I'd argue that'd be Bennett's strongest position - not that I think that justifies dropping (an albeit out of form) Marriott for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViewsFromTheMiddle Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 That team selection gives a sense we have someone who doesn’t know what they’re doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nottingram Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 I really struggle to understand the obsession with Marriott and the frustration when he is taken out of the team. You take out a patch of about ten games last season, and then what? I’m not saying he’s rubbish but it is honestly like we’ve dropped Cristiano Ronaldo the way some go on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Performances definitely picked up since we changed to it. We only played the diamond for one and a half games. We were definitely better when using it, but the Bennett change doesnt necessarily mean we are moving away from it. His best position is more central rather than on the wing after all. Having said that i fully expect us to give our "wingers" another chance today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People on twitter with the "Why would you change the 2 up front?!" Well, maybe perhaps because in the last game we scored 0 goals and the two up front missed multiple good chances?

Nuwtfly Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Mason Bennett must be doing things in training. Did not see that one coming. Shame no youth players are on the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimmu Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Great to see Forsyth back playing, pleased for him! I totally understand dropping Marriott but not replacing him with Waggy is harder one to get... So most likely hattrick by Bennett. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parsnip Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Does this line up indicate that Cocu is very much wanting 4-3-3? Which means we can probably expect wingers in January? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, maybe perhaps because in the last game we scored 0 goals and the two up front missed multiple good chances? I’m sure I saw a stat saying Marriott had scored once in X games with X being somewhere in the 20’s I couldn’t be bothered to check it but it seems like it might be legit Definitely not good enough to warrant this nonsense reaction every time he’s left out the team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCG Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 I'm flummoxed by the decision to leave Marriott out. How on earth is Marriott ever going to get back to full match fitness and sharpness when he is consistently left out? The decision to include Forsyth is understandable, although we know Evans can do a job there, and his fitness levels are probably higher at this level at the moment.
