Thought joey was a defensive miffielder bud,so him and Jones may not work. 

Agree with you ,just hoping he can do a more box to box style player, for my team it was him and Jones, or him and Wallace, and Wallace looks like a walking red card at times and just doesn't do it for me playing more central.

Why Loovens ? Do u want a cup run ? He's a liability and would put the young lads under pressure with his stupid decisions, lack of pace and sideways passing time to move on from him now

I don’t think he’s a liability. He has lost a yard and was not the player he was but in the center Of a back 3 think he’s good enough. 

Thornley and Clare cup tied. O’Grady on the bench.

       Boyd Pelupessy reach

       

                 Matias Joao

 

Matias links with mids and runs channels, better from fox but maybe penneys turn for a chance, more energy and mobility in boyd and pessi hopefully.

 

Cup runs only thing left this season so lets go all out for win with strongest side

The difference with Loovens this season is that he has started panicking.

He has always remained cool even when exposed but in the Vydra incident, the Kung fu at Ipswich and the two tackles at the sty he lost his cool.

 

Especially the two at the sty. He could have stayed on his feet but panicked, afraid of getting exposed for pace. Can’t play if he is going to panic all the time.

Wildsmith

Venancio  - Pudil - Thornily

Hunt - Pelupussy - Boyd - Jones - Reach

Rhodes - Matias

 

Thought the back 3 did well on saturday against one of the better sides in the league. Loovens is available, but is a weak link imo.

Thornily looked alright after an early jitter.

Pelupessy and Jones would give the wide men more license to get forward. and Boyd seems the best option to link with the forwards.

Rhodes was good on Saturday and Matias looked lively again when he came on.

                              Dawson

              Venancio Loovens O'Grady

                   Pelupessy   Jones

                      Nuhiu        Matias

 

Be a little more adventurous with Boyd linking the midfield and strikers.  He should have the energy to get back into a midfield 3 as well if required.  Rest Pudil and Reach.  It's a throw up between Joao and Nuhiu, but as an impact if we are chasing the game I would say Joao is a better bet.  Loovens owes us a game.  Maybe a game for Penney, but those who have seen him play more than me will know whether he is up to it.

 

I did wonder whether we could see this...it would be a free go at 4-2-3-1 with more attacking threat but it all depends on how much they want the FA Cup.  There would be only one youngster in Penney and he might give Aluko more to do defensively.

but if the manager plays a basically B  team then it's hardly high on his  priority so you can understand why the fans would think the same . 

From what I've seen so far, not sure Jos looks at it as a "B" team. Looks like everyone is worthy of a place. Can't say that anyone that has featured in the last 3 matches has done anything wrong.
