Convict Colony Posted 31 January, 2023 Share Posted 31 January, 2023 I dont know but maybe Bree at RB might play very well and KWP on the left plays better than a knackered perraud 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jones doesn’t agree and thinks Diallo is a better option for this opposition, as he did with the home game. As I say, i disagree, but it was absolutely nailed on that it was going to happen.

wooley7 Posted 31 January, 2023 Share Posted 31 January, 2023 Not usually a fan of all the moaning about starting line ups but got to say I’m very surprised by that team. Disappointed to see a back three and not sure about the centre backs he has picked. Hopefully they have learnt to play the back three better than their last try!

FarehamSaintJames Posted 31 January, 2023 Share Posted 31 January, 2023 More importantly is Murphy playing so he can get clattered? Would he strangely satisfying to see him stretchered off crying whilst our team wave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davefizzy14 Posted 31 January, 2023 Share Posted 31 January, 2023 I'm really surprised Caleta-Car and Perraud aren't starting but good to see Bree make his debut.

Saint Matty 76 Posted 31 January, 2023 Share Posted 31 January, 2023 That team gets worse every time you look at it. A game we need to win by two and your only attackers are Che and Armstrong. This obsession with Diallo over Lavia is utterly bizarre and I cannot believe both Lyanco and Bednarek are starting, yet DCC is on the bench and ABK was "rushed in" to play a fucking FA cup game instead. Not to mention Perraud being rewarded for being our only good player by being dropped for Bree cause he's his mate. Hope somebody quotes this in 3 hours calling me a twat. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golac's Cunning Stunts Posted 31 January, 2023 Share Posted 31 January, 2023 honestly, how does bednarek get a start in a semi final when he was deemed not good enough for us a few weeks ago. Absolute fucking joke this 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egg Posted 31 January, 2023 Share Posted 31 January, 2023 That is mental. Back to a back 3, and this is no game for a debut for Bree, especially when Perraud is bang in form. Bednarek over DCC is baffling, and I'd have preferred Lavia in midfield too. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint NL Posted 31 January, 2023 Share Posted 31 January, 2023 That line up Let's hope it's a real masterstroke. 5 at the back, keep it tight and unleash some pace later on. Or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Kucho Posted 31 January, 2023 Share Posted 31 January, 2023 This line up makes absolutely no sense. No Perraud after Saturday, no DCC, no Edozie. Unless these players have fitness issues, this is a very strange line up. Would have gone for, Bazunu Walker-Peters - DCC- Salisu - Perraud Alcaraz - Lavia/Diallo Edozie - JWP - A.Armstrong Adams 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely, it would be better with Perraud on the left and Walker-Peters on the right, especially as Perraud was our best player in our last game.

Saint_clark Posted 31 January, 2023 Share Posted 31 January, 2023 One thing I'll say in defence of Bednarek is I remember him making a LOT of blocks and interceptions in situations like the one we conceded in against Newcastle last week. They got down our flanks and played balls across the box so easily and he is good at intercepting those. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maysie Posted 31 January, 2023 Share Posted 31 January, 2023 It’s not so much the personnel for me but the formation. We’ve never looked good with 3CBs. There may be the odd exception but I struggle to remember it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
