Otto_Man Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 We could be kicking lining up as follows against Brighton as follows: Kirkland/Westwood Buxton Hutch Loovens Helan Maguire Semedo Lee Maghoma Antonio Nuhiu Which for me is a definite improvement on: Kirlkland Palmer Gardner Zayette Mattock JJ Prutton Coke Helan Antonio Nuhiu I'd love for the takeover to be ratified and for Terry Henfleet to be pictured on the OS with the number 10 shirt, but even if it doesn't happen for a while, I still reckon we're in better shape than this time last year.

FlyingOwl Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Westwood Buxton Loovens Hutch Mattock Antonio Lee Semedo Maguire Madine/Nuhiu Lavery This will be our starting line up if no more signings are made. I'd pick Helan over Mattock but I think Gray prefers Mattock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRUCE LEE Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Give it a week and there will be a lot of movement in the championship, the better players holding out for specific clubs will decide, the clubs losing out will move onto their next targets, and the viscous circle starts spinning at a rate of knots. We'll end up with another 4 or 5 new players by the Brighton game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IstillhateSteveBould Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Can't argue with op. Definitely a stronger side now. Fancy starting a championship season with Prutton, Coke, JJ and Helan across midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It ain't a bad side that, it's not a promotion side but it ain't bad at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmw Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 It's not just about the players. It's how you use them. Hodgson went into the world cup agonising about players but seemed to have little idea how to mould them into a unit that wins games. Compare with the likes of Costa Rica who had very little high profile talent but were organised and played as a team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto_Man Posted July 22, 2014 Author Share Posted July 22, 2014 It ain't a bad side that, it's not a promotion side but it ain't bad at all. This is exactly where I am, totally think Bruce is right unall, but the intention of the thread was to highlight that if this was it, then we're in a better position than we were last year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spookone Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 bottom 3rd at best whoever plays Boooo - even with that team there is no way we will be bottom 3 - I would put money on it (again) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueblood Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 You're all wrong cos we won't be playing 4-4-2, Gray has shown that his favoured formation is 4-2-3-1 and so it should be. I'd like it to be Westwood/Kirkland really can't decide at the moment. Palmer, hutch, Loovens, Helan palmer and Helan to cover the lack of pace Semedo, lee Antonio, Maguire, Maghoma Madine/Nuhiu both will have a big part to play as things stand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camffiti Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 In May (ish) I said we'd start the season playing 4-2-3-1, with the attack lining up something like this Antonio........Maguire........Maghoma .................Nuihu / Madine The general response was along the lines of ... 'Where's Fryatt, Wickham & Macheda?' and 'I smell bacon' Tbf, Leon Best could end up in that team, on loan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRUCE LEE Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 This is exactly where I am, totally think Bruce is right unall, but the intention of the thread was to highlight that if this was it, then we're in a better position than we were last year Agreed, the core group is much stronger. You build from the back and the 2 keepers are solid for this league, in defence we have a good combination of experience and consistency, along with the pace of Palmer and Helan. The issue we have is the quality to make the difference, strikers that turn draws into wins. Up front we are way short, but as the most expensive commodity we will either have to wait for the ratification and spend, or wait for the loan window and bring in the proven scorers that way (as per) .
