ChaddesdenRam Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I think Jeff has scored 4 goals in 5 games. Can't be dropped with that form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsRam Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Hendrick to start - Hughes to come on when the old divas of QPR are knackered...weeeeee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gypsy Ram Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Ball retention - Hughes has to start. Hendrick, although all powerful and direct, he does tend to lose the ball now and again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papahet Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Wouldn't change it to be honest. Bringing Bryson on the 60-70th would really worry QPR with the tiring players, why drop Hughes? He'd be beaming with confidence after the goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mafiabob Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Right ok what can I say other than I don't agree and Steve won't do it I am certain the more I think about it he will go with Thorne , Hendrick and Bryson the real engine room of the team. You are probably right on reflection, just me being a t i t which isn't hard! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambitious Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 When does Ben Davies come back from Sheffield United... Anyway, it's Thorne and Bryson who're almost guaranteed to start - Hughes and Hendrick is almost unpickable at the minute. I thought Hughes was fantastic in the second leg, Hendrick didn't do much wrong though. If we're looking to impose OUR game on them, then we should go with Hughes. If we're looking to compete on a more physical side, in a tight game, I would go with Hendrick. Personally, I would go with Hughes first off - it signals our intention to impose ourselves. Although, I must admit Hendrick should be made available to be brought on at any time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott_dcfc Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Thorne Hendrick and Hughes for me. The team is winning, playing well, why change it? Bryso to come on with 30 left if we're losing or drawing. 20 if we're winning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CornwallRam Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Play 442 - with Hendrick and Hughes in the middle with Bryson wide left and Coutts wide right. And tactically we should defend deep and try to hold on for penalties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valleyram Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 there shouldn't even be a debate about it , thorne hendrick and bryso are our best midfield 3 , wills day will come but hes not as good as those 3 right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott129 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Barton's going to be up to his usual dirty tricks and we all know Hughes doesn't cope that well when faced with that kind of gameplan. Hendrick will give it back just as good, not to mention the goal threat he brings. So Thorne, Hendrick and Bryson for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyHudson Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I think Hughes more than held his own against Barton. In fact I recall him out-muscling him and coming away with the ball beautifully at one point. Still, nice to have Hendrick as a more physical option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daaave Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 If this was FM I'd stick with the 3 that swept aside Brighton. But it's not, so given the responsibility I'd probably piss myself and faint before I could complete the team sheet. In reality as long as Thorne plays I'm happy with any combination of Hughes, Bryson and Jeff in front of him and won't be second guessing Schteve's selection one way or the other come 7pm Saturday 24th.

Gary Teale Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Why have we started worrying what Barton does? Its a tough call, but for me Hughes adds somthing different to Hendrick and Bryson and we keep the ball better with him and him and thorne seem to link up well.

Barton's a very good midfielder by Championship standards, but is a) not as energetic, as industrious or with the eye for goal of Bryson b) nowhere near as good a passer and lacking the vision of Hughes c) not as strong defensively as Thorne.

cannable Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Taking the size of the pitch into consideration; Thorne, Hughes, Bryson. Bryson constantly making those runs in behind with Thorne and Hughes finding much more space and time to pick him out, I reckon that could be potentially devastating.

Ramstar14 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Thorne - Bryson - Hendrick. Can see QPR being much more physical than Brighton and think these 3 would be better suited to dealing with that tactic. Definitely bringing Hughes on in the second half to get those balls in behind Hill and Dunne who will struggle if we attack with the pace we are capable of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky1884 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I just cant see steve changing a winning team not his thing so hughes thorne and hendrick for me. Its unlucky for bryson but dont think ill be wrong id be shocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Vegas Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Thorne - Absolutely no question over this. He's the best DM in the Championship and he will start. Bryson - You can't ignore his goals and assist, he simply has to start as he's the most liekly to find the net. Hughes - We'll need a player to keep the ball and he's the best out of it to do so. As for Hendrick, he's more powerful but he's the sort of player that Barton would thrive upon about drawing fouls and needless yellow cards. He's excellent at the iPro, but for an away game I think he's the weakest of the three. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
