Lympsham Red Posted August 15, 2016 Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 If I was Lee Johnson, I'd want to go nice and solid, with something like this: (4-2-3-1) Adam Matthews Hordur Magnusson Aden Flint Scott Golbourne Marlon Pack Gary O'Neil Callum O'Dowda Lee Tomlin Luke Freeman Tammy Abraham Subs: Max O'Leary, Mark Little, Derrick Williams, Joe Bryan, Bobby Reid, Josh Brownhill, Jonathan Kodjia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think his only good performance out there came against Sheffield Wednesday. In the middle vs Huddersfield and out on the right against Bolton were another two where he was quality. Fulham away when he was out on the left we were instantly much better once Odemwingie came on and Tomlin moved into the middle. 22 hours ago, JoeAman08 said: Stop stating what the manager and Lee Tomlin have said. Clearly his best and preferred position is behind the striker. OTIB said so. Of course he'd be deadly in a central attacking role but he prefers it on the left and LJ has said that as well. Reid is our best option to play behind the striker in an attacking lineup. I personally think he's better behind the strikers & not very effective out on the left as we've seen so far this season. But this comment interests me, I've seen this mentioned a lot on here but never saw the actual interviews. Where do LJ & LT say this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeAman08 Posted August 15, 2016 Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 46 minutes ago, Carey 6 said: No he didn't. Watch the highlights. He is on the left and he's allowed to drift inwards when he needs to. He's done this already this season. He was on the right at times against Wigan and was almost playing the Pack role at times on that second half in the same game. Same as Huddersfield last year. They've said it a few times at the end of last season in various interviews. No question he'd be effective just behind the striker and indeed does pop up there but he prefers it on the left and when we kick off that's where you will see him starting.

Unsure on whether I'd go with Bobby or Brownhill, would need to be a willing runner in the middle of the park as well as offering similar width as Joe would. In fairness, the line up above could be far too attacking and could see us picked apart. But just another idea really! I think we may get hammered with that team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarmyArmy Posted August 15, 2016 Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 ROD Matthews Flint Mags Golbourne Brownhill Pack O'Neil Bryan Tomlin Abraham Brownhill out of position, but more defensively sound than O'Dowda.

Bs4Red Posted August 15, 2016 Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 ROD AM AF HM SG CO MP GO JB LT . TA Personnaly think this is the best side possible to play Norwich, I watched them again Sheff Wed and they were not that great. I think we have to play with a workmanlike back 4 and steely CM pairing. Pace would be the key to opening them up. Slow at the back. Id rather see us go there and give as good as we got than go and lose 1-0/2-0 and defend for 90 minutes. We are in a position after the first two games where we can afford to have a go at all 3 of the relegated sides. You can do this and still be defensively solid. However I don't think from what I saw of Norwich that we are majorly behind them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kodjia 22 Posted August 16, 2016 Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 I don't think we are sound enough defensively to go there and try to keep them out. We have to go at them and play our own style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unan Posted August 16, 2016 Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 2 hours ago, cynic said: Seems like Norwich are a threat down their right side with Hoolahan and Pinto so playing Golbourne and Bryan on the left would make sense. I'd go for one up top for this game with Kodjia and Pack with O'Neil in front of the back four. O'Dowda and Tomlin with Bryan behind Kodjia. 4-2-3-1 to match their line up - but guess LJ may well go for 4-5-1. Very difficult game, be really pleased with a draw but not expecting it. Couldn't agree more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1960maaan Posted August 16, 2016 Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 I think we will be managing TA's game time carefully, by the sound of it we had to jump through a few hoops to get him here. I wouldn't be surprised to see him on the bench to begin with. ROD AM AF HM SG MP GON COD LT JB JK changing to 4-5-1 out of possession Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
