[Trafford]

and just as I post that, United post a pic of Burke haha

Along with Hourihane, Berger and Bogle - looks like he's a sub to me

 

[Iceybabey]

Berge and Davies in for Robbo and Norwood, sorted.

Reckon Bogle would enjoy game time with Iliman and MGW at some point n'all.

 

[adamawdhali]

On a separate note, i wonder why defenders always fall for it when george baldock fakes to cross. Every bastard knows he’s going to complete 4 more fake crosses untill he whips the bastard thing in

You wouldn’t drop Norwood after Saturday, played really well.

And going off Bogles performance against Derby and Luton, he’s got a long way to go to get close to the first team.

Freeman can’t release the ball without at least one step over…

 

[Lane Ender]

Surely Freeman is the logical replacement for Osborn?

100%

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Fingers crossed that big lump Wickham ain't fit to play.

Oh and kiss of death Staton is commentating on the game.

 

[jono_t2000]

Pretty sure Slav said not everyone is 100% and namechecked Burke and Brewster as options.. so not sure why people are surprised.

I agree Freeman is logical replacement for Osborn, however he's still overweight so can't blame Slav for not starting him tbh

 

[SuperSonicBlade89]

I haven't been this excited to go to a game for a long time!

I wasn't feeling particularly confident going into the Peterborough game, even after the match, of course I was overjoyed, but I didn't want to overkill it by making bold statements like "we're going up this season after that 1 result" seems like a very wendy thing to say.

Hoping Saturday wasn't a fluke.
Preston matches tend to be difficult to call in recent history, but I guess that just adds to the excitement.

 

[Grizzly blade]

Disappointing that it looks like we won’t have Olsen playing…I feel we need that level of keeper to start getting the clean sheets.

If he was playing I’m sure we might have seen some pictures of him arriving and a little bit of a fan fair.

He’s arrived

I always wonder; why in the pre match warm up and the half time warm ups the players show great control,skill,pin point pings but when the game starts or they come on as sub,they are woeful with their passing and control

Very good point.

Zero pressure. Easy to comfortable and controlling when there's little to nothing at stake

 

[adamawdhali]

I’m getting a bit giddy for tonights game which means only one thing… 2-0 loss

[ben1987]

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

Sharps OK
Burke’s not on the bench

 

[ben1987]

Ffs second

 

[adamawdhali]

Robinsons upsetting me

 

[S40BLADE]

Wonder if we are just easing Davies back in. Happy to see Olsen and Sharp and especially no Burke.

 

[Grizzly blade]

Pleased to see Olsen in the team.
Hope he gets enough protection from Clanger to allow him time to settle into the game.

 

[Upton_Blade]

Decent.

Olsen for L1 Wes. Glad to see Freeman get a start and Davies obvs not ready yet. Would prefer to see Bash instead of Robbo but, apart from the clanger, he was pretty solid on Saturday.

 

[georgebernardshaw]

Some early team news. Burke and Brewster come in for Sharp (knock) and Ozzy (ill).

This ITK stuff….you’re not very good at it, are you?

 

[robbiez666]

What's up with Berge?

 

[loyalblade95]

No Osborn, surprise there after his two goals, unless he's injured.

 

[SwindonBladeJnr]

Obvious answer is because when in a real game environment there is an opponent trying to prevent you from doing all of those things.

 

[Chicken with no head]

Id have preferred bash as a centre half along with Egan, but hey ho off we go.

 

[broomhillblade]

No Osborn, surprise there after his two goals, unless he's injured.

Osborn 'misses out though sickness'.

 

[OnmiEdson]

Not many options for defence in case of injuries apart from Bash of course
Gung Ho Slav……..
I think I like it……….
