Team and Formation v Preston

[Sothall_Blade]

(Straightforward 4-3-3)

Long

Coady Collins Maguire Hill

Cuvelier Doyle McGinn

Brandy Taylor Baxter

 

[DHeppenstall]

Looks like a 4 -0 drubbing for us then. Why not 4-0-6

 

[Damski]

We've not got the quality to pull off a 3 man midfield. 4-4-2 is more appropriate.

 

[Torrix1889]

Coady at RB.....?

I would go;

Long

McMahon
Maguire
Collins
Hill

Brandy
Coady
Doyle
Cuvelier

Taylor with Baxter just behind

(Straightforward 4-3-3)

Long

Coady Collins Maguire Hill

Cuvelier Doyle McGinn

Brandy Taylor Baxter

I take it thats what you want?? Mr Weir (aka Britain's best manager) will go 4-5-1. Same team from Saturday apart from Brandy will be recalled.

 

[IOM Blade]

How desperate the times are when i will be absolutely gutted if Porter's name is not on the team sheet.

The only time we have been anything like an attacking threat is when big Chris has been on the pitch.

 

[Railway Blade]

Long

McMahon
Maguire
Collins
Hill

Coady

Cuvelier
McGinn
Brandy

Baxter

Taylor

More than a little worried that the two centre halves are too similar and slow so might even consider Hill in centre to replace one of them and try McFadzean at left back

 

[BerksBlade]

Centre-backs will be marking Kevin Davies so speed is not a priority!

 

[mattbianco1]

I would go (if I was in charge)

4-4-2 Diamond / 4-1-3-2

Long​

​

McMahon - Collins - Maguire - McFadzean​

​

Doyle​

Brandy - - Cuvelier​

Baxter​

Porter - Murphy​

 

[Patrick Suffaux]

-----------------------Long---------------------
--------------Maguire Collins Hill----------------
Westlake----------------------------McFadzean
---------------McGinn-----Doyle----------------
---------------------Cuvelier---------------------
--------------------------------------------------
---------------Brandy------Baxter---------------

 

[Pedro Verde]

We will not be playing 2 up front. Weir has said so

 

[Kenilworth]

There will be a new striker up top satdi.
Not loan signing but permy.

 

[Oreyt]

So currently unattached?

 

[Kenilworth]

So currently unattached?

Yep

 

[Oreyt]

Yep

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

*Does intrigued face*

EDIT: Oh balls, I thought Marlon was still with a club : /

 

[judge]

Marcus bent

 

[Kev Gee]

He may even go MORE negative as he will be shit scared to loose?

 

[Kenilworth]

I thought Marlon was still with a club : /

As I understand it, that's how he rolls.

 

[bladesman3]

Yep

Very intrigued..

 

[Kenilworth]

Very intrigued..

You won't be.
I'll bet not many will like it either
Can only just imagine the grief he will get of he continues the trend of not finishing any of the none chances our midfield don't create for him. Still. He may be a good asset for defending corners

 

[bartman]

try McFadzean at left back

Out for 4 weeks with ligament damage according to instagram

 

[cooperblade]

Long
McMahon Maguire Collins Hill
Doyle Cuvelier
Brandy Baxter Hall
King

Despite all the evidence I've seen that they probably won't get the ball, that 4 front looks pretty exciting.

Just the full backs to sort now.

 

[Jim Chimmerney]

Whichever formation we use, we're going to have to score at least 2 after Kevin Davies gets his usual goal.

I always said he'd end up with us, I wonder if this would have been the case had the Prince arrived 3 months earlier.

Looks about right. I'd like McGinn for Doyle, but unlikely

Not sure we can get away with 5 midfielders who can't tackle.

After 2 new full backs, my priority would be a 6 foot plus, athletic midfielder who can win the ball and pass it. A bigger, better, younger, taller, stronger, fitter Doyle basically.

So someone like Shelvey then? Not that he would come to us

 

[dublin 10 blade]

If Davie boy can't get that team to play well then we have serious problems. My team would be as above, but i think he'll start with Hall on the bench, Cavalier left and McGinn/Coady next to Doyle.

 

[SotonBlade]

Long
Westlake Maguire Collins McFadzean
McGinn Cuvelier
Brandy.......Baxter..........Hall

That would be my lineup​

Since when can Doyle tackle. Granted, he can miss tackles. I would like to see Coady with someone else, can't all be his fault.
