Good Luck to Dodds and his team. I fear another game that could go either way, and it won’t be pretty. Going for 1-0 (Rusyn). HAWAY Bart
Clarke will miss tomorrow, but ok for next week Styles in squad Corry Evans training with 1st team Rest of squad as expected Dack and Alese training with 1st team Roberts in training but "not close" to return
MD: “Jack rolled his ankle against Birmingham and went on to play 90 minutes. The plan was to have him train Wednesday, Thursday and Friday but it looks like this game might come too soon for him. We will assess him again on Monday.” Hjelde Is OK Jack rolled his ankle not too bad, but is out Evans back training with u21s Styles training and fit
MD: “Without giving too much away it’ll be a chance for me to tweak one or two things. When Jack has been taken out of the team you have to tweak things. The next one or two games will be interesting in a case of team selections.” #safc As @Prehab26 alluded to, sounds like 3 at the back tomorrow.
Thought he came across very well. Hope we can get behind him and the lads tomorrow and get the 3 points with a good performance.
I like him, seems level headed and knows what he's doing. Be interesting seeing what he does. Did someone allude to three at back? Hume, seelt, o9 Who would the wing backs be? Ba and hjedle?
Sounds like we have a few more options than we though. Do we think Seelt, O'Nien and Hjelde as a back 3. Maybe Hume and Styles as wing backs? Going to be interesting to see how we set up
I hope we dont revert to Jobe up front which seemed a bit of a go to tactic for Dodds. I would keep going with Rusyn in there. Hope to see Styles get some game time. I still think he will make a difference in terms of experience and know how. Clarke missing is a blow, chance for someone else to show up. Mundle might be obvious with Ba on the right. Wouldnt mind seeing Adil get a chance but that may mean Jobe sitting out and I dont see Dodds doing that tbh. Rumours of a back 3 worry me. This should be a game to go after them and attack them hard and fast. Back four of Hume, Seelt, O9, Hjelde Neil as the holding player. Ba, Adil, Ekwah and Mundle Rusyn as the 9. Time for a back 3 in the upcoming games. Unless Pembele is showing fitness and performance in training I dont think we have enough attacking talent in those positions to play attacking wingbacks.
Think a three at the back would be Seelt,O9 and Hjelde,if he's fit.....Hume, Seelt, O9 if he's not. Pretty sure in that scenario right wing back would be Pembele, not sure about the left....? Team selection at 2pm tomorrow is going to be really interesting.
