Here's the probable team for tonight :- Lonergan Connolly Kisnorbo Lees O'Dea Snodgrass Brown Clayton Sam McCormack Keough. Here is the team I would play Lonergan Snodgrass (as a wing back) Kisnorbo Bruce Lees White (wing back) or Sam Brown Clayton Nunez Grella Keough. 5/3/2 formation with attacking wing backs pushing forward whenever possible
The team you'll almost certainly be facing: -------------Gulasci Rosenior Chester Hobbs Dudgeon Koren Evans McKenna Cairney Brady --------------Fryatt
Grella!!?? I'd go for: ---------------------------Lonergan Lees-------------Bromby--------------Paddy--------------O'Dea ------------------Brown--------------Clayton Sam------------------------------------------------------Nunez -----------------McCormack----------Keogh Sam's in because I'm not sure Snoddy is fully fit yet, if he is obviously he's in instead.
I would go for a similar line-up, although i reckon i'd chuck snoddy in coz i reckon he'd be fit. I think grayson will go for 451 though SOmething like this ------------------Lonergan------------------- Lees--------Bromby-------Kissa--------O'Dea ------------Brown------Clayton-------------- Snoddy-----------Nunez----------White/Sam -----------------Keogh---------------------
Got it in one I think Simon. I also like the idea of Snoddy getting a break, Sam & Nunez both starting, & Lees getting to start another game.
.............Lonergan................ Lees..Kissa....Bromby....O'Dea ..........Brown......Clayton....... Sam........Nunez......McCormack ................Keogh.................
Does anyone know how you go about upgrading a junior season ticket for a match? n how much it is to upgrade?
I think we've seen in the past that Snoddy can suffer from playing too much and/or playing when not 100% fit. Most teams in the league would kill to have Sam and Nunez as first choice wingers.
My pick would be (assuming all fit). 442 didnt suit Howson, but as he cant play it may well suit the others. Lonergan Connolly Lees Kissa ODea Snod Brown Clayton Nunez Keogh McCormack
---------------------Lonergran --Connolly------Lees------------Kisnorbo-----White --------------Clayton---------Brown- --Sam----------------- Nunez-----------McCormack ----------------------- Keogh------------------- Keep the 4-2-3-1 formation, because if this is the formation we'll play this season, they need the consistency. Tom Lees was okay filling in at rightback, but I wouldn't want him to be there every game. O'Dea is ****, he may put in a few decent performances but he will always be a poor centreback playing at leftback, Ben Parker didn't do well against Bradford and Aidy White deserves a chance and has always played well whenever he's played for us. Snodgrass has put in 2 poor performances, doesn't look match fit and Sam deserves to play. McCormack on the left - he played there for Cardiff more than he did upfront- and it could always be changed to a 4-4-2 if we need to.
White isn't a LB, and it's stupid to say that O'Dea's crap no matter how well he plays, he should be judged on his performances for us.
Why is White not a LB? He's played at leftback for us 15 odd times, and has mostly played well. Last season against Donny he played there when we got a rare clean sheet. Just because Grayson says he's a left winger, doesn't make it true. I saw O'Dea play for Ipswich last season and he was absolutely terrible. He's not a left back anyway. If he plays well for Leeds, then I'll change my mind. But so far he put in a terrible perfomance against Southampton, and then an average one against Boro. I just can't see him putting together a run of good performances, especially at leftback.
I'd go for Josh's starting line up, but I'd start Parker over O'Dea. I'm not ready to give up on the lad just yet. He showed signs of promise a while back before his injury issues, and it will take time before we can say for certain whether he's able to play at this level. He may not make the grade, i'm not saying he defo will, but I'd always like to see a LEEDS player on the pitch over a loanee (unless the loanee is awesome). O'Dea was pants against the Saints, but better against Boro so i'm not just saying bench him cos i think he's rubbish either.
My team for tonight if I were SG: GK - Lonergan RB- Lees CB - O'Dea CB - Paddy LB- White RM - Nunez CM - Brown CM-Clayton LM - McCormack cf - Snoddy (playing behind Keogh) cf - Keogh I think O'Dea can be quality in centre half, too slow and immobile for LB, White needs to get a chance and McCormack suits going deep and dictating things. Snoddy looks wrecked and isnt putting in a shift yet so give him a free role off the striker.
I dont care as long as they play with Passion Desire Strength Honour And a couple of goals with a clean sheet......
