EulogyForEvolution Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Marshall Bryne Wisdom Clarke Buchanan Baningime Bird Shinnie Jozwiak Knight CKR Throw Baningime in, see if he can do the Bielik job. Keep the rest the same as it was in before Bielik got injured. Introduce the rest of the new players off the bench for a while until they've trained with the team more.

Ghost of Clough Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Without Bielik, we probably need that extra man at the back - more defensive solidity, more strength and more height to the team overall. For this game it'll have to be Mengi joining Wisdom and Clarke. However, I have a feeling our best defence will end up being a back five of: Byrne, Wisdom, Edmundson, Clarke, Buchanan (when Edmundson is fit) Rooney's XI: Marshall Byrne Mengi Wisdom Clarke Buchanan Bird Shinnie Jozwiak Kazim Knight I'm still a big fan of Roos an believe he adds more to the team overall than Marshall (Rooney obviously disagrees). The central CB needs to be able to deal with aerial threats so it can't be Wisdom long term. Edmundson's physique should mean he's well suited. Wisdom at RCB and Byrne at RWB means we will effectively result in a back 4 (Byrne likes to stay higher up the field, with Wisdom drifting wider. Roberts (who likes to cut inside) would work well with Byrne (who hugs the touchline) on the right, with Buchanan (who mixes it up) would continue to work well with Jozwiak (who also mixes it up). Also, with 5 at the back we need a midfielder in there who can link play - Bird. Shinnie misses out. My XI: Roos Byrne Mengi Wisdom Clarke Buchanan Knight Bird Roberts Kazim Jozwiak ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Longer term, I'd like to see Sibley push for that RW/RF spot - who will mix it up a bit more based on what I've seen of Roberts. Roos Byrne Wisdom Edmundson Clarke Buchanan Knight Bird Sibley Kazim Jozwiak 5 subs each game to be made from: McDonald and Fozzy backup wing backs Baningime and Shinnie backup CMs Roberts and Lawrence providing competition for the wingers/wide forwards Gregory/Waghorn backup for Kazim. (Baningime likely to miss out on making the matchday squad due to loan rules) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCFC Kicks Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 I don't see the need to change the back four because of one bad game when it's been solid recently. With Bielik out I don't think we can play with just one CDM, also playing a CAM might make the striker less isolated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernow Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 With Bielik's ACL injury confirmed, then let's hope Baningime can have a Thorne-like influence when coming in to the squad part-way into the season after arriving on loan. It would be great for Shinnie to build up a good relationship on the pitch with him like he did with Bielik, they were becoming a really good combination in the middle for us. I'd love nothing more than to coin the term "Bangers & Smash" for Baningime and Shinnie (in respect of his endless run of yellow cards) if they can have a similar impact together.

Maybe your right, but Wisdom has been vulnerable aerially for most of the season in my opinion, has been lucky to get away with a few until now. Probably his pace, passing ability, and Clarke's dominance in the air have masked this issue so far. Good point about Bielik. Maybe now we are getting more bodies forward it could be ok to go back to the 4-2-3-1 which was thought to be too defensive a while back. I actually quite liked Bird in the no.10 position the rare occasions he's played there. Definitely more creative than Knight and good with the ball at his feet. Although Sibley and Lawrence are both potentially better options there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black ('n' White) Sheep Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 After seeing what happened against Rotherham, I think 3 at the back is the way to go: Marshall Mengi, Wisdom, Clarke Byrne, Knight, Shinnie, Buchanan Roberts, Kazim, Jozwiak Let's face it... we haven't got another player like Bielik, so we need to adapt and IMO this formation suits the players we have available the best. Also gives the option to bring Sibbo and Greggs on for Roberts and Jozwiak if we wanted to change it a bit and go 2 up front with Sibbo as a number 10. My optimism took one hell of a knock last night, but our record against the top teams in this league means I'm still hopeful we can climb slightly further away from the relegation zone. COYR ?

Malcolm Brooks Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Derby were disrupted by the introduction of new players as substitutes after 72 minutes when it was nil nil. Stick with the nuclear of the team that was successful. Only the right attacking position should be under consideration. Waggon, Sibley ,or Roberts. Sibley for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
