oafc1955 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 If we play both Banks and Gardner in our midfield I fear we'll get battered. Shez alludes to Gardner not being one to tackle and win headers so Fane will have his work cut out to protect the defence and 'doin the ugly' on his own. Shez says....."We have to be braver on the ball. Our possession is just not good enough." We as fans all know that, I don't think that can be coached as most of our team are experienced players and at this stage of their careers they either have that in their locker or not. History tells us we usually win these games when least expected, however tomorrow I fear a rout!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue_Guru Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 If we try and out pass/posess Wigan we will be battered. Different calibre of quality between both teams, our best chance isvto be resilient hard to breakdown and hope for a counter or set piece.

Blue_Guru Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 (edited) 4-5-1 for me wilson wilson Clarke Gerrard hunt mclaughlin fane banks Gardner tope davies fane and Gardner just in front of back 4 with fane the ball winner and Gardner set to take the ball off him and the back 4 to set a counter. AAH to come on for Davies if 0-0 or winning Duffuss to come on for banks if chasing Edited August 18, 2017 by Blue_Guru Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also reckon Sheridan's comment in the Chron about Otzhumer winning all the headers in the middle on Saturday was a direct dig at Fane. Get a few pints down Shez (and Wellens for that matter) and ask them about Fane. He isn't in the team because he's any good. He's in the team cos there's nobody else...
