Anag Ram Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 7 hours ago, Rampant said: Jeez. That's not going to help. In that case I'm either sticking Smith back at RB or giving Max Bardell his first start (I think). Wildsmith Bardell Nelson Cashin Forsyth Rooney Thompson Hourihane NML Waghorn Washington (Vickers, Smith, Elder, Robinson, Sibley, Brown, Collins) Fozzy, Bardell and Rooney can all cover CB so Bradley's place on the bench can go to Brown. Would include Barkz if available but assuming he's not quite ready. Would endorse this sentiment 100%. NML needs someone to work with up top and Collins isn’t that man. I’ve seen a few suggest Nelson at RB. Not if he’s going to lump the ball ten yards over the heads of Derby players thank you. In your lineup I’d play Rooney just in front of the CBs.

Ask Rooney to turn the ball over and offload it to the full backs or wingers. Ask Wilson and Elder to overlap NML and Waggy.

Guest Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 There is no way any of these line-ups will be selected on Saturday unless David Clowes knows something we don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I play walking football for over 60s, over 63s and over 65 teams, and I can guarantee you that we would not outpace Derby's current team.

I must admit however, that the walking football game I played in yesterday lunchtime before heading for Derby for our game was a much better game of football than what was served up last night.

DCFC1388 Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 I think we will go with a 4231 / 433 which is what we played during Warne's best run with us: Wildsmith - Nelson Bradley Cashin Forsyth - Smith Hourihane Thompson - NML Collins Waghorn Subs: Vickers Wilson Elder Rooney Robinson Sibley Washington I can't see Bird & Ward playing based off Warne's post match interview & Wilson has a slight knock so can see him being on the bench if he isnt fit either then Bardell to come in for him. Thats quite a defensive back 4 but is what we need imo, I think a back 4 would suit all parties. Nelson at RB can do a job there, both Bradley & Cashin seem to struggle in a 3 but I think a 2 is more suitable for them. Thompson can then use his energy to get around the pitch in a free role as well as supporting Collins with Waggy & NML giving us width. Hopefully Sibley gets a full week training, I can see him making the bench if short on numbers from the 2 injuries last night. Chester40 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jono Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 I’m hoping we’ll get back to preseason form. Faint hope, but it’s there. Has to be if you are a supporter and fan ! think we might see Rooney and Thommo somewhere on the pitch. Think Waggy deserves a start. The rest is in the lap of the gods angieram and Caerphilly Ram 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ziggazagga Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 This match last season was the start of the red flags for me. Warne took the players to Cheltenham races for some team bonding FFS, three days previously, turned up against Fleetwood thinking they already had 3 points. Went into half time 0-1 spent the first 15 minutes of the second half with the gang of three discussing subs that should have been made at halftime, whilst they were pissing around Fleetwood scored another. And then the usual panic, make 5 subs. I said to my son at the time he hasn't got a plan B and nothing has changed to this day. The gang of three cannot see the game unfolding and do not react, I suggest they study weigman and the lionesses to understand impact substitutions. Bird will go to Bristol city and cashin to Brighton and why wouldn't they, how are they going to develop as top class footballers with warnes brand of hoofball. We know they are better than that RoyMac5, Nishfan, taffyram and 2 others 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YorkshireRam Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 If both Ward and Wilson are injured, as was suggested on the radio, then I think we may be forced into 4 at the back: Wildsmith Rooney Bradley Forsyth Elder Thompson Smith NML Hourihane Waghorn Collins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Contain Nuts Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 (edited) I can't decide if the lack of an update on Bird is deeply concerning or an indication it wasn't as bad as it looked.

DCFC1976 Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Assuming both Bird and Ward are injured and that Wilson was just a knock I’d go with; Wildsmith Wilson Nelson Bradley Forsyth Thompson Hourihane NML Collins Waghorn Washington Give Cashin a rest with all the speculation and also don’t think he has played very well although the same could be levelled at Nelson and Bradley?!
