oldishowl Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Tactics are interesting for this. Are we going to try and take the game to them the way we have the last two games or are we going to be more cautious, sit back and soak it up a la Jos, but not quite as bad. If we are going toe to toe which I think Bruce will then I am not sure Fox is up to it. We have seen the back 4 playing with a lot more aggression and dynamism. Doesn’t sound like Fox to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S72 Owl Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 If go with Palmer. Iorfa at right back. Think Fox is too slow and could struggle against there overlapping CBS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleeder Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 7 hours ago, boxing_day said: Palmer at lb and iorfa at rb. Fox is the slowest of the 3 and with the way united overlap he can’t start, as he’ll get caught out. Agree with this mate. Fox's lack of pace is scary. Against a side like them lot I think he would really struggle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TodwickOwl Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Fox isn’t upto the job against Blades Stick Thorniley there - a LOT more solid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walt Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Get the impression that Bruce has been busting a gut to get Iorfa involved. Palmer's impressive run of form has meant that it would be very harsh to drop him and play Iorfa at right back. I think Bruce will do the same as last night and switch Palmer to LB and Iorfa to RB. Shame about Lazar (sp?) as he gave us something different. Our full backs and wide players are key imo playing when we play the grunters...at both ends of the pitch. The shithouses like to overload the oppositions fullbacks but do leave themselves short at the back to a pacy counter attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otley Owl Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 The Forestieri stuff on this thread is utterly bizarre. Wittering, laughable nonsense. Sticking to the thread, gutted if Lazaar is, as is likely, ruled out. He looked very good last night, and by all accounts in the previous game. Palmer at left back for me, played equally well at LB and RB. Iorfa should be very close to match fit for right back. Fox if fit gives the other stable option at LB.

He doesn’t stop enough crosses and gets constantly caught out of position. I’d rather see Pudil there. Even though he's played in the last two derbies and kept a clean sheet?

Fox or Palmer for me to answer the question Wow! Forestieri is due a couple of goals. I can see him being the hero, or my names not Jack the Hat Mcvitie!

Ronio Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 For me I would go with Palmer at left back, Iorfa on the right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyingOwl Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I’d say Palmer. He played well last night there and, mainly, I wanna see Iorfa at right back. But not at the expense of dropping an in form Palmer. So this works for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

legendaryswan Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 (edited) Fox,hes played really well of late,and his two outings at the lane hes done really well. I can see the sentiment off playing young carlton down the left,but hes not suited there.its a headache we could have done without,Iorfa looks like quite some player but you cant knock Palmer since Jos left,hes been a star turn the past few weeks,and I was never a fan of his at all but hes made me eat mi words so good on the kid long may it continue Edited February 27, 2019 by legendaryswan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gypsyowl Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 anyone else think Palmer is just playing for a contract like atty or what, why has he suddenly turned a reyt full back!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kagoshimaowl Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 (edited) I still wonder if Bruce will be tempted to play a back 3 and match them up. I don’t think he will because of how good we’ve been in last two games but it is tempting. If it’s a four as I’d expect it will be Fox if he’s fit but I’d put Palmer there with Iorfa at right back.
