daored Posted April 3, 2019 Report Share Posted April 3, 2019 On the back of two fantastic results away from home, Wigan await us on Saturday. We simply have to win this game with West Brom and Villa following. Johnson is likely to have to make changes, for me if there is any doubt about Weimann and Smith we simply do not risk them, which will be difficult as Pack is suspended ? I think we’ll stick with the 3 at the back as suspect Wigan will dig in and put bodies behind the ball. 3-4-1-2 for me, bring in Morrell for Pack. Taylor for Didehiou and Paterson to play a more advanced role O’Leary Webster Kalas Wright Hunt Morrell Brownhill Da Silva Paterson or Palmer Taylor Didehiou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerseybean Posted April 3, 2019 Report Share Posted April 3, 2019 Just need to remind myself and anyone else who is interested that we are Bristol City so a home game against Wigan, following two brilliant away wins, is not going to be a straightforward affair. I really am not being pessimistic just realistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really am not being pessimistic just realistic. That’s the point of why I posted the thread, Wigan will come and sit back play for a draw and try and win late on. The emphasis will be on us to break them down and I’m sure there’ll be an expectation we’ll win comfortably from a section of our fan base. Add in Weimann and Smith both went off injured (the later who has just come back from a long term lay off) we’ll likely to have to make changes. @BS4 on Tour... Taylor for Weimann if any doubt about his injury. @INCRED good news if Pack isn’t suspended Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviestevieneville Posted April 3, 2019 Report Share Posted April 3, 2019 Wigan’s last 8 away games = 2 points and -10 goal difference. LJ said last night he could well make lots of changes. Wigan will no doubt sit in and frustrate. Perhaps a game for the with his movement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoxton casual Posted April 3, 2019 Report Share Posted April 3, 2019 Will need fresh legs and an early goal. Are system seems to based around possession and Famara as our target man. Back to 4 with FBs pushing. Who plays around Fam? Weimann if fit and would imagine Pato. I would like to see Palmer in if we cant break them down -and Taylor.

BCFC101 Posted April 3, 2019 Report Share Posted April 3, 2019 Re Pack - while the cut off point has now passed and he wouldn't be suspended for a 10th yellow anymore, as far as I can see last night was only his 9th yellow in the league anyway so the cut off doesn't matter. As of this season, yellow cards are counted separately for each competition, so his booking against Bolton in the cup doesn't count towards it. He'll play on Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's just had 2 in 2 games since the cut off so if he gets booked 3 more times in the next 8 games he'll get a 2 game ban! Lets hope he doesn't miss the play offs eh?

As I mentioned above just before your post, he's only on 9 league bookings this season including those 2 from Sheff U and Boro, he'd need another 6 from 8 to get a ban. He'll be fine for the rest of the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fordy62 Posted April 3, 2019 Report Share Posted April 3, 2019 As few changes as possible. Rest players by subbing them if the game is won. We must win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted April 3, 2019 Report Share Posted April 3, 2019 Well you got to hope and expect that the players will be up for this now, it’s in their hands once again. Wigan will be no mugs though as they aren’t safe yet. The players should be confident, but hopefull not overly so, this is no walk in the park. It will either be a tight game or our once a season thrashing of someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
