S72 Owl Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Think it’s time to get back to a back four until we sign some proper wing backs. Id bring Palmer back and play Pudil left back. Tell them not to bomb forward at every opportunity. Keep a solid back four in place. Keep Jones in front of them and allow Bannan, Reach, FF and Matias to use there energy and mix it up a bit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feelthepayne Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I'd also go with a 4, but Pudil at left back haunts me I'd go Dawson Palmer Lees Pudil Thornielly Boyd Bannan Hutchinson Reach Fletcher Forestieri Wildsmith Baker Nielson Preston Jones Nuhiu Matias Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We played a back four Sunday pal, made zero difference what so ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SallyCinnamon Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Dawson Baker Lees Pudil Thorniley Boyd Jones Bannan Reach Forestieri Fletcher Subs: Wildsmith, Palmer, Hutchinson, Pelupessy, Penney, Matias, Joao Back to basics. Players playing in their natural position. Worth a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 (edited) Be nice if we had a new signing or 3 in place. Very doubtful though. Wish we could make wholesale changes from the team that played on Sunday. Would drop Pessy and Nuhiu for starters. Would love Reach to be back. Really missed him. No chance but I wish Jos would see sense and put Westwood back in the net, even just for his leadership qualities. Only chance of that happening imo is if we get rid of Jos.

Bexy1977 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Why is everyone putting Fletcher ahead of Nuhiu. Nuhiu is in form, although he was poor Saturday. When did Fletcher last have a good game and he missed sitters against Hull. Got to play Westwood to give defence confidence for me too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he missed three good chances but on another day they go in. Im a fan of Nuhui but not seen him have a good game either this season yet.

Lord Snooty Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Won't see it. But I'd do this. Very keen to get another look at the left back. If it's all a bit much then I'd send Reach back there and give the Kirby lad a run in alongside Baz in front of Hutch. And yes...I know, I know. "How's Boyd got in there. He was terrible other night" etc etc I'm just keen to see what he can do in a role he knows, and we know, that he's a very good and proven player in.

His quality , IMO, work to the optimum in a pairing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StudentOwl Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 At the risk of being overtly negative, I can't see what people see in Thorniley... I haven't seen much of the lad so I can only assume that Brentford was an anomaly because he really really struggled and it did look like men against boys at times. On that (perhaps highly unfair) basis: Westwood Hutch Lees JvA Baker Pelupessy Reach Bannan Forestieri Matias Fletcher Get players like Hutch and van Aken who are willing to play those forward passes on so that when our spine does ball retention passes we can capitalise instead of just doing more ball retention. Reach provides a deep forward thrust (oo-er) and Baker doesn't seem to mind getting forward when he can. One defensive midfielder in Pelupessy, let Bannan boss that midfield creative role with runners from deep and a Forestieri that will drop back to receive the ball and find pockets of space. Matias provides a bit of movement and pace for everyone to aim for too. I still reckon three at the back is best for the players we've currently got at our disposal, but ffs let's throw some positivity and attacking intent into it.
