EmersonsRed Posted September 19, 2019 Report Share Posted September 19, 2019 3 minutes ago, Kingswoodactor said: Going forward until Jan I think our best options are: Sticking with 3-5-2, Fam and Weimann as a front 2. Palmer behind. Or, a front 3 of COD, Weimann, and Semenyo/Eliasson. Can’t really see us playing a 4-3-3 as it eliminates Palmer from probably playing. Or Weimann up top by himself but with Cod, Palmer and Eliasson behind in an attacking mid 3. Kind of like the idea of this, but would probably require a 4-2-3-1. Can we do this with a back 3? Hmmm. Can I put Fam in my FPL team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be considered more of a recruitment error rather than anything to do with the fitness trainers. But all in all it is really awful luck, nothing to do with the player, the fitness trainers or the recruitment. Poor Benik, if this is his 3rd one in his career by the time he is 26 he could have a really hard time of it going into what is meant to be the peak of his career. As has been pointed out, when you get one, it makes the likelihood of it happening again increase. The club would know that and knew it was a gamble having him here. It was a gamble they lost unfortunately, but no one could predict that. We have to bear in my mind he was a last minute rabbit-from-the-hat loan after the first target was lured away.

supercidered Posted September 19, 2019 Report Share Posted September 19, 2019 Very depressing news and feel that we won't do any better than last season. Too much reliance on Afobe being that final piece of the jigsaw. On deadline Day he was probably 4th choice but then he became our big hope to push us on in to the top 6. Which ever way you look at this now or dress it up. We are going to have to make do and make do won't be good enough to challenge IMO. Hopefully, I will be proved wrong but it feels pretty bleak from a goal threat point of view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ska Junkie Posted September 19, 2019 Report Share Posted September 19, 2019 9 hours ago, BCFC Richard said: Basically the way peoples reactions to RR's posts wind you up, and you feel clutter up and derail threads is how many, many posters feel about RR posts. Its hard not to say something sometimes and he goes out of his way to wind up posters he knows he has a particular effect on and consitantly posts in threads saying how they are pointless and he has no interest in them. It doesn't 'wind me up' Rich but it's a bit unnecessary for every post the bloke makes, don't you think? There's always someone who jumps on the bandwagon.

Red Army 87 Posted September 19, 2019 Report Share Posted September 19, 2019 I'd be tempted to go with Weimann and Semenyo up top on Saturday, with Palmer behind. Less physicality but there will be good movement for Palmer to find the strikers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Isewater Posted September 19, 2019 Report Share Posted September 19, 2019 It is really horrible news for the player and the club . I wish Benik a quick and total recovery. I fear we will not see him in a City shirt again and I am very sad about that . We are not the luckiest club in history are we ? Let’s hope everyone pulls together to get strength from adversity.

It's disappointing, but not disastrous. We have a ready-made replacement in Diedhiou and cover in the no 10 position if we need it. Does anyone remember season 2007-08, when we got to the play-offs with Darren Byfield top scoring with 8 goals? It's all about the squad, not one individual. Now is the time to get behind Diedhiou and give him all the individual support that we can. He is a good player, with the potential to be even better.

He acts like he owns the forum and is allowed to do whatever he wants and openly admits to trolling and has to make every thread about him and derails every thread but nothing is done about it as he is part of the clique of the Supporters Bars where they are all.buddy buddy... I'm sure it's not all MODS but if you think he isnt treated differently then you are mistaken. Thank you for replying @TETBURY MASSIVE Going forward there are really two things that need to be done. If anyone has a problem with someone posting they need to "report" the post and explain why. Even though between us we are on this site a lot I am sure we do miss some things. With the report, people also need to sometimes explain why there is a problem - when we get notified of a report it only shows the post in question, so sometimes it isn't easy to understand why there is a problem with a post if there is no indication why a post has been reported. Of course the other option is to put anyone who you don't want to see on "ignore", that way you will only ever see when they have their posts quoted and not anything else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
