Huws gets closer to full match fitness and O'Keefe returns to the fold - another 2/3 weeks maybe?
I see Malone starts for Fulham and no Matt Smith. Good choice with Peltier if they are not relying on aerial assaults.
I hope Noone doesn't get anywhere near the pitch on his current form. As you say Ralls needs to improve aswell.
I must echo that about Noone. I wished we'd taken that 2 mill that Norwich offered last season. He may be a match winner on his day but that day doesn't come anywhere near often enough. He all too often runs up blind alleys and loses the ball far more than he uses it.
20 mins gone and 0-0. nice to see our possession game is bearing fruit as we suffered badly under Slade's 442. 33% is a vast improvement!!!!!
My tenner was never safe hampshire - but I expect Noone to come on second half and score a hat-trick.
Sessegnon only on field for 3 minutes. . What will Trolls do now? Does he know the side with the most goals is the winner? No shots on target by us so far. No change then.
Can you send me a bottle of what you're drinking please. I think you've chosen the wrong player. It will be a Fred hat trick.
