ciderbeans Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 I see it being a 4-2-1-3. o'neil and brownhill sitting in midfield, front three of kodjia, Abraham and o'dowda interchanging and tomlin free role behind the striker in the centre. Quote Link to comment

formerly known as ivan Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Brownhill was far from impressive last week and the whole time he was on the field the game passed him by. Would feel better if Pack was in the middle alongside O'Neil. Little at right back also concerning. If Matthews is that unfit makes the decision to let Ayling leave even more of a strange one given the lack of defensive cover. 3 Quote Link to comment

MigratedRobin Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 That's the strongest looking City bench that I've seen in a while! Quote Link to comment

A marmite (pronounced mar-meet) is a traditional crockery casserole dish found in France. It is famed for its "pot-belly" shape.

If Little's shoulder injury is sorted and he's got his pace back deserves his chance. Brownhill can't be judged on one appearance, Baker and Matthews were rubbish the first time they played last season. Quote Link to comment

He said Little was playing with his injury when he came back last season and deserve a chance to prove his fitness. Quote Link to comment

Red Skin Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 With Kodjia and Abraham playing against McFadzean we'll get either a penalty or McFadzean sent off, or both. I really wouldn't like to be him. Quote Link to comment

Can see us conceding at least two, not saying we won't score three, but we look wide open. Quote Link to comment

My guess would be one of the full backs on the bench would. If Magnusson was injured I'd expect Golbourne to come on, if Flint did, I think we'd be buggered (!) but it would probably depend on the score, amount of time left etc, but expect Matthews would come on and Little go into the middle.

Could well be Graham, I only mooted Pack because I thought LJ had mentioned the possibility of him playing there recently. 1 Quote Link to comment
Benni Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 I'm a little bit nervous for this one but we should win it. We have a strong team out there and it will be interesting to see Kodjia and Abraham play together up front. There will be goals in this game.. Quote Link to comment

Brownhill was playing in an attacking position last week, not his natural role. This is where he was meant to play, and though Pack is stronger, I think Brownhill will show his desire for the ball, like a Kante rather than a Matic. Also, to those who say we look thin in midfield... Gary O Neill is a strong guy in the tackle. 1 Quote Link to comment
Lympsham Red Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Can someone tell Richard Hoskin that it's Callum O'Dowda, not Josh O'Dowda! Second time he's got his name wrong! Quote Link to comment
