Also think Hourihane could flourish if he was encouraged to get forward more... he's got one of the best shots at the club. Wouldn't even have Collins on the bench. Give big Bart or Dejaune Brown a call up and see how they get on instead. Bart is out on loan I think… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiggerB Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 (edited) Wildsmith. Rooney* Foz Cash Roberts Smith Bird Hourihane Barks. Didzy. Dobbs. Subs McGee, Chester, Sibbo, White, Springett, Thomson, Davies *PW won’t though! Not sure NML is fully fit, so I’d rest him. Could sit Smith and Bird side-by-side with Max having licence to push up and Hourihane at the bottom of a diamond with the front 3.

Ambitious Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 A loss here and we're bang in trouble, a win here and it keeps our head's above water for a few more weeks. We've not really played well away from home all season, certainly haven't had a decent result away from home, with our only wins coming against the poorest of the poor teams we've played this season. If I'm a betting man, I'm banking on a home win - a fragile, jaded team coming off an historically poor result. A team who look by all accounts have crumbled physically and mentally. Is Paul Warne going to let Darren f*****g Ferguson dog-walk him around London Road Stadium? I guess we will find out. SKRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustOneBiblicalKazim Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 Wildsmith Rooney Forsyth Cashin Roberts Bird Thompson Sibley Barkhuizen Mcgoldrick Dobbin Subs- McGee, Davies, Smith, Hourihane, NML, Springett, Brown - Rooney back in at right back, should’ve been at least on the bench against Fleetwood, not sure what White’s done to warrant that place ahead of him and Thompson, particularly Thompson who was starting championship games consistently last season. Not having Rooney on the bench meant we didn’t have him to bring on for Smith who was having an absolute stinker. - In my opinion, Thompson looked good in his only start in the league in a strong away performance at Portsmouth, think he’s warranted more involvement than he’s had and there’s been plenty of opportunities to give him half an hour in games we’ve been cruising. Think he’d at least graft and help provide the energy we were lacking on Saturday in midfield. - Brown on the bench because he’s someone that isn’t Collins, 8 goals in 8 appearances in the under 18’s premier league this season, 79 minutes per goal, was on the bench against West Ham so clearly he’s at least somewhat on Warne’s radar. Might offer us something different? To be honest I’d rather try Dobbin as a 9 rather than a Collins completely bereft of confidence. - Midfield I’ve picked definitely has the potential to be overran and easily beaten, and Bird’s very fortunate to be in it based on Saturday, but we need a reaction to the last game and I’d be interested to see what they could offer as a three. angieram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Bird looked better as the game wore on Saturday. He's been out a while and that game will have helped him get back up to speed. Looked really rusty in his brief cameo at Oxford.

Edtheram Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 (edited) Okay. This is how I’d set my team up. The players I’m dropping are not dropped for the season just this game based on how competitive it will be and how much a win will mean for us. 4-2-3-1 GK - Wildsmith RB- Rooney CB - Forsyth (Chester if fit) CB - Cashin LB - Roberts DM - Smith DM - Bird LW - Barkhauzien RW - NML AM - Dobbin ST - Didzy Let the 3 behind Didzy interchange. Can all play different positions throughout the game. If Didzy drops deep get the AM to get pat him and play as the 9 to create space. Combative Midfield 2 with Bird and Smith. Full backs who can get up and down and put a tackle in with Roberts & Rooney. Edited March 20, 2023 by Edtheram Wrong name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl Sagan Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Wildsmith Smith Forsyth Cashin Roberts Bird Hourihane Barkhuizen Sibley Dobbin McGoldrick Subs: McGee Rooney Davies White Collins Mendez-Laing Springett This is a must-not-lose game. If it weren't for us playing one of our rivals, I'd have given Cashin a rest and brought Rooney in as cover, but that seems too extreme in this situation. With Knight's call up, Sibley will hopefully have the chance to prove to Warne he needs to play in that attacking central midfield, number 10 role. A rest for Mendez-Laing. Probably no room for Thommo, though it's close between him and White for a spot on the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GangwayD Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 Wildsmith Rooney Forsyth Cashin Roberts Barkhuizen Smith Bird Hourihane Sibley McGoldrick I'd keep things tight (steady on !) and maybe go 4-5-1 then look to bring in Dobbin and maybe Collins later on if we need a goal. For some reason, feeling optimistic as I think we will see a reaction from some of the players.

Previously the Brewery Tap and/or Wetherspoons, both near the station seem the most popular, then a beer on the Boat - The Charters I think it's called. Not sure if apathy has set in with our support, but hopefully we will sell out the away end - looking forward to it.
