WorrallOwl17 Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 BPF Dean Hutch Storey Hunt Bashiru Luongo Bannan Mendez Laing Windass Gregory Plenty of options from the bench, Pato/John-Jules can come in for a centre midfielder and play as a front 3, Johnson and Palmer are options at wing back to keep it fresh. Wouldn't go gung ho with Windass in the 10 behind a front 2 just yet, but definitely up front with Gregory from the start 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victorturner Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 DM has shown a keenness to bring in a lot players for the last six months, not all of whom are going to be playing, without ever showing that he wants to build up teamwork and give all of them a regular role. He is right about getting a tall, good in the air centre back but two? And as with Jules he now seems to be remaking the team front and back. Do we soon get told in February it will take two months for the new players to get to know each others’ play? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quickly Kevin Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Will be interesting to see if DM will stick to his 3-5-2. With his new signings he may do but he seems to have a lot of faith in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn't be a very good answer if we left him out, would it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mosborough-owl Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Think it’s a bit harsh just to drop palmer. He’s been one of our better players this season, and I can’t remember him doing anything wrong to warrant getting dropped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prowl Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Bannan in a midfield 2 never seems to gave worked very well in my opinion. Maybe it will with Luongo's quality. Moore could have brought in 2 CB's to provide cover in case of injuries and to enable us to rotate players rather than to use as a 3. I doubt it though, I think it will be 3 at the back for the rest of the season. I can't really see where John Jules fits in. Gregory and Windass look nailed on starters.

The coach Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 We are goin to be all over the shop again with a million changes and subs.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striker Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Our best lineup at the moment IMO. Can interchange, Storey, John-Jules as required, plus Johnson at LB if we need a left footer. I'd much rather have wide players high up the pitch, running the channels and pushing us up the pitch, rather than being in our own half pretending to be wingbacks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Dean signs, Palmer's not one of our strongest three centre backs, so he doesn't start there, plus he's behind Hunt and Mendez-Laing at wingback, so he's probably backup there. He's a good option to have in the squad, but if everyone's fit, he's on the bench for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the reason for the change to 352, so I think it's pretty relevant to this discussion. Why don't you further the discussion and tell me why I'm wrong? Play the ball, not the man.

Big Jack Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Tbh honest we lack presence in both boxes, DH will be asset at corners at both ends of the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kept moving Pato closer and closer from the RW to help. He played Pato with him for the Wigan game, we scored 2. Went back to 4231, he got taken off v Oxford at half time, again, shocking. Next game, we're play 352 v Bolton. He scores, we win. We had a full strength defence at the time. Iorfa, Dunkley, Hutch, Palmer, even Gibson for a few minutes. So how was it about injuries?
