Ramarena Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 Such a shame for Thorne and us, but these things happen in football. I had big hopes for him for next season, this would have been the first full season of his career to date. Once he got that under his belt with a good pre-season, I hoped he return to the player we saw in the playoff 2 years ago. He's done well this season but his form/fitness has been a bit up and down at times, which is to be expected given his lack of games/type of injury he's had over the last few years. We will miss his defensive qualities, but it's not over, we still have Butters, Hendrick and Johnson, all talented players who bring different qualities to the table. IMO if Hughes and Bryson are nailed on starters, then Johnson needs to play if fit. Hull have a physically strong midfield, so I would put BJ in to help combat that, whilst Hughes and Bryson can easily out manoeuvre them. Not ideal, but Wassall needs to come up with a plan for the 3 CM's compensating for not having a natural CDM and hammer it home on the training ground.

Bradley certainly did well the last time we played them so I'd be inclined to start him if fit. I know we could go with Butterfield and have young Will sit in but I's prefer the steel of Bradley for this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimmu Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 Heading skills or ability to tackle is just bit different things than height... Otherwise Sammon should've been better than Ward in the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 4 hours ago, philmycock said: We really do need Hughes further upfield, gotta be Baird at CDM surely, or Johnson perhaps, or Butterfield, just not Will I agree that we need him further upfield but the team itself is a lot worse off with one of the others holding in my opinion. Butterfield is too lightweight and is actually pretty bad defensively. I wouldn't mind Johnson in there but you have to wonder how fit he actually is. He didn't even make the bench on Saturday and to then go and play, what you'd presume would be, two full games in four days seems like a big ask. Baird hardly set the world alight when with Fulham either. The thing is, that position is so key. Particularly in transition. I don't think the others have the positional awareness or discipline to play it well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rammieib Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 Will may be 6'1 but his heading prowess is about the same as a nun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was correct but it did not help that much. Best ever was someone that I know when we were fitting a carpet in a van. I asked him what the gap was and he replied that it was 'a small amount of distance'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
