I think Fox would be better suited to being the left-sided centre back than left wing back.

 

Reach could then play left wing back, or if we don't want to lose his legs from a more central position, we could also look at the likes of Penney for left wing back.

Been saying that I thought he'd make a better cb in time rather than lb. Quite strong and good in the air. Don't know how much Jos has learned this week about king pig and his arial bombardment tactics, so even though he's been pretty awful most of the season that bit of extra ability in the air may prove useful at wingback defensively.

Do we think this is the team?

Judging by Luhukay's comments after Tuesday's game I think there will be a case for Matias up front with Joao. Pace with pace to unsettle Cardiff defenders.

I agree. The team I put down was what I thought it would be. If Matias is playing instead of Rhodes, I will be delighted as Rhodes offers very little for the team.

Be slightly disappointed if Rhodes starts, as I'd really like to see a João-Matias partnership.

 

Still, I can understand the persistence with Rhodes even if the vast majority of his appearances for us have been less than convincing. I also expect JL to keep tweaking the team to find a way to make the best use of Rhodes between now and May, and if he can't do so by then I expect we'll try to move him on - although that could actually be tricky given that I can imagine his wages are quite high. Maybe a season-long loan to one of the relegated sides from the Prem might be our best bet.

Our team news seems to be getting leaked out every week lately. Not sure that's a good thing. 

 

True hope the club can find where its coming from, it used to be a couple of times a season someone itk would post the team on here now it seems like half the forum know every week.

Agreed, we and more importantly the opposition don't need to be finding these things out early.

So, what we’re saying then is that Jos is happy to give youth a chance if he thinks they’re good enough, and wants to make an assessment on all his playing staff before wasting loads of cash on unnecessary signings? That’s a great idea, why didn’t Carlos think of that? Someone tell him we’ve got a 40 goal striker stashed away in the loft too.

 

 

So true and so disappointing

Strange he'd come in ahead of Neilson and O'Grady though isn't it?

 

Maybe thats why they started at Carlisle but he didn't.

Just thought one of them might have done enough to retain a spot.

He was Cup tied for Carlisle game wasn't he having played for Accrington. 

 

Perhaps Jos just wants to see them all in match action with his own eyes before making longer term decsions

Which is fair enough.  Something we should have been long before now.
