Ambitious Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 (edited) The unbeaten run until the end of the season starts here, boys & girls! With one of the smallest squad in football league history, it’s difficult to see too much rotation but would imagine the players in need of minutes all get a good run out and possibly even 90 minutes. Team: Vickers, Nelson, Bradley, Cashin, Wilson, Robinson, Thompson, Hourihane, Elder, Waghorn, Washington. If Vickers does well then stands to reason that Wildsmith will be on the outside looking in for a while after yesterday. Elder is desperate for the minutes and the two strikers both have a chance to stake a claim to start against Burton.

Agree with the team, especially leaving the back 3 in place and changing the rest, though to do this completely I'd play Rooney and 'rest' Hourihane too.

Kernow Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 Hopefully Brown is on the bench and has the opportunity to get some minutes. I thought it was strange that we give him a professional contract and Warne talks highly of his role in the squad, then he doesn’t make the bench when the only other attacking option we had was Washington who isn’t fully fit.

SouthDerbysRam Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 I don't think Warne would do this but I would play a similar team to yesterday but with Elder & Washington. I thought there was a few moments where the team lacked chemistry which they'll only improve by playing more games together. Robinson on BBC Radio Derby thought the same, and didn't think they had enough pre-season games. They'll be times later in the season to rest players, especially against some of the cannon fodder near the bottom of our league/next round if we win Tuesday/other cup competitions.

I think if Brown was going to be included in a matchday squad as early as this then he would’ve been provided a squad number - think the pizza cup will be his opportunity if he’s doing well at u21 level.

The romantic in me wants to see a young striker with fire setting the game alight, ( he seems powerful and well built, so maybe, just maybe) he will be our missing piece. I know Life isn’t like that, but it’s always good when one of our own steps up to the squad proper. I just love to see the progression. .. let’s see how it goes.

JustOneBiblicalKazim Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 Vickers Rooney Bradley Cashin Wilson Robinson Elder Thompson Bird Brown Washington Subs- Loach, Fozzy, Ward, Smith, Hourihane, Radcliffe, NML, Collins, Waghorn (assuming all is confirmed by then) - 9 subs allowed in the cup I believe? Rooney and Thompson need to be playing games whenever they can so I want to see them starting basically every cup fixture if they aren’t starting in the league. Still allows Bradley and Cashin to gel as part of that back 3. Want to see Robinson and Brown at least getting a decent amount of minutes (20-30) if they don’t start, how are they going to prove themselves if we never give them the opportunity? Would like to see Brown play surrounded by first team level players, felt like most of his preseason minutes came towards the end of games when we were giving lots of young players minutes. - Actually think this midfield might be better suited to the system than the one we saw on Saturday, obviously Robinson is an unknown quantity but there’s plenty of energy and legs and in Bird and Thompson you have a midfield pairing that played a good number of games together in the championship. I feel that Bird is better suited to the roles that Hourihane and Smith were playing on Saturday, where he can make interceptions and tackles, which for me are possibly his biggest strength, and have more time to pick his passes. jono 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ram1988 Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 We need to keep the back three together to allow them to build chemistry together. I'd also give more minutes to Wilson and Elder. Hopefully Waggy will be signed up so he can play up top with Washington DiggerB, DCFC1388 and Tamworthram 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamLad1884 Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Vickers for Wildsmith Elder for Fozzy Robinson for Hourihane Washington for NML We have almost got to use the early season cup games like pre-season games, in the sense that their primary use will be to get some minutes into those that need them and build a solid spine to the team.
