The main positive from the teams for each half is that the name Ivo Grbic doesn’t appear anywhere.

I think I need to change my avatar tho, Nwachukwu disappeared again, despite being in training vids.

Don’t worry. I’m still using McBurnie. At least yours is a current employee .

 

[Davalon]

Shock horror, he's got Wilder as his profile pic.

Minor knocks?

Being saved for another game as Selles can't look at everyone in one match?

I'm sure we'll be told in the post match interview.

Looks like 433

Ohare Blacker Marsh
Brookes Campbell Cannon

 

[Blade56]

Both have transfer rumours

 

[loyalblade95]

Combining the two starting 11's from tonight, this is our strongest 11 from those 2 lineups (IMO).

----------------Cooper
Seriki-Anel-Bindon-Burrows
---O'Hare--Blacker--Hamer
Brooks---Campbell--Cannon

Oné and Marsh look like strong contenders for the bench at the moment.

For me, Blackers inclusion highlights the need for a defensive midfielder to protect that back 4, could Peck potentially play there or do we need a new CDM?

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

One on the left for me. Barry will be better than both though.

 

[Bergen Blade]

We never played (started) Seriki behind Brooks on the right last season. Encouraging that Selles tried that combination in his first match.

Why does that matter? Wilder signed Cannon, and have RND the contract extension.

Peck, Davies and Blaster. I get the feeling we won't play with a DM but instead the CMs will press and hold depending on where the ball is. I don't think any of those three would be a DM but could see all 3 playing the role well, with licence to press forward

It’s been 7 years since mine last made an appearance for us

 

[Tony_Kaufman]

Out of interest what was the formation in each half?

Variations of 433 both halves

 

[Tony_Kaufman]

Is Tom Davies having some kind of bet with Rhian Brewster?

The shame of it is that you can see that Davies is a class player more than capable of being one of our best...... IF.... and a huge if, he can stay injury free.

Blaster would be a good shout, not as a DM but more like how Norwood used to play, sitting deep and dictating play, especially with O'Hare and Hamer playing as two 8's.

That's pretty much where I see him, though he is more than capable of playing box to box too.
