AmericanRam Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Well under Symons Fulham has really started to get their stuff together, and this one will not be as easy as perhaps some thought when the draw occurred. I look for a very hard fought match, with us nicking a late goal and winning 2-1. I would assume Mac will light a fire up the squad's arses after the Wigan performance, so interested to see how we do in that regard. With Butland being cup tied, Roos will get the start and I am confident he can do a good job. In regards to the other starting xi? I easily see Omar starting this one, regardless of Eustace scoring(still wide-eyed about that), and I think Hendrick will also. As for the wings, I see Dawks getting a start, and I would like JR to as well. Shots imo should start at CB also. Did not play good today at all as has been said, but I am confident we can win this and move on in the cup. Fulham will come ready to play though, and we have to do the same in matching their intensity and enthusiasm, as we did not do against Wigan. COYR!

Carl Sagan Posted October 25, 2014 Author Share Posted October 25, 2014 I think the team will be: Roos (easy decision with Butland cuptied) Christie Keogh Buxton (time to bring him back, with Whitbread not doing enough and Shotton ill) Forsyth Omar (another run out as we search for the spark without Thorne) Bryson Hendrick (always needs a run of games when coming back from injury) Russell Best (I would send him back, but he's been our League Cup starter and I expect Mac will do the same again) Dawkins That would be 6 changes, which is pretty much what we've done in the previous rounds. On the bench II'd go with: Mitchell (GK) Lowe (let's see what this "future star" can do and give Fozzy some competition) Shotton (if he's fit to play, or Hanson if not) Martin Calero Ibe Coutts Give Hughes, Eustace and Whitbread a rest. In the unlikely event we score goals without Martin, give him a rest on the bench too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-JW- Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Fulham are on fire, still on their honeymoon period and their bigger names are starting to really play well. I'm fearing the worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ewe Ram Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Glad Roos will play. Harsh on him not to give him a go and bring in a keeper who can't kick a ball down the middle of the pitch. Whitbread's a no for me, he couldn't pass forward either. Leon Best's best position is sat at home on his sofa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have very few streams over there mate, that's why they keep advertising for water aid. There is a fantastic joke here you could do with Wiziwig but even I know when to draw the line. I am hoping to meet a few forum guys before the game. I will see if we can get Daveo's new chant for you going during the match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambitious Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 I can honestly say I have never seen a 2-0 hammering. Team: Roos; Christie, Keogh, Buxton, Forsyth; Mascarell, Hendrick, Bryson; Dawkins, Russell, Martin. Mitchell, Whitbread, Coutts, Hughes, Calero, Ibe and Best Score: Fulham 0-2 Derby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuff264 Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 RYAN Shotton is set to return to the Derby County squad for Tuesday night's Capital One Cup fourth round tie against Fulham - but striker Leon Best is a doubt. Shotton missed Saturday's Championship fixture against Wigan Athletic due to illness but trained with the Rams on Monday. However, Best is now feeling unwell and faces a late check on his fitness as to whether he will be involved at Craven Cottage. The front man, on loan from Blackburn Rovers, started against Reading in the previous round of the competition. As previously reported, midfielder Paul Coutts is due to be part of the squad following his return from a hip injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North_Stand_Ram Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 I can honestly say I have never seen a 2-0 hammering Gus Poyet said Sunderland were worse in their 2-0 loss at Norwich last season than they were in their 8-0 drubbing at Southampton, somehow! Anyway. 1-1, Derby lose on pens. Weakfish team played by McClaren. Would like to see Buxton, Coutts and Dawkins start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
