WhistleHappy Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 Only positive (clutching at straws) is IF there are any niggling/lingering injury issues for Baker, the enforced extra rest/recovery period won't do him any harm at all. If we can ride out his absence without too much damage to result's, then Bakers return should see him 100% fit, fully healed . and raring to go, at his absolute best for the remains of the season. It's an enforced luxury of rest that players rarely get before returning to battle after injuries.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lrrr Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 For the first two games stick Brownhill at right back in a 442, with Kent on the wing Brownhill wouldn't be in the 11 any way. Against Leeds I would go 3 cb's and wing backs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Fleuriot Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 From my perspective, we let it go. Baker gets a couple of weeks to recover from his recent "niggles". We have two games that we should be able to win without him. Leeds is a pain, but we might be able to pull a win or draw out of the bag there as well. Then he's ready for Fulham, which is looking increasingly important a fixture. Edit - I could have waited and just said "What @WhistleHappy says".

However, he’s our best midfielder and is such a loss when not there, we’d effectively then be without Baker AND Smith. Korey has to stay in the middle. Probably prefer Brownhill at RB and keep Mags out of harms way..! We all know he can do a good job there it' his loss in central midfield that' the problem.

Shocking double standards by the FA given what happened to Wrighty at Fulham. Ever been kicked on the ankle and the force / impact opened up your knee joint? Not saying that happened to Scowen, but might have! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 Just glad we he didn't get the extra game. Never a chance it was going to be overturned, majority of refs would have given a red card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally understand this and know that it'll probably be the choice made, but I just don't feel too confident with this situation. Brownhill and Smith are both very, very important to our midfield, and losing them to a position they are unnatural in concerns me. I know there's a lot of Magnússon hate on this forum, but I like the guy; he's determined, hungry, and wants to improve after every mistake - we saw that after his post after Man City. Surely he deserves a shot at playing CB as a replacement for Baker. It's his natural position, he has a point to prove, and he's young and full of potential. Not to mention his lethal long throws. I reckon Maggers deserves a chance. After all, aren't we meant to be all for developing young talent? I know that Maggers has made mistakes in the past that have made some doubt his ability to play CB in a solid back four. But my gut tells me that playing Maggers in his natural CB position is a much better option than playing a CM/RM at RB. Give the lad a chance.
