Rambalin Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Thorne is has fit has he is going to get playing U23 it is far to easy for him he cruises through them because he is not pushed. Listened to Michael Johnson saying senior players find it easy and it is not a challenge for them.The only way to get the extra fitness and sharpness is first team minutes. George could give you 60 to 70 minutes because of the extra edge at first team level but would do him the world of good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kash_a_ram_a_ding_dong Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Will Hughes is having a great game for Watford....and just scored a banger. Breaks my heart he's not in a rams shirt this season....mind you he would probably have been left out! That's what we are missing.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plymouthram Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 With Ledley and Huddlestone both 30 yr olds and comments made about how shattered they looked midway through the 2nd half against Fulham. Would it be ideal to have him on the bench to come on midway through the 2nd half against QPR. If Wisdom is back in at right back, i would have Baird also on the bench. Have two fresh central midfielders on, whats your thoughts Gary ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your right he said it on Ramstv last week " I expect to get time in the first team some time this month ". After watching him Friday I'm not sure certainly didn't look right But has someone pointed out the Under23s don't stretch them Maybe risk him if we are struggling which I think we will be Expect Louonga to run the midfield and Smith to torture Davies and Keogh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However,I can see a dilemma with George.I've no doubt we want to see him get fit (and stay fit) to justify a contract extension.But on the other hand,if he were pushed too soon and broke down we could run out of time in making that judgement.Not an easy decision.

We don't need to play like Barca, just a Will Hughes type to play an advanced midfield role....its so f****** frustrating that GR could not see his ability to get the best out of potential match winners like Vydra and Lawrence. Can't help but think those two would score shed loads with Hughsey threading through balls as they make runs into the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannable Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 The signings seem to suggest a Leicester counter-attacking 4-4-2 approach. The system seems more akin to the 4-2-3-1 Nigel Clough ‘purple patch’. Honestly think a slight tinker is all the first eleven needs. Either slightly different personnel or a moderately different system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am all for George getting more game time to up his fitness. But to suggest he starts IF there is any doubt he will not last the full 90 means you are effectively starting with only 2 subs, knowing one is already needed to cover for him. I for one would go with Huddlestone/Ledley. If it works don't change unless you have to, however if we do introduce Mr Thorne, then give him a good hour or so.
