Away win. Russell to score. Yeah thought so, wouldn't change the winning team tbf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RamsFan10 Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 People saying it's harsh to change the team... a profession football manager should be able to put the team he thinks is best suited to winning the game out every week, and as an experienced pro Russell should understand and accept any tactical decision. If Russell would upset the dressing room if dropped then he shouldn't be a player we want to have at all. And if Gary thinks we have a better chance of winning with Russell in I'd be concerned. Hes trained almost all week with them now, Lawrence will be as assimilated to the squad as he's going to be without him playing. He actually has to play to get used to the style.

Doodle Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Lawrence won't be match fit, but the only way to get there is to play matches. I would have started him and take him off when he tires. It must be terrible for the likes of Bennett and Anya to watch Russell play so poorly, yet retain his place. It's not good for the team, the squad or even the player himself to keep picking him. Apart from that, happy enough with the team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andicis Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Don't think Russell justified his starting place from his performance on Tuesday. However, that's the squad, and let's hope we can win. If we win this game then our start has been quite a decent one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe thinks it will be good for the confidence of players? Or maybe he thinks if players keep their shirt if they win then it will give them a boost? Or maybe he has watched Lawrence this week and doesn't think he's ready to start? Or maybe he thinks with the system he has chosen JR is better suited?

jimbo jones Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 I'm not hugely surprised Lawrence hasn't been thrown straight in. I expect him to be sent on with the instructions, play yourself into the starting line up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jourdan Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Smart decision by Rowett. Keep a winning team while they are winning. It also allows you to have players on the bench in Martin and Lawrence who will be motivated to impress and can change the game if we need them to. If we are honest, it is likely to be a stay of execution for Russell, Weimann and Nugent. But if we are winning football matches, why change it?

Sparkle Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 No surprise for me, although I would have preferred Forsyth at left back. Lawrence will come on at some point and he will do better than wieman or Russell or he won't and being a sub reduces the pressure on him as he is not match fit or may not fully understand how the manager wants to use him yet.

ossieram Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 I can't be bothered to read the posts since the team was announced, can somebody please tell me if there was a meltdown from the I want it now brigade over the news that Russell is in the starting 11?
