Byrne            Evans                 Clarke          Buchanan

                     Knight                     Bielik

                                  Austin

                                    OR

                                      Roos

Wisdom            Davies               Bird             Forsyth

                         Rooney            Shinnie

Holmes                        Sibley                         Whittaker

                                    Marriott

And Te Wierik cannot get in either side... You even prefer to play Bird in central defence than the new boy.

Harsh on both.

Right now I think it's a bit tricky to know for certain. There are a lot of question marks and a lot of unknowns. So for know I'm going to cheat and name a side that I think has the highest potential and a side that is likely the most consistent. 

Firstly the most consistent:

                 Marshall

      Wisdom Davies Clarke

Byrne          Rooney         Buchanan

            Knight       Shinnie

                    Jozwiak

                    Waghorn 

I don't think it would be particularly exciting but I expect it would be functional and competitive in most games.

Secondly the highest potential:

                 Marshall

Byrne   Bielik  Clarke Buchanan

                    Bird

            Knight   Sibley

Ibe            Waghorn       Jozwiak

There are obvious question marks over this side that I won't belabour but I genuinely believe that side has the highest potential in terms of ability as a football team and I think something akin to this is what we should be working towards.

Some seriously good players there, its the Managers (and his coaches) job to get them in the right formation.

Stuart Pearce (who must be a Ram - he kissed the badge) tells a story of when he was first caretaker manager at Forest. He couldn't sleep trying to squeeze everyone into the team. Eventually, he cried out "Done it". So his wife turns to him and says "let me see". After studying the line up, she asks: "Where's Crossley?"

I think this is the team with Rooney as 'super sub' for the last thirty minutes of every game, coming in wherever he's most needed in the front six. Austin/Waggy/Marriott are a good set of options upfront. Holmes and Knight rotating through that forward midfield three (or Knight subbing for Bird or Bielik) gives great depth, too. It's looking a decent squad at this point, on paper at least.

Very good transfer window; well don, Philip.

It's so difficult, I really wouldn't know where to start in all honesty. 

Marshall

Byrne         MTW              Clarke       Buchanan

Jozwiak           Bird             Bielik            Ibe

Lawrence              Waghorn

A bit old fashioned, like, but you can mix it up as you please.

Back in my playing time we had a player manager goalkeeper

half way through the second half he shouts "Ref Sub"

Then shouts directions something like "CF go out to right wing" " right wing to Centre Mid" Centre Mid you stay deeper CDM" "sub you come on up front"

Then someone shouted who is going off....

"shoot he shouts - thought that looked good - play on I will come back to it"

Funny how few line ups have Knight in the starting 11, yet over on the Knight thread, he’s first on the team sheet. 

Don't you know anything about football? Surely you have to pick the right team in the right formation to beat that weeks opposition.

Well it is the same here, just because knight is first on the team sheet in his own thread, doesn't mean he will be on this thread. Duh  ?
