Line up for the 1-0 win at Huddersfield early in the season

 

        Westwood

Palmer Lees Hutch Pudil

Bannan Lee Jones Reach 

           Hooper FF

 

Good performance and a great win. 

 

Plenty of options. I think we're capable of winning whichever line up Carlos chooses.

Hooper can't have played he's been out injured all season.

If he can last 60-70 minutes, Nando has to start with Hooper unavailable.

This is an intriguing conundrum. 

I could see FF working in a "free" role behind Fletch. If the remaining two banks of 4 are pretty much as we expect that should be solid and give him that freedom to range around finding any gaps. I think it was @scram who once described FF as being like letting a bomb off in the opponents half. He does tend to put the wind up Huddersfield. Alternatively take your pick of Rhodes or Winnall paired with Fletch up top and FF comes off the bench when we need a change up or they're getting tired.

Please please please not FF as striker!

 

We score one goal per game on average when he is striker. That's based on both last season and this. It's not a freaky short-term stat.

 

If he battles to get a starting shirt off someone it's Reach, out wide. And that is a big call too.

 

Fletcher is scoring.

The team is scoring, and winning.

We have the striker you always wanted - trust him. He has NEVER failed.

Because one is completely proven at this level. The other is promising but unproven.

 

Havent seen anything yet to suggest Winnall is top Championship level. He might be, but not seen it.

 

Most people on here agree that rhodes hasn't looked sharp since joining us. What makes you think that will change in the play offs?

It doesn't  need to change. It's about the team scoring and winning, not any individual.

 

You know the well worn stat, but also what about 35 points from his 17 games? That's automatic promotion form.

 

Also he is a fabulous foil for Fletcher. They have only played 223 minutes together yet Fletch has 4 goals in that time!

 

But we also know he will start to score himself. He always does.

Why on earth do you keep spouting this crap?

 

Remind me where FF played in both league wins over Huddersfield.

If available, how many other play off teams would leave their top scorer on the bench?

Top scorer 2 years running. 

 

27 goals, 14 assists and created many more in 2 seasons.

 

Still our main man and most valuable asset by some distance. Our Messi. 

 

It would take a brave man to leave him out at such an important point in our club's history. Imagine us going out to Huddersfield with FF sat on the bench, considering his recent record against them.

Change what? We haven't had the same team for those 6 wins. 

 

Change from two out and out strikers, which has produced goals and wins.

 

I don't want a return to the one-goal-per game line up.
