Not against a top of the league side Unnecessary risk. Lets be honest a point would be great A clean sheet would be incredible. Keep the formation give other chances Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green genie Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 2 hours ago, Leyther_Matt said: Surely that’s worse, exposing a single wing back against their full back and wide midfielders rather going 2v2? We play 3 5 2 so would be matching up. Don't worry about the rain. Pitch drains like a colindar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subs : Sheehan, Delfouneso, Aimson, Bakayoko, Kachunga, Gilks and a young lad from the reserves (Henry?) I'd go with that and still got options to change up top as the game wears on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Sarc is carrying this nasty ankle problem, then Sheehan instead. Not both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnyrotten Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 9 hours ago, Tonge moor green jacket said: Aye. Not sure about why Isgrove is suddenly a potential full back. Fine going forward, but a different responsibility in a back line. Brockbank would offer more in the air too if the opposition use that tactic. Round pegs an all that. Isgrove in front where he's best. Agree with all that on Isgrove. I'd have no problem with Baptiste at full back though, that would also improve us aerially at set pieces etc, at both ends.

That’s what managers get paid for. If we had two wing backs then fair enough but we don’t so I disagree. Baptiste at RB I’m not opposed to. I think if we go Sarc and Sheehan we’ll be ripped apart through the midfield anyways Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a massive danger of over-reacting because we got hammered by the best team in the league. Evatt has got it right more often than he's got it wrong and I'm more than happy to back his selections. John & Lee are nailed on if/when fit.

I don't go in for selections normally, however, given the number of injuries we have, it’s good to have people's thoughts on how they see things. Lee and John sound like they're out, so that's one selection issue resolved for Evatt! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
