Under the current circumstances of injuries and form, that back 5 almost picks itself for a start. The only places where Monk has a number of options are up front and out wide, and it's not like we have people spectacularly out-performing anyone else there either whereby the selections are obvious.

Didn't Lee and FF play at Wembley plus Dave on the bench? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's nothing especially revolutionary about that line-up. Bannan, Lees and Wickham all took a good deal of criticism during the week and the manager has dropped them for players in the same position. Had he not done so, no doubt he would have been slagged off for that instead. Whether the squad are on Monk's side or care about the club and it's supporters are different matters. You've been on Owlstalk long enough to know how it works: everything must be reduced to a binary decision. You either rate a player or you don't. A manager is either in or out - there's no room for shades of grey here. Some have decided that Monk's bad, therefore everything Monk ever does is bad.

No grumbles from me on that. I’m just fed up knowing no matter who plays we will waste another 90 mins knocking stupid long balls for it to come back for the entire game. My post isn't aimed necessarily at who he's picked, more that he chops & changes the back line every week. One of the keys to not conceding is a settled back line. For what it's worth I'd have gone with Odubajo rather than the young lad. If we concede early the atmosphere could get toxic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus change Bannans role, do something to stop him being a spectator, anything rather than play Pelupessy in preference You can't change his role. Bannan is a law unto himself. That's the point.

I'm fascinated by human psychology. I've seen this pattern repeat itself so many times, and not just at this club. Personally, I don't like the idea that my attitudes and opinions might be so easily subject to such predictable and simplistic principles, but maybe that's just me?

I thought Monk might do alright here but who was I kidding? If Westwood wasn't such a knob then he would be starting, Joey, may not be the answer but he is always available, gives his all and obviously does what his boss asks. The fact they are both available for selection should warrant our support. 3-1 reading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Farrell Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Have we ever been so far away from knowing what our best 11 is ? I honestly don't think anyone has a clue. Mad times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
