Personally think Bentley is more than competent at this level, think we have a decent squad on paper now with a couple more to come in too....time to deliver

The only thing with Bentley yesterday was that he held onto the ball too long and kicked aimlessly in the first half - which was unlike him tbf and added to the lack of tempo.

Second half he was much better in that respect.

Generally, as you say, he is as good as most at this level but its just my opinion that Maenpaa is better and amongst the best in the division. But he's in the past now unfortunately.

Seems more or less a consensus on the defence and midfield.

But appears to be healthy debate on the two up top.

I'm sticking to Martin and Wells.

 

Holden said Martin had been keeping himself in shape, but he’d be seeing up to speed he is tomorrow in training.

Well, if he isn't up to the game saturday then I would go with Weimann and Wells.

I just like the combination of Martin and Wells - just think they would be a good match given their attributes.

I only believe that a player has signed for City either on loan or permanently when it’s announced on the OS......

Surely I’m not the only poster who takes zero interest in social media ‘reports’ or speculation and rumour.

I was referring to you commenting about Mason and pretending that you didn't know what he really meant.

A bit early and there may be one or two more incoming, but given the players we now have on board it looks like we have a lot of choices for the Coventry game.

How about;

.................Bentley

.....Kalas   Moore   Mawson

Hunt   Nagy   Morrell   Dasilva

..............Paterson

...........Martin   Wells

Although I can't see him leaving Weimann out.

No Fammy?

Assuming Sessegnon signs I think both him & Martin, who presumably hasn’t continued to train with Derby as he was out of contract, are unlikely starters.

Although personally I wouldn’t start with Weimann in midfield all the indications are that Holden will, so assuming no shock departures this week or further injuries I think it will be;

Bentley

Hunt Moore Kalas Mawson Dasilva 

Weimann Morrell Paterson 

Diedhiou Wells

Subs from O’Leary, Vyner, Massengo, Nagy, Rowe, Palmer, Martin, Eliasson, Semenyo & presumably Sessegnon.

With Brunt now on board and DH intimating that Martin and Mawson probably won't be fit enough for the weekend, I'm now going for;

 

.................Bentley

......Kalas   Moore   Brunt

Hunt   Massengo   Morrell   Dasilva

................Paterson

..........Weimann   Wells

 

Caveat: Pending any more signings..

Like Martin and Mawson I would be surprised if Brunt is ready to play, has he had any form of preseason?

Our midfield 3 really will be a conundrum now


Elliason
Massengo
Nagy
Paterson
Szmodics
Morrell
Palmer
Walsh
Rowe
Bakinson
Williams
Towler
Wiemann
O'Dowda
Brunt
Adelakun

That list is crazy, im pretty sure that morrell and paterson will be in on saturday, but ive no idea who with? Surely niclas is our most talented ball player, but massengo is the future. Walsh was fantastic last year and will be wanting game time too.

He said that Mawson has only had 45 mins match time for Fulham this pre-season and that Martin had the best chance of being available out of him, Williams, and Mawson.

Sounded to me like none of them will be starting (we know about Williams anyway) but 4 days of training may change that.

Am I the only one who feels we won't see quite as many of our new & loan signings slot straight into the starting XI?

Expecting Vyner to play, especially if Kalas is blocked following the Czech squad quarantine. Do we know what's happening there?

Fitness of Mawson questioned too after lack of game time.

I think you are right, Chris M is the most likely IMO and then I’d expect him to start on the bench. Kalas didn’t play last night but we await news on whether he will be eligible to play.

Yeah I can see Martin getting a start if Fam contract negotiations are ongoing. Not sure Semenyo should be starting atm over someone of his experience (if fit)

This feels the most difficult it’s been in a long while! There are multiple available players I’d be happy to see start that aren’t in my 11 (Sess, Nagy, O’Leary, Martin) but I think I’d go (5-3-2 of course):

Bentley - Hunt, Moore, Kalas, Mawson, Dasilva - Morrell, Pato, Massengo - Wells, Fam.

Max, Sess, Vyner, Brunt, Nagy, Weimann, Martin.

Morrell and Massengo in the same midfield at home to Coventry would be really negative. I’d say Nagy or Morrell along with Weimann and Pato is what we’ll see on Saturday. I’d like Walsh to then replace Weimann when fit and Williams to be first choice as DMF also.

I did consider that, I think I’d make a very defensive and somewhat boring coach. I’d like to think Pato, Fam and Wells would be enough for the goals and that team could realistically bring about a clean sheet.

I guess a lot depends on the roles they are given.  Morrell showed in the FA Cup game v Bolton, he’s more than capable of breaking the lines and bursting forward....so you could play him more advanced than Massengo for example.

Team selection is going to be interesting for sure! We need to get the best out of Wells and I don’t think he has clicked with Fam yet; I would start with Weimann alongside him with Martin to come off the bench. Mawson to start in Baker’s position. Brunt to give us balance on the left of the 3 in midfield. I’d like to see Morrell start (although suspect Massengo might given Morrell and Nagy have been away). I’d keep Hunt in as he played well last week. Here goes: 

                        Bentley 

              Moore Kalas Mawson

     Hunt                                     Dasilva

           Paterson  Morrell  Brunt 
                   Weimann  Wells

I like that lineup, very attacking. But I feel they'd go through our midfield like butter.

Not so sure kalas will play . Self isolating ain’t he ?
