I have literally no idea where our goals are coming from this season bar set pieces and long range hits from the midfielders. Just not bothered...

N0rtherner Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 All this obsession about 0 strikers, it's not like fielding Rhodes means we'll score more anyway. I'll take Izzy playing forward over Rhodes right now anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Just now, @owlstalk said: Being saved for the Cardiff game mate Sensible management Which further supports the fact we should have signed at least one striker by now. I see Bannan and Brown are playing, they will be crucial to the way we play and have no direct replacements but we aren't saving them for the Cardiff game. Monk has little faith in Rhodes, justifiably so perhaps, but all the more reason to have made a striker a priority. Other clubs in our division with small resources have managed to bring in forwards who would have improved upon what we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emilianenko Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 I would suspect Brown is playing up front and will bag a couple today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerson Thome Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 I reckon Dawson being picked suggests he's first choice. It's not like we have an established first choice keeper so we use the cups to give the guy who never plays a chance. Rest of the XI is close to first XI, save for one or two recent signings who aren't fit yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the thing for me I have zero issues or concerns with the starting lineup or Rhodes not playing but I do have some real concerns about our goalkeeping department (And no I'd not have Westwood back under any circumstances before the usual lot start chirping up) I hope the new goalkeeper coach improves these lads we have because it really does need it Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet not one single other squad member is 'narked' about Rhodes wages Those days are gone Monk has shipped out all those who would get narked (whilst being on Instagram at the same time) New era - squad mentality now Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beauchief Owl Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Not ideal, but a fairly strong team today. Would like to have seen Dunkley and Kachunga involved but best get them up to full speed first. Ought to be enough to win IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
