With nothing to lose how about playing Harry Maguire up front with Brady in the hole ? I dont see either Aluko or Ramirez having much in them so impact subs maybe the best idea for this game. Thankfully then they all get a 2 week break before the Toon game. The bench would still look fairly strong with the likes of :- Harper - McShane - Dawson - Ince - Aluko - Ramirez - Rossi (no thanks re.Sagbo).
tickles is a bit sparse up there.. maguire upfront and brady 'in the hole' step1. think of a really tall player step 2. no matter his position or experience step 3. put him up front and he can do a 'andy carroll' step 4. play brady in a position he's heard jamie redknap use on sky sports. . 'in the hole' losing will be a small diaster for our season I'd say we have lots to lose
He was **** against Arsenal, **** against West Brom, **** against Sunderland, he was even **** at Everton after scoring! He's awful, I'd rather give Tickler ago up top.
egg chasing that's the most offensive thing anyone's ever said to me id rather dip my balls in sulphuric acid than watch any form of that ****e.
While I don't see Maguire as a striker on Sunday, feel there maybe a chance that he might start, to cancel out the aerial threat from Carroll. Maguire a big unit and that's what might be needed.
Chester definitely has better skills on the balls im unsure what aluko even is one good game in 15 probably he's a fluffer, a bottler, a choker don't need him at all
Any youngsters in the development squad who play up front? Instead of wingers, centrebacks, attacking midfielders and french strikers with no effort
that's actually how i imagine tickles down to a tee! his fumbling fingers struggling to differentiate between the keys
Or Curtis 'even though the ball is just inches off the ground I'll still head it instead of controlling it with my feet' Davies as he's known in the South Stand. See, this is why we don't sing much
i think we should accept we are the benny hill of the premier league elmos wee flick last weekend was sublime Christmas bloopers dvds will have too much footage!
I think that Bruce or Dawson would have the size to handle Carroll. But we need a presence in there box and Maguire for me fits that situation. If it does not work then so be it. Not many expect to get anything from the game anyway. Older fans will remember SuperMac Malcolm MacDonald who was a young centre back for Luton who had to play upfront during an injury crisis. The rest as they say is history. I dont expect SB to use Maguire up front but why not when the only other option is the young lad Rossi.
Don't quite see what your getting at here really pointing this out to us. It is our nickname after all, don't really see anything wrong with that
