OwlBiSeeinThi Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 6 hours ago, hugeowl said: Most teams we play pay special attention to BB , every manager knows how influential he is , shame some of our fans don’t realise his worth I've not seen any comments on this thread suggesting he's overrated. I was merely pointing out the last few games he's given the ball away cheaply more times than I can remember him ever doing before. That's why I commented. It's so unlike him. He's absolute class, but we also heavily rely on him and I reckon that weighs on him when things aren't quite going to plan on the pitch. I can't fault his effort but he goes a little headless chicken then tries to do everything. That's when we lose our shape a bit. It's a team game. Sometimes you have to trust your fellow professionals to do their job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More solid defencive platform of hutch & loungo. Plus it gives us loungo's runs in and around the box getting on the end of things and hope for some creativity from the wings. Though I'm more inclined to think well revert back to the 4-3-3 /4-5-1 due to being derby away. In which case bazza can hopefully ping a few long counter attacking balls out to the wings.

striker Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Monk has already said he's going to rotate to use the squad. Bannan isn't immune from that, Lee or Luongo are capable replacements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinnishOwl Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 I'd very much like to have Luongo get that full 90+Fergie minutes for once. He's a good player and needs some game time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen so many players collapse to the floor at the end of a match as what did on Saturday. They looked absolutely knacked. Probably relieved not to have conceded in the last two minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even when he was at the top of his game for us. the club has changed since carlos days gone is the joke where forestieri is too big a player and decides he don't warm up at half time when the other 6 do ,now he has to. id like club to take a stance he needs to come in every day for treatment if he is injured including days where we play games away ,he will want to go to argentina and Italy over xmas that shouldn't be allowed ,I used to be a huge fan of him but playing 20% of time in 2 years and lasting a few mins this season in yet another total flop of a season regards him . regards him going in January who would pay his upwards of 35k a week? for doing nothing or will he suddenly jump up from ground like those cheats in premier league and suddenly be playing every game for his loan club knowing that he will be looking to get a new 2 year deal somewhere?

Dutch McLovin Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 No way will he rest/drop Bannan. I would but it wont happen. On tele aswell he would need to break his leg for him not to play. Id go Lee and Luongo in a 442. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're quite reliant on Bannan... if he's in risk of injury, I'd save him for Saturday, rather stick on Luongo, Lee, Fessi (if fit), Reach, Hutch... we've got plenty of cover; not with Bannan's keen eye and ability to pick out players with excellent balls slicing through opposition, but looking at just the names of those 5, they're all great players too. Nuhiu on the bench, would rather play Fletcher/Rhodes combo up front again and see how that could work from start, better than Nuhiu from start anyway. Risk 3 at the back with Iorfa, Lees and Börner with Fox and Harris out the wings of 5 in the middle? Crazy strat away to Derby, I know, but fizz it, it's only a football stadium and 11 players on the other side too.. no need to go out too defensive ;) FF worse injury than feared according to the Star, not sure on timeframe though.

He's been off it a bit the last two or three games. Give luongo and Lee a run out in the middle. OwlBiSeeinThi but it won't be at the coaches Christmas Party !
