Yani P 2,061 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Can't see us playing 442 in this type of game..need more in the midfield and hopefully play with some attacking width to give them something to worry about.. Link to post Share on other sites

It’s why im suprised people seem so surprised when the likes of last night happen - we have been in this division about 13 seasons in a row - we know what it’s about. 😂 Rammy03, DarkFruitsRam7 and Topram 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

LeedsCityRam 3,768 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Whilst Watford are top 6, they're going to pose a different challenge to Swansea & Bournemouth who we were able to play on the counter against. Firstly, they dont score many at all & are very good defensively, so we need more cutting edge & a much better foothold in the game. QPR beat them at Vicarage Road a few weeks back & did so by dominating the ball. I think we should try & match that by playing Bird to make a 3 man midfield with the more industrious Knight & Shinnie, with Max controlling possession higher up the park & the other 2 sitting deeper, screening the back 4 & covering for Byrne & Buchanan's raids. Dont believe this game is suitable for two up top so would drop Gregory & move to a 4-3-3/4-2-3-1. Ive also been very disappointed with the output of Jozwiak & Waghorn (in open play) so would bring in Roberts for his first start & Sibley on the left side (I know Rooney doesnt seem to fancy him but I'd play him) Below lineup assumes Clarke is available. If not, Edmundson to come in for his first start. Malty 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Rampage 6,740 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 The six teams that are now below us plus Luton all lost either yesterday or today. Rotherham are losing at present. Only QPR have won who were below us this morning, bizarrely beating Brentford. The goal that Andre scored has made so much difference. Well done Wiz.

DCFClks 893 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 I still think Jozwiak needs a rest, but I don't think we have anyone else who can play LW at the moment. I don't think Roberts or Waghorn have ever played on the left and the only other option is Knight (if Lawrence is still out). Chris_Martin 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not sure was it under Cocu or someone before him, but relatively recently anyway. And of course Sibley played there against Birmingham. DCFClks 1 Link to post Share on other sites
DCFC27 802 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 7 hours ago, Rampage said: If we continue our present form then we will probably be in the Play Offs whether we want to be or not. Would be 14 wins at the previous six games rate. 42+34=76. Just saying. I think our form over the past 10 games tells a bigger picture. On that I can’t see us making play offs. I’m very excited for next season though. Rampage and Old Sawley Popside 2 Link to post Share on other sites
