samo II Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 Don't mind the look of that side, though surprised we're not playing 352 again. Strong looking Burnley team; very tough ask today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red-Robbo Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 Just now, JonDolman said: Oh no I think we'll get thrashed. Just not a bad line up to see how a few do and with 2 games coming up, glad we've rested tammy. More happy he has decided to go 4 at the back as I hope that means he is going to stick with that. Sticking with 352 will get us relegated. I don't mind 3 at the back, but we haven't really got wing backs and that system leaves too huge gaps down the flanks when we go forward and lose the ball (as Cotterill's reign proved). With Burnley taking it seriously, I'll go for 4-1 with Bobby getting our consolation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we win 6-5 with a 97th minute halfway line strike from our goalie, those scarfs will end up costing a fortune! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 City fans making a hell of a noise already. Hardly any Burnley fans here at the moment. City fans are on top form making a great atmosphere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YorkshireSection Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 Looks like a damage limitation line up, Reid needs to be playing in the middle and hopefully in a more advanced position or I struggle to think we will create a chance- barring set pieces! Exciting 90 minutes for lucky me to come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BS3rich Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 A lot of pace & energy in midfield. Can see us playing some quick/flowing football today. Think Hegeler and Reid will link up well. Optimistic of a draw here.. C'mon City!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BS10 RED Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 Was hoping earlier in the week we could get a draw from this and a bit of much needed confidence. But after seeing Burnley's line up i'm hoping we can just keep the score below 3-0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Precisely. I've no qualms with that line up at all. Of course, I want us to win every game, but there is plenty of logic in resting Tammy; he got two goals against Wednesday in the last league game, so keeping him fresh for vital league games is wise. Do hope Engvall gets a run out, though; we need him to get minutes to get match ready if we're not bringing any more strikers in this window, though see why he's not started.
