DCFC1976 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Marshall Byrne Wisdom Clarke Forsyth Bielik Knight Waghorn Lawrence Jozwiak CKR Roos, McDonald, Buchanan, MTW, Bird, Holmes, Sibley, Stretton, Ibe (Whittaker for Sibley if he is injured?) Sibley seems to be behind Lawrence at the minute, didn’t make the squad on Wednesday and don’t think he was injured?! Waghorn for Holmes, Knight for Shinnie and Byrne back in with Wisdom moving to centre back. Give CKR 60mins and then stick Waghorn up front and give Ibe a run out on the right.

I think that might be the team ^^^^, but depends a bit on whether Foz and\or CKR are in condition to play another match so soon. I think Rooney will want Bird involved, and if so Lawrence I think makes way and Knight has another go further up the field. I would like to see Ibe and Sibley get some second half action though. Be interesting to see if Evans or MTW are on the bench. If not the latter it must be thought he will be back to Holland in Jan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is though they are doing ok, lost the other night only because they missed a penalty when 1-0 up. Tough game, McLean suspended is a blow for them. If we continue to improve we have nothing to fear, a tad more composure and we are as good as anyone in this league. Wow, they were not exaggerating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple of the others such as Batth and Fletcher are 50:50. McClean is also suspended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite having 2 keepers out injured, they still have Bursik, Lonergan and Maenpaa to choose from. They also have the luxury of defensive options: Chester, Lindsay, Shawcross, Collins, Tymon, Fox and Smith. That's not even including Wimmer and Bauer who they're excluding from their squad.

Heisenberg Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Marshall; Byrne, Wisdom, Clarke, Forsyth; Bielik, Bird; Waghorn, Knight, Jozwiak; CKR. Losing Davies and Shinnie will both be a blow as we were just beginning to see the spine of the team being formed. It sounds like Stoke have picked up a few injuries recently, the most notable being star striker Tyrese Campbell, who looks like he's done something to his knee. (7 goals in all competitions so far this season) The 3 points are certainly there for the taking if we can continue this mini run of form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other night not a shot on target at all but a good point at the end of the night. I'd go 442 so that it gives us a better chance of scoring goals. Marshall Byrne Wisdom Clarke Forsyth Waghorn Knight Bielik Jozwiak Kazim Stretton 21 hours ago, Chris_Martin said: Brentford didn't either though. In general this season Brentford do have lots of shots on target that is why they are in and around the top six and the reason we are near the bottom is because we do not have enough shots on target, this is why I think it is worth trying to play two up top to give us the chance of scoring more goals because the current system is not producing goals. I'm not sure how many clean sheets we can keep to scrape the odd 1-0 win currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKRam Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Not falling for the ‘must win’ routine but with this little bit of momentum if we can see the confidence growing, I believe we really have a very capable squad, the impact of the C word is huge. Two home games, I’m expecting victory...... then again what’s new... . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCFC Kicks Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 If CKR is rested, move Waghorn up top, Lawrence out wide and play SIbley. What's happened to te Wierik? He can't be that bad, looks like he has the attributes to be a good CB. We need leaders in defence which is what he's meant to be having captained Groningen. Or has he just turned out to be a Dutch Albentosa? Could really do with him now Davies is injuried Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah agree we need to work on getting more shots and creating a bit more, but i think it will come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ibe over Waghorn for me but i know we won't get 90min out of him. Not sure what's happened to MTW either. Could do with him in this game as Wisdom quite poor at heading and it's Stoke city. But Rooney has told them all if you train well, you play. So clearly he's not been doing that well in training. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comrade 86 Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Assuming Curtis is out... I can't have Wisdom at CB so Evans goes in with Solomon the back-up. We have to start winning games now so Bielik the sole DM with Sibbo and Knight either side. Ibe to get 60 minutes with Waggy the replacement. Likewise Colin and Lawrence, the latter being far more use played centrally than out wide. A poo or bust selection it, has to be said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenBr Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 I say this every game, but stop playing with two defensive mids - Bielik more than sufficient in that role. With Davies out my team would be: Marshall Macdonald Wisdom Clarke Forsyth Bielik Knight Sibley Ibe Stretton Joswiak Don't know if it will work with Stretton and think Col has done a good job, but he looked spent after 30 minutes against Brentford and imo needs a rest. Joswiak looked good, but not convinced by either of the players on the other side, so would try Ibe for a change instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
