Millenniumram Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Back to 4231 by the looks of it. Always difficult to pick the first lineup of the season to be fair, tough to know how players will perform. I’d have preferred to see the more attacking fullbacks in Byrne and Buchanan, but the midfield and attack is the obvious choice given our limited options. Have to admit Forsyth playing worries me, and that attack doesn’t exactly look massively threatening. We really need some reinforcements ASAP. Good to see league debuts for Marshall and Te Weirik mind, and nice for Bird to captain in a league game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramarena Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 WTF???????? Most of the players are playing in their usual positions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Contain Nuts Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 I imagine we'll be terrible for the first hour looking at that line-up, especially if we needlessly have 2 DMs not getting forward. The bench does give us the option to switch to 3-5-2 though, and we may need to. I would not have played Wisdom AND Forsyth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Clough Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 It’s worth remembering Reading targeted us with crosses into the box last season, with Roos and Lowe in particular struggling. Perfectly understandable that we’ve gone for a solid back 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andicis Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 The reaction on here means it's a nailed on Derby win, whenever this place is unanimously happy we play appallingly and vice versa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean (hick) Saunders Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Buchanan looked a bit dodgy at the back (“got a mistake in him” as they used to say about someone) so I think this version of lineup is probably more solid. Good option to change in later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't be surprised to see him get a run out on Tuesday night. Back 4 looks good. Midfield ok. Think Knight and Whittaker are in purely because we have nobody else. Probably but it's another good opportunity for both. Personally thought Whittaker looked lively coming on against Barrow and interested to see if he can kick on.

Perhaps you haven't heard....Waghorn, Lawrence, Holmes all injured, Rooney only fit enough for the bench but we are trying to bring some new creative players in. So that's all we have for now.

jimbo jones Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Big day for the 4 young lads, our creativity is entirely down to 4 academy players. I hope they can produce....and then Marriott remembers how to finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jourdan Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 I think I can understand Cocu choosing Forsyth over Buchanan. You have to ease him in. Reading have many quick and athletic players and he is probably hoping that Forsyth's experience will be telling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StantonRam Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Marshall, Wisdom, Forsyth, Shinnie, Twerk, Bird (C), Marriott, Clarke, Sibley, Whittaker, Knight. Am assuming its Wis Twerk Clarky Fozzy Bird Shiny Whit Sib Knight Marriott That's actually a good blend of experience and youth, speed and solidity. Lots of experience at the back and lots of energy up front. A good safe line up given the injuries and new arrivals. Time for Jack to show what he can do! COYR!
