Taylor10 Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 Just wondering what everyone's thoughts are with regards to what the team should be tomorrow? Pretty uneventful friday night so just putting it out there. I would go..... James Carey, Fonts, McManus, McAllister Foster, Cisse, Davis, Pearson Pitman, Stead Subs- Gerken, Nyatanga, Bryan, Adomah, Wood I was very impressed with Bryan the other night, and I wouldn't be surprised at all if he starts and I am sure he will only get better with games. But given the strength of Cardiff's midfield and the ability of Whittingham, I personally think the experience of Davis is too important for us to leave him out. I still think Foster and Pearson could provide the same discipline and work rate from wide. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nibor Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 I would probably bring Adomah in for Foster myself but otherwise the same I think. I didn't think Foster did that well on the wing, and I think we need to have a real go at Cardiff. Carey can probably cope with Adomah's slightly weaker defending.

I agree, do need to have a go, and your right about Foster he wasn't great. But he does at least provide a balance. Would obviously be tempted to go with Adomah if I was del but in a 4-4-2 I worry about us being a bit too exposed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somerset Red Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 The team worked well Tuesday, didn't miss Albert strolling back, totally out of position at all. Keep it as it started,no need for a change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Bristol Red Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 NEVER CHANGE A WINNING TEAM!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFC Jordan Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 Almost unchanged except for Albert in for Foster or Carey. We were crying out for Albert at times on Tuesday night whilst on the counter attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbored Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 I'm in the camp of not changing a winning team but I'm not so sure that McInnes is. With Davis and Albert fully fit again I would expect at least one, if not both to start the game. It would be Bryan to make his way to the bench.

Gillies Downs Leeds Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 Unchanged for me. Don't think Albert is anywhere near fit, he looked none too keen to come on the other night imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is fully fit for davis though who didn't play a game for two years before coming to us and then after a game or two already back on the side lines.if fit Adomah back in for Foster but otherwise would keep team unchanged.

bangers Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 2 games in a week could be too much for Bryan, especially against a strong midfield like Cardiff. Davis in for Bryan with Pearson on the left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Tansley Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 Agree with your selection, and definitely wouldn't bring Albert back in regardless of fitness. Foster did well defending and has enough pace to help out on the break. If Bryan plays I wouldn't be at all doubtful of his ability to cope. Think he was strong.

Macca Matt Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 I would start with the same team as Tuesday, gives the players the belief and confidence following on from that game, and there's the added bonus of having a fit Albert on the bench to come on against tired Cardiff legs should we need it, whether it's to change the game, run the game down or just to take the piss (hopefully it's one of the latter!)

OldlandReddies Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Can't and won't break the oldest rule in football and change a winning side. The side that started against Leicester will start again. Our bench with the 1 change of Davis for Bolassie looks very handy and will give Del plenty of options.

!james Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Pearson had one of his best games for us in the middle and got MoM, not sure I would move him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westonred Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Why change a winning team ? Keep it as it is i say. We created more on Tuesday Night without Adomah, than we have in any match recently so why bring him back in, We look more solid with Foster on the right and Alberts always useful to bring on with 20 mins left against a tired fullback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCAGFC Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Have a feeling Del will go back to 451 as Baaaardiff have one of the strongest midfields in the division and will aim to stop them playing instead of making them worry about us..

REDOXO Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 NEVER CHANGE A WINNING TEAM!! Exactly! The 11 that started on Tuesday have earned their start today. Nothing will demoralize a footballer more than being dropped from a winning team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashton1 Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Agree with your selection, and definitely wouldn't bring Albert back in regardless of fitness. Foster did well defending and has enough pace to help out on the break. If Bryan plays I wouldn't be at all doubtful of his ability to cope. Think he was strong. +1 Didn't think Albert made a positive difference when he came on, on Tuesday Lost a bit of balance in fact ! Alberts time may come again, but not in this team line up playing a real 442. If he's fit them maybe an impact sub All IMO of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chipdawg Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Don't see why Del would change anything unless he had a specific concern regarding Cardiff. If he keeps the same starting team and we lose, he's at the least displayed loyalty to his players. Change a winning team and we lose, the fault lies solely with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
