Prove me wrong I am certainly no fan of Nuhiu, but we have limited options and bouncing balls off him high up the pitch at least relieves the pressure on our fragile back 4. I am hoping we look to get the ball in the box at every opportunity so he has a fighting chance of deflecting one in maybe or creating space for Rhodes?

Owls77 Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Not the starting 11 I wanted to see, but a thread bare squad needs freshening up with 3 games in 6 days, plenty of options from the bench if things aren’t going right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some need to be rested, Hoops and VA are not going to be risked, we can't 'outplay' Brentford away without a full strength squad...I can totally see why he's gone with this line up. Keep it tight, get forward quickly and get the ball to Nuhiu and let him cause havok! Brentford have picked the same side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IstillhateSteveBould Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 (edited) Can understand a couple of changes with 2 games in 3 days. Edited December 30, 2017 by IstillhateSteveBould Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEnchanter Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Just now, frastheowl said: Brentford have picked the same side. You don't know the circumstances for them. They have a much smaller squad than us. They might suffer for it? The line up doesn't bother me at this stage, I know we are depleted anyway. I think whoever plays will put the effort in for Bullen and I think it's a fresh start for a lot of them. Ultimately Brentford haven't lost at home for 11 games so it'd be impressive if we did win.

Bloxwich Owl Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Really wasn’t expecting anything from this game irrespective of the line up and IMHO if we come away with anything today we will have done very well. Bullen’s probably going to keep players rested for Monday for what, on paper should be a more achievable three points. COME ON WEDNESDAY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have another game in 2 days. Think people need to realise this season is over in terms of reaching the play offs so the best thing we can do is see who is worth keeping for next season. As long as playoffs are possible, they should be the target for whoever comes in. Write the season off when it's no longer possible, not 24 games in. The gap is a mere 11 points.

33 Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 (edited) Want the best out of Rhodes then stick him at the side of Adthe. Well done Lee. Butters must be there to protect the right flank. Soak it up hit them with Adthe setting one up for Rhodes then soak it up some more and let them be busy bees and buzz around a bit before unleashing Joao/Mattias second half. 0-2 UTO .

axolotl Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 People complain players are blowing out of their arses playing pedestrian football after 20 minutes. People complain when players are rested. Not saying it's the same people (neither the time nor inclination to check) but still... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You never know I suppose. But in all honesty I think a bit of realism wouldn't go a miss, plan for next season is important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
