barneyrubble Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Selection dilemma for Lj today . Keep winning team or bring back record signing. Or is there an option to play all 3. Would be interesting to see Fammy up top with Matty and Weimann either side don't know if it would work in terms of our midfield but it would certainly give there defence some work. Thoughts on could we fit them in or does Lj have to choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvio Dante Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 We could. We shouldn’t We won’t Doing so would be a page out of Lee Johnson Tombola 101 from two seasons ago. We have a large chunk of new players who are still adapting to each other, we’re just off two away wins and a very good performance. Changing striker from Matty to Fam I could understand but live with. Changing system would be the act of a madman. So I look forward to three strikers at half one...

Garland-sweden Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Really hope that we get movement with the ball and players today. Not like the Boro game when we had possesion of the ball but mutch did not happened. Fast passes and movement I hope we can play, If we do that think we will win. Two upfront the best I think. It would be nice If some of our midfilders would score today. COYR!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Army 75 Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Keep the same side. IMO Taylor has done very well recently. And deserves to start today. Up to Famara to win his place back . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dilemma is that Famara , in the club's eyes at least , has been harshly treated by the FA and would have been starting for us based on form so didn't deserve to lose his place on the team . Equally , Matty Taylor has been playing well since deputising for FD and doesn't deserve to lose his place either. Given that everyone is fit , Weiman was limping last match , I would keep the same side with Fammy coming on at 70 mins to get his chance. If AW is not 100% then pair Matty with Famara and job's a good 'un. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbored Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Quite right Major. Tough call for LJ but whoever he selects up top some fans will slag him off................ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickolas Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Famara back in please. Taylor is no Fammy im afraid. We’ve been crying out for, in LJ’s words, ‘physicality’. Match fitness or not i’d put him in. He can last an hour for sure. I’d expect more even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loosey Boy Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Can see Fam starting, playing an hour before MT comes on ...... personally, I think that we should stick with the winning team of the last couple of games.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Army 87 Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 At home and with Eliassons crossing ability, Fam has to start for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hinsleburg Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Thought Taylor’s movement last week, particularly first half, was brilliant. I would keep the same team and bring Diedhiou on after an hour or so if needed. We were outstanding last week so I don’t see the sense in changing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always Believesham Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Although the football was naff at QPR, I think the approach showed the kind of pragmatism we needed to play with, following the Boro game. We than started with the same pragmatic approach against Swansea - in the first 10 minutes it wasn’t about keeping possession, it was about keeping the ball out of our 3rd of the pitch and harassing Swansea’s back line. It worked, we were able to keep them at arms length because we’d already scored. I think Diedhiou will be played instead of Taylor and Weimann will play Taylor’s role in chasing down, causing panic. FD would be ideal for winning and holding the ball up. I’m with @Red Army 87, looking forward to seeing Elliasson’s crossing ability meet Diedhiou’s power in the air. Incidentally, I think Elliasson will have more success on the right because of the added presence in the box. Taylor on for Weimann after 70mins to up the reinvigorate the attack - as long as it’s not gone horribly wrong, both score wise and injury wise.
