Match Day Thread Hull City v Preston NE

Meyler's a decent right back.

 

He's also our best midfielder

 

Is Lenihan fit? He can't be that bad surely?

I wonder how far away Dan Batty is from being able to be thrown in for 10/15 minutes in centre mid. He's meant to be decent.

 

Aina is our principal attacking threat at the moment. So while I might redeploy him, I definitely wouldn’t ****can him.

 

I watched a few of the preseason games and Lenihan looked shocking. He may have been off the pace having been injured for 7 years but it didn't look good.

 

Aina is an interesting one , he can't defend but he can go on mazy runs beating about 5 players , he's certainly got ability as a footballer
the question is can we use it and find a position for him to play in the team

 

Well i'm out of ideas. Tomori possibly in 4-4-2.

 

Maybe try him RM in front of Temori at RB

 

I thought a quick fix last night was to put Tomori right back and Aina as right midfield. Aina looks like a winger to me.

 

No I might use him further up, but just not as a RB

 

We've been linked with Carlton Cole and a free agent...

 

At the moment with what **** we have available in a 4-4-2.

Assuming some of the not too badly injured players are nearly fit I'd probably go with:

McGregor

Meyler Dawson Mazuch Clark

Aina Irvine Stewart Grosicki

Campbell Bowen

Subs
Marshall
Tomori
Hector
Dicko
Larsson

 

He couldn't be any worse than most of our current options. Then again....

 

For one horrible moment last night I thought Gregor had done his back again. Marshalls arse must have been twitching,..,

 

McGregor was great last night. Made some very good saves and even tried to kick the ball at the ref.

 

It is a shame he didn't hit him. I won't go on about poor refereeing, but the fella last night was an absolute joke. As bad at officiating a match as Kingsley is at playing left back. Shambles.

 

I'm glad he missed him Lewis... !!!... Gregor (and Bowen) have been the ONLY players who can hold heads up this season so far!!

 

Kingsley looks ****e doesn't he? Strange to read the Swans fans reactions when he was sold. They seemed to think he was a genuine loss.

 

True but it was never going to hit him. McGregor struggles to keep in the pitch from goal kicks! He was never going to hit him.

 

Which leads us to another point of goal kicks to the touch line where Aina doesn't want to ruin his hair do and Clark and Kingsley just duck under it... Another thing, do any of our players know hot to trap a ball on the chest instead of 5 minutes of head tennis we witnessed last night.. Obviously not..
