Imo that is the strongest line up we can put out, and I wouldn't want a weakened changed team for this game, although tbf you could leave Bent and Baird in and it wouldn't make a lot of difference to the overall quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, Johnson who tackles and heads the ball like a one man army can't do anything with the ball when he gets it. My preference is for quality on the ball over brute force. I get why some fans prefer it the other way. I want Johnson in my team for his physical presence in both boxes. Not sure he gets forward enough but then nobody does anymore sadly. Bryson presses but does little else IMO (Yes good assist to Ince but anyone should be able to make that pass) and Butterfield is so horizontal he is planking. So who is the best to partner Hughes? Hhmm. Million dollar question. That is such a good post. (Because I think that too ) i want to stick with De Saart .. He has some vision and wants to play the forward ball. He isn't strong, that's pretty obvious but I suspect he will get fitter and more confident. We lacked muscle in midfield, Will can't do that and create at the same time ( although I am amazed at how Will has gained a flame hardened core in the last 12 months ) he needs a strong man and a ball winner with him and I vote for Johnno too. Butterfield is technically good has a bit of everything but no seriously strong area. Bryson, well yes, he looked a bit better late on Saturday, but I can't help feeling against a top side he is going to struggle with a certain lack of physicality and his pace is 5% off what it was 2 years ago. What price Elsnik on the bench ? And have we seen Hanson and Hughes ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inverurie Ram Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Wonder if she"ll be wearing a half and half scalf?, as she'll get plenty of footage on the BBC as she sits next to the dug out, she needs to dug out what she's wearing here, I do believe she wore it to raise money for charity.

Hhmm. Million dollar question. Johnson is certainly a big asset in both boxes but one thing I'm concerned with when he's played further forward (besides the lack of quality on the ball) is whether he has the athleticism to go box to box and break beyond the forward line ? To play that role effectively you need to have a bit of pace and be supremely athletic in order to make those surging off the ball runs, getting beyond the forward line.
