JJ always turned in a few good performances before his contract expired. FF is the new JJ Maybe,maybe not. FF has had plenty of patches where he comes good for a period and it looks like he has got his mojo back. It usually doesn't last long because of a ban, injury or because something upsets him. It could just be that he's glad to be on the pitch again or as you say he's playing for a contract here or elsewhere. If he is playing for a contract maybe he can get us back in to contention for the play offs. Him on form and the 3 new arrivals playing well could be the spark we need.

Kanye West Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Chuck them both in next weekend with Wickham, what harm can it do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McRightSide Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Da Cruz looked taller than I expected, would like to see him partner Wickham next week. I’d go back to Murphy and Reach on the wings to make sure we get some quality delivery, and I’d have FF off the bench whilst he gets up to speed. If Luongo is still nursing a broken nail then I’d have Windass in alongside Bannan. My guess is Monk will be more fearful of a strong Barnsley side and therefore try to ensure the we need to nullify their ample attacking capabilities - so we’ll see 5 in the middle, with the hapless JP again featuring - and Wickham upfront by himself and dealing with 80 yard howitzers from Dawson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 (edited) These 2 and Iorfa where more or less the only positives today. Would love them and Wickham to start against Barnsley. Maybe even fit Windass in as well. Edited February 1, 2020 by WalthamOwl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose it all goes on how they train, and gel with the team but we certainly can’t get much more ineffective, Barnsley are weak, they won’t be able to train for those changes are thread bear at back I’d really throw them all in my guess is Fessi ( fitness ) and windass ( two many changes which I don’t agree with it just change it ) will start on the bench with Harris and either Murphy or reach playing in the wider position to be honest it’s more than enough with the other two coming off the bench to finish Barnsley off if I see a winnal rhodes or nuihiu start I’d be dissapointed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djorkaeff Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 if I see a winnal rhodes or nuihiu start I’d be dissapointed — so would I. We’ve tried that all season and it doesn’t work. I’d sooner twist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spookone Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 FF made a positive difference when he came on, brings an energy and drive and some of the little touches shows his quality - the issue is his injury record and attitude at times. I would love a fit FF in the team. Da Cruz looked quick and full of trickery and judging by his past has a bit of an edge to his play. 2 positives in a fairly bland game, add W + W to the mix and we may still have an outside chance at top 6?

vulva Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 If the club fall for the FF ‘i’ve played really well and done a few heart signs to the crowd routine to get a new contract’ they won’t be getting my season ticket money to fund said contract.

Adam Reachs left peg Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Ff looked interested for once da cruz looked decent and with windass and Wickham to come in could be a breath of fresh air for the team, looking at our next few fixtures there games we should be winning but it's Wednesday so we won't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beauchief Owl Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 It's more noticeable when you see a young lad like Da Cruz moving, how lacking in pace we've been up front. Of course he was only on for a small part of the game and he may not be able to sustain it over 90 minutes, but he looked much more of a threat today than several of our other strikers have provided recently.
