John Howard Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 At beginning of the Season when we signed midfielders, we were raving about signing Wing and mentioned in passing Byers hair style At the end of the season Wing has flown (sorry) and Byers has had a great Season,looking a proper footballer However of late he has looked jaded ,therefore best to rest him for the Play offs (Mathematically almost impossible to fail.....though we are Wednesday...)

Southie_Owl Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 I wouldn’t be surprised to see a few players (rested) on the bench tomorrow. It will be interesting how Moore decides to manage the situation 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post striker Posted April 29, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 29, 2022 A few players looked jaded of late TBH. Byers took some time to get fit, but along with Bannan and Luongo been excellent in that midfield trio. Scored some important goals too. Strongest team possible tomorrow, no room for error or complacency. Cant afford to take any chances, every game from now on like a cup final. 13 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post CircleSeven Posted April 29, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 29, 2022 Christ. Resting key players before the job in hand is done would be crazy! I could live with not winning the playoffs but failing to get there by resting players? That would be unforgivable. Anyway, even the most jaded/ knackered player is going to be walking out in front of 30,000+ Wednesdayites tomorrow. If that doesn’t wake them up nothing will! 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure he won’t take any chances as in theory could be the last game if it goes pear shaped. And DM s too ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thoughts ??? Had we needed to lose and others win with a 5 goal swing then that would be mathematically almost impossible to fail. As it stands even a draw with Pompey could leave us not getting in the playoffs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the slightest thought that we are already there would be a mistake 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deano Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 If Moore doesn't pick our best team, or what he percieves to be our best team then he deserves all the inevitable stick he would get if things went south. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S72 Owl Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Can’t see there been many tired legs in front of a sell out crowd. Got to play our best team for hopefully the next 4 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmowl Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 I think Moore has rested Byers and Luongo recently. I’d be amazed if it’s not our obvious best 3 CMs starting tomorrow. As for your ‘mathematically impossible’ can we have your name and address so we can come round to throw rotting wet veg at you Saturday afternoon if we manage to pull off the ‘impossible’? I do think that we might see the likes of Bannan, Luongo and Gregory have an early shower if a score or two elsewhere makes it genuinely near impossible not to make it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Chow Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Play your best team, resting players is an example that the job is done, our job isn’t done yet. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graz gp Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Imo we have played some of our best football with Bannan, Byers, and Luongo in midfield with Bannan playing the more forward roll. Attack them from the off and with the fans roaring them on Portsmouth won't know what's hit them. I hope. UTO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Django Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 (edited) No way can he rest players tomorrow If he does and we miss out there’ll be a sh*tstorm of biblical proportions Edited April 29, 2022 by Django Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
