Red Army 75 Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 Really looks like a 3-5-2 line up to me Quote Link to comment
cidercity1987 Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 I remember when LJ tried this versus them and it was the shittest 1-0 defeat ever. Somehow it feels different in our current position, bring on the slogfest 1 Quote Link to comment

Will the improvement (I'm not convinced, but people seem to think) under NP, finally deliver a result to match and begin a good run of results, as we can build on it, with some confidence, during international break. Or, will we get stuffed, with ex players rubbing salt in the wound, turning things very sour. Of course we could lose, yet still see positives - but if we get tonked, with no real sign of game on game progress, then how long can the results under NP remain tenable..? Fingers crossed for at least a point today and a relatively positive atmosphere around the camp going into the break. Pearson needs time and if he is not given time he will not be able to turn this club around. Cannot understand those who keep making suggestions a bad result could mark mean his end. Proven , experienced successful at this level and above. Let's support HIM and the team. COYR 16 1 Quote Link to comment

Davefevs Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 Pretty sure it’ll be 4411, with Baker at LB: Weimann James King Pring Massengo Martin or Massengo James King Pring Weimann Martin or Weimann James Massengo Pring King Martin or fluid between all three. Cardiff: 343 Sang and Bagan at WB, but Giles and Bacuna wide forwards. If you line up ours v theirs both line-ups go man-for-man except both have a CB spare. 1 Quote Link to comment

I want any manager to do well here. I was delighted when we got NP - he'd always have been one of the top names on my wishlist. His record, so far, is utterly appealing and can't just carry on in the name of being given time to turn things around. No home wins for the equivalent of half a season is unacceptable. Nor is just 1 win in the last god nows how many games.. 15..? A win today would be massive, for him. Another lacklustre defeat simply can't be deemed as acceptable for too much longer.

ExiledAjax Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 Glad he's got all 3 of the big boys on the pitch. I suspect we'll start with 4 at the back, although the personnel are there to switch to 3 with wing backs if we want to do so. I'm a little concerned about who is going to support Martin. I'd have liked maybe one of Scott or Semenyo on to make runs around him. I guess it's Weimann in behind him but I think Pring will need to push on and help as well. Quote Link to comment

No other option really. That says to me that JD is not good enough and I don’t believe that for a minute. He has made his living at a high level of professional football despite his size. However, he was very good v Reading and not so pukka v Swansea. He needs to up his game on a regular basis. There is more to come from the lad. Quote Link to comment
wendyredredrobin Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 Looks like COD's injury is taking a bit longer to clear up than I was expecting. I think he might improve this team when fit, though if Ireland have a game soon, he might suddenly recover. Quote Link to comment

BCFC Grim Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 That's a depressing looking line up isn't it. Don't get me wrong, with the quality we have that's probably the best chance of getting a result but you wouldn't catch me tuning in if i wasn't a city fan. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment
Simon79 Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 So what’s the view on changing our team to counteract the opposition? Seem to remember previous managers getting a fair bit of stick because of that. COYR 2 Quote Link to comment
