Chester40 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 With the table as it is, and a possible points deduction looming over us... My analogy is that I feel like I am a 'fair few beers in' on a night out. My wing man is looking at his watch, the pub is emptying out and he's considering one more quiet here and a pizza on the way home. The gaggle of talent we spotted earlier have all left for that new bar and whilst they may not even look at us...its nice to still be in with a chance.... I mean, I know I am going to wake up with a hangover already and I may get called into work, so maybe I should knock it on its head, you know spare myself the let down, save some cash to only still end up lucking out... But.... When will we come out again? And imagine...just imagine...there is that tiny, tiny chance. Shall we not get off our backsides and have a quick look...keep the night going another hour or two.... Come on. Keep the dream alive another day!!!

RamsFan10 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 I'm glad Lowe is starting, Forsyth has looked off it in the last couple of games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's a little bit of that and that was mostly the problem against Forest. Against West Brom I think there was a distinct lack of movement in the front line as well the ball not flowing into midfield as smoothly due to the change there. There was still an element of needing to move the ball quicker though as well needing Evans to carry the ball into the space opening in front of him when given the chance.

DerbyRam! Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Fozzy out, Lowe in. Hope its successful today. Fozzy just had an off day. Honestly with our lack of striker I wouldn't be against Fozzy at LM/LW as crazy as it is (Lawrence is back I guess but if he is unavailable along with Waggy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie20 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 To get the win which I think we will need to remain in a challenge for that 6th place, I think this is as positive a starting eleven that Cocu could have selected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarrowRam Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Going be a really hard game against Brentford. I’d be happy with a draw today. If we don’t get promoted I hope Brentford do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the passing issue has been amplified by Holmes and Knight playing further forward that suits them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah maybe have a point there. How much do you think that's due to positional awareness and how much it's not carrying enough individual threat ? Like for a Lawrence's faults, teams have to pay attention to him and he does actively look to get into places to hurt teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsnip Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 That's 4-3-3 that is. Rooney and Knight box to box midfielders, Lawrence and Sibley as inside forwards. Massive win today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millenniumram Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Let’s hope Lawrence puts in a real shift today to make up for missing the past three games through childish behaviour. I’m astounded Sibley retains his place to be honest, he was totally off it against West Brom and not exactly great against Forest either. I’m not sure he’s ready for this many games on the spin. Happy with the rest of the team mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy with the rest of the team mind. He’s a kid playing his first few professional games and was forced into being the only creative player in the whole team, whilst simultaneously becoming a marked man following his hat trick. No wonder he struggled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully he proves me wrong - I guess there aren’t many other options to give him a rest anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy with the rest of the team mind. Doesn't help he was shoved on the left against West Brom and was starved of the ball against Forest. And yet was still the most lively attacking player.
