JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 I'd go 4-3-3 for this one. Oduroh makes the XI because I'd rather play round pegs in round holes in the first instance than force players out of position. If it's not working then we can change it up by dropping Knight back to RB and bringing Smith on in midfield. GK: Wildsmith DEF: Oduroh - Davies - Chester - Forsyth MID: Knight - Bird - Hourihane FWD: NML - Collins - Barkhuizen Rammy03, LeedsRam1999, Caerphilly Ram and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MACKWORTHRAM Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Even if we sign a couple this week then they aren't gonna be playing on Saturday. I think LR will go with Wildsmith Knight Davies Chester Roberts Bird Smith Hourihane NML. Collins. Barkhuizen Genuinely think that's the obvious team. Toss up between who plays right back our of Knight or Smith but LR will not be playing Oduroh there. Other than Smith, who needed the minutes, I'd be amazed if anyone else in that team makes the starting 11 on Saturday. Forsyth and Cashin didn't really do their chances any favours at all. From what I've seen of Roberts he looks a better option at LB than Forsyth. vonwright and desirelines 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, if McGoldrick is fit enough to play the first half, I would start him, move Knight to RB and Oduroh would drop to the bench, then reverse those changes when McGoldrick tires and comes off.

He's played in most other positions for the Rams.... ck- and jono 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smith's no more a right back than Knight is, but I suspect you lose more playing Knight out of position. Rammy03 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodley Ram Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 1-1 with lots of missed placed passes and nearly moments, Oxford have got us at the right time as we will get better and better. Saturday I am hopeful more than expecting a win. Anyway COYR’s . Will be off from Berkshire on Saturday with lots of hope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramslad1992 Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Anything less than a 5-0 win for my birthday and Liam can GTFO. In all seriousness Oxford are one of the better sides in league one over the last couple of seasons so will be good to see how we match up.

They aren’t ordinary, have some new signings will be up for it. They also sold a lot of tickets. We are at home and all of us a up for it. Big crowd, outpouring of relief, Not easy for Liam and the team. They need to deliver but I just know there will be 25,000 + right behind them.
