I know RW likes his 442, but taking all our fixtures into account I think this can be classed as a 'free game', where we can try it out. Placide Hunt - Gerrard - Bryan - Moimbe McLaughlin - Fane - Gardner - Pringle Byrne Doyle We should be able to knock it about on their pitch. A repeat of Blackburn for me, hopefully with us holding on this time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whittles left foot Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 For me that midfield is too weak. Mclaughlin was terrible against Portsmouth-my thoughts about Fane are already on record. I would change it about more. Play Edmundson alongside Gerrard if he is fit again and move Bryan into midfield and bring McEleney in. Not bothered about Hunt/Dummigan. Nothing to lose against these-can't understand the optimism about this game when we have been so poor recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Following this, we then revert to type and usually take 1 point from 9 in the next three. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flemboy Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 We are getting the 916am from Piccadilly so should be in the nearby Wetherspoons by 10 am. Looking forwards to a good day out and a 1-2 win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boundaryblue80 Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Agree about the cringeworthy chanting. As for the team, I feel Nazon needs to start. His pace frightens defences. It's something we don't have when he isn't playing and it scared the shit out of Blackburn and Bury (when we actually got the ball to his feet). How we fit him in though is the conundrum. Add to that, this midfield needs to get Byrne the ball in places he can hurt teams. That means Fane and Gardner stepping up to the plate coz they've been way off it lately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel that has been down to having to come deep to help out others not doing their jobs. Amount of times he's been in our own half trying to pick a pass...he wants to be further up the pitch doing it IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Sinnott Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 It is absolutely crucial that Gerrard is fit for the game - he could be the difference between a 2-0 defeat and a 5-0 defeat... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only player who seemed to give a toss against Portsmouth Have to agree to disagree on that one. He's been a bit like Banks...does a lot of running around. Looks busy which does win some over. Actual effectiveness tho, very little IMO. Hasn't help to push the team forward...merely sideways or backwards. There's a good player in there but only shown it for small spells this season sadly.

I thought we were getting an attacking midfielder who loved having a shot and would chip in with some goals, been a bit disappointed with him on the whole.

welshgaz Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Bryne is such a big player for us but unfortunately I've not seen him have a good game for some time, largely down to Wellens playing him out of position. Bryne is a no.10, nothing else so we need to play him there. Unfortunatly that would mean one up top and Doyle struggles by himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leeslover Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 He doesn't go deep to help the defence though, he does it to collect the ball. Perhaps because he's getting no service but we can't fix that while he plays sweeper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
