Jourdan Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Strong side and surely good enough to advance. But surely after our best performance of the season, it would have made sense to keep the team the same so it can gel further and build momentum?

Dimmu Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Just now, Srg said: Diamond for me, Rooney deep with Lawrence behind the strikers. Agreed. Defend the middle and have more options to second balls when they play long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrade 86 Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Just for those who like myself have not already seen this but here's an excellent pre-game vid with Rosenior discussing the game and the processes being worked through at the club right now.

Yani P Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 BBC quality reporting as usual.... There's four changes from the side that played in the initial tie with Graeme Shinnie, Tom Lawrence, Dwayne Holes and Matt Clarke coming into the side.

MaltRam Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 I really want to see two up top, just for the grin...Martin and Marriott could be immense tonight. Suspect Marriott will start wide though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But surely after our best performance of the season, it would have made sense to keep the team the same so it can gel further and build momentum? Like it or not we're just the same as any other Championship side and we'll make changes for cup games against equal or lower level teams. You're also doing that thing again where you just assume that players are at full fitness all the time, but managing us at the minute is as much about managing our player's health with the whole season in mind as it is about picking our 'best' team. A good example being Forsyth who was excellent at LB against Stoke, but he's had 3 ACL injuries so probably can't be used in that more physically position twice in a week. Marriott started (didn't complete) 2 games in a row but that effort put him out for the next couple of games. Martin continues to battle a debilitating disease, I'm surprised to see him start, but subbing him off after an hour the other day has enabled his selection. There are more complex issues at play than some are willing to credit There are plenty of reasons to change the lineup, but the Cocu out brigade just write it off as tinkering, then use performances in matches where it's come together with everyone available and in their best position against him and claim any good performances are in spite of him. Max Bird's recent performances will be used as a point to say he should have been in the team from the off rather than used as a good example of the manager using him well and bringing him into the team more slowly. It's a bit pathetic tbh and the opposite of my idea of support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone is going to have to be rested at some point during the period I would think. It's not like he has made wholesale changes. We are at the point in the season where suspensions may start kicking in too, isn't it a good idea to get fringe players up to speed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
