Dour negative shite from what a Nobber workmate says.Sterling in, as we need some height to win more headers in defence & at set pieces.
NC - can you please select someone who can take a decent corner & free kick? Last night the free kicks on the edge of their box were more in danger of hitting planes on the Heathrow flight path than going in their net . Fortunately, in the end, nothing was lost.
I did mean that Siryou missed off dale you mean
If he's fit enough for 90, get him in. My prediction is Keshi starting though.I think Dale may have to wait. But he made such a difference last night. We were dominating play without looking like scoring til his pretty remarkable introduction. Which provides a pretty persuasive case for getting him involved sooner rather than later.
Anderson had 2 clear chances to influence the game in a big way last night and made a harry halls of both of them. Plus the tremendous free kick he took, which would have been over the bar in a rugby match, it’s time he was given a rest.Yeah Husband did well, but I saw him starting last night as him giving Garbutt a rest before Saturday. Anderson is best cutting in and being creative, with Garbutt overlapping that suits him playing that 'inverted winger' role. Husband is better defensively but he doesn't overlap the same, Anderson then has to stay wide and doesn't have the same impact on the game. For me it's Garbutt and Anderson or Husband and an actual winger with pace who's going to run at full backs, a mix of the two isn't the answer, all in my opinion of course.
This is the team I'd go with...I like Garbutt but just think we look better with Husband at LBGrimshaw
Sterling Ekipeteta Keogh Husband
Dougall Wintle
Bowler Carey Anderson
Yates
That would leave us Dale, Gabriel, Mitchell and Madine to come on against tiring legs. The game will be no doubt played at a million MPH.
Edited to include Dale, our squad is mental when you consider who is currently out injured.
That's true TB but the corners came to nothing & the save was routine. Perhaps he'll be our solution to an area where we're lackingThought Carey took some decent corners last night at least beating the 1st man, also took at least one free kick where the keeper had to save it.
That insult doesn't even make sense, in response to what was a well intended observationDour negative shite from what a Nobber workmate says.
I seem to have used the wrong quote in my message , oopsThat insult doesn't even make sense, in response to what was a well intended observation
Happy enough with that as long as Keshi plays some part. My only issue is Wintle, been fantastic, but who we may lose in a couple of months so maybe play ConnollyGrimshaw
Gabriel - Keogh - Ekpi - Garbutt
Dougall - Wintle
Mitchell - Carey - Dale

How about Matty Virtue as his replacement after Christmas?Happy enough with that as long as Keshi plays some part. My only issue is Wintle, been fantastic, but who we may lose in a couple of months so maybe play Connolly
Maybe but think Matty will be early spring for our promotion push, would not rush him back. Connolly has a pretty good pedigree and is nearly always in the squad so must be close to getting the nod. Would buy Wintle but suspect Cardiff would want silly money.How about Matty Virtue as his replacement after Christmas?
Critch clearly rates him.
I really don't get your obsession , yours alone, to get Connolly into midfield particularly at the expense of Wintle who has been outstanding.Happy enough with that as long as Keshi plays some part.

I have a viewpoint not an obsession, basically it involves giving our own players game time if I believe they can do a similar job to a loanee without weakening the team.I really don't get your obsession , yours alone, to get Connolly into midfield particularly at the expense of Wintle who has been outstanding.
Yes he might go back to Cardiff in January but it makes no sense to me to leave him out because he might not be available in over 2 months
time.
We've seen Connolly in midfield and fish/bike sprang to mind tbh. We've seen Wintle in midfield and seen how good he is there, leaving him out for Connolly would be ridiculous imo. Connolly is a very strong defender, I like him.Happy enough with that as long as Keshi plays some part.

Where do I write Connolly off? He is a decent back up Centre back who could , in an emergency, stand in as a right back and maybe if CritchI have a viewpoint not an obsession, basically it involves giving our own players game time if I believe they can do a similar job to a loanee without weakening the team.
Example Carey over TJJ and before you say it I know they are different types of player, and I was pushing for Carey's inclusion before his masterclass.
Anyone would think that Connolly was a donkey with your writing him off, when the fact is he has played more championship midfield games than Wintle.
