And Its Smith Posted November 7, 2019 Report Share Posted November 7, 2019 Summary - Brownhill not trained all week - Nagy trained last two days - Smith trained for 8 days and looked excellent yesterday - needed a true number 6 against Barnsley to see out game but didn’t have one - been working one on one with Massengo and Semenyo separately this week - Semenyo 3 years behind most 18 year olds in game knowledge due to his lack of academy background - Semenyo development areas is NOT lack of application. Said it is hard for him to hear what fans are saying about him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 7, 2019 Report Share Posted November 7, 2019 Didn't have a number 6, yet he brought off Taylor Moore who has played there before! Not ideal, but better having someone who is a defender shielding the defence than no one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeAman08 Posted November 7, 2019 Report Share Posted November 7, 2019 He is spot on about Semenyo. Is he going to get the coaching he needs at lower league to be a striker? I doubt it so he is better off learning on the fly here and getting some minutes here and there. Maybe reassess next summer after a year of professional training as a striker. Nagy and/or Korey would be a major boost to this side. Cardiff probably not the greatest matchup for them but going forward they could be a fantastic shield in front of the defence.

Semenyo just needs a goal to boost his confidence, once he does I think we'll see a different player. It sounds good, but playing Nagy and Smith together is a little risky consider they haven't played a competitive game together yet. Probably better to ease Korey back in slowly.

Think the problem we have is having a home grown young player in the match day squad...and fitting that around who we have fit and available.

Don’t think it is a massive problem. Pretty sure you need a homegrown player or you can only name 6 subs. Semenyo doesn’t need to be on the bench but obviously worth having there rather than an empty space. 2 hours ago, Tre Bong said: Semenyo just needs a goal to boost his confidence, once he does I think we'll see a different player.

Yea sorry didn’t mean for Sunday. Partly why I mentioned bad matchup just meant going forward. It will be nice to pick 2-3 from Nagy, Smith, Brownhill and Massengo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFCGav Posted November 8, 2019 Report Share Posted November 8, 2019 So do we have to assume no Brownhill, Nagy or Korey Sunday? Yes Korey has trained all week but I can't see him starting. Our midfield will be interesting against the blue ********. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red white and red Posted November 8, 2019 Report Share Posted November 8, 2019 Smith has been out for months and we shouldn’t really chuck him into this sort of combative game. Performing well in training is different than being match ready. This may be one game too soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
