The Fat Controller Posted September 20, 2019 Report Share Posted September 20, 2019 Diedhiou will play if Afobe doesn't. Rowe won't be dropped either as he has done fairly well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Robin Posted September 20, 2019 Report Share Posted September 20, 2019 Unchanged from Stoke, or change the attacking trio with Weimann in a central position and Palmer + Eliasson on the flanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nibor Posted September 20, 2019 Report Share Posted September 20, 2019 I'd like to see us play Weimann centrally with Semenyo and Eliasson wide and Palmer at the head of the midfield trying to thread them through. I don't want to see us playing direct balls to Fam with nobody near him, it doesn't work well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be a good partnership there. Fam will play his part but I hope he’s not the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to see us trying to make a more sophisticated possession based attack work...not got anything against Fam as an option but too often the ball just seems to bounce off him.

sh1t_ref_again Posted September 20, 2019 Report Share Posted September 20, 2019 Hope Fam is on the bench, if we go back to the style of play, lumping balls at him then can only see a loss, we need clever movement in front of Palmer, so would prefer Weimann & Semenyo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O'Dowda left wing back for me too. Or even left back if we go to a 4. Looked very comfortable there against Boro who then switched their attacks to the other side once they knew O'Dowda was not so easy to run at. Not against Semenyo starting. Will probably be Fam. Could Eliasson play off of Weimann? Maybe that wouldn't work, who knows. And I still think Szmodics looks some player from that 45 mins against Derby in preseason. Still some very good options and LJ needs to find a blend that works now Afobe out. What I think might happen is LJ tries numerous different combinations until something looks right. As long as the defensive unit is mainly similar most games then this might be the best thing to do. I don't want him to persist with a strike force that kind of does a job every game. If he goes with Fam and Weimann and it looks really good, then great. But otherwise I'd want to see a different combination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedEyez Posted September 21, 2019 Report Share Posted September 21, 2019 Nothing against HNM, but I would take him out the team for this one and go for experience in the middle. Assuming Nagy is still out, I’d put Tommy Rowe in at CM and COD LWB. 3-5-2 Bentley Moore Williams Baker Hunt COD Rowe Brownhill KP45 Fam Weimann Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a bit static / reactionary from the bits and pieces I’ve seen. Lots of ability, and as @Olé would say - he’s a specimen!! He has something.

I would start with Fam today. Your post yesterday Re 5212 v Derby in pre-season jogged my memory. Interestingly I saw it as more 532...and Rowe broke forward more than Szmodics. So perhaps WBs with Fam / Andi up front can work. Hope so! Agree, let’s fine the right “forward” set-up....hopefully one that Palmer continues to thrive in.

Just said Antoine hadn’t developed that part of his game....yet. Fam needs to run the channels more, give that option. His modus operandi is to come short.

Szmodics in behind Fam and Weimann. Rowe was covering Dasilva a lot I thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
