yeadonowl Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 The way both Borner and Van Aken have played so far I’d be tempted to give Shaw a game at right centre half with Iorfa moved to the left and Lees in the middle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kagoshimaowl Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Why does everyone pick Penney? One decent game against Walsall and that’s it.

Would fall over his own legs. Some players can play both sides, unfortunately neither him or Lees can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shezzas left peg Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I think most of the first 11 really picks its self. Though I'd like to see us try starting with the 2 of most natural wingbacks we have available. Give penney and Odd-job a run of games. Bit of last chance saloon for me for the latter. Maybe try Windass alongside Patterson up top first half and if it's not working being Kachunga on. and I don't think we've been as bad as some are making out. Cardiff away is always a tough one. Followed by a relagated side at home, then onto a playoff contender in Bristol away. Not the easiest of starts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also would play a 4- 4-1-1 we don't have wing back we have full backs and we only have 1 recognised striker at the club so we have to play an attacking link midfielder in there Wildsmith/Dawson - New championship quality keeper Penney, Borner, Iorfa, Palmer Reach, Brown, Luongo, Kachunga Windass Rhodes Not a strong team but we don't have the options we had last season. So you would drop Bannan and Lees , play Borner yet have the audacity to complain about Monk’s team selections.

Dutch McLovin Posted September 28, 2020 Author Share Posted September 28, 2020 1 hour ago, GLOwl said: He did indeed have a mare for us last season. I don't think he is a good full back at all, far too often caught out of position and way too rash at tackling. On the wing attacking the opposition full back, and told not to enter our penalty area at all then yes he can play well. I thought he played well against Fulham last week, looked a genuine threat. I would have put him on yesterday once we went a goal down as he is able to, on a good day, make things happen. But did you see him play full back prior to playing for us ? He never looked rash or out of position then. For some reason at us it all went down hill. However he's looked decent when playing this season as you say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emilianenko Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Lets go back to the team that did okay in the first two league games. Still not sure why Palmer and Kachunga were brought in after their performances against Fulham. IT WASN'T BROKEN, THERE WAS NO NEED TO FIX IT. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Sunburn Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 A lot of good formations from all of you managers. Hard to debate. Just goes to show there’s more agreement than not. Fans believe in this squad. I truly believe Owls will beat QPR with GM’s 3-5-2. Maybe tinker some but no wholesale changes. Players are onboard with GM & staff. Saturday can’t come soon enough for me. UTO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bannan has this untouchable thing with some, Brown is proving to be a better player, Lees has done ok but in a back 2 he struggles and often create more problems. So yes playing a back 4 I would drop Lees for Borner who when partner with Iorfa is the best back two paring at the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks a shadow of the player he was at the start of last season. Can only assume he has a long term injury issue impacting his game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreshOwl Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 (edited) We haven’t got the quality to play with wingbacks. Time isn’t on our side to allow it to work, we needs points ASAP. I’d switch it up with a narrow 4-3-3 or 4-3-1-2 Dawson Palmer Iorfa Lees Penney Luongo Reach. Bannan Brown Patterson. Windass Palmer & Penney can overlap when necessary Edited September 28, 2020 by FreshOwl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before Monk started messing with the line up last season Borner and Iorfa were developing into a great back to in a 4-4-2 formation. But as we know Monk like to put his stamp on the team and since then we have concede too many soft goals with defensive lapses. For me we need a back 4 we don't have wing backs at the club we have full backs the longer he persists with 3-5-2 the longer we will continue to be massively inconsistent and as soon as we concede the back line with Lees and JVA in looks so brittle. Borner is a solid performer but like a lot of players you cannot keep dropping him every other game and expecting him to perform. The best team in the league have a settled back line of their best players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
