old_eastender Posted February 1, 2023 Report Share Posted February 1, 2023 Expecting Mehmeti to be on the bench Saturday. Hope Cornick is too, would be a travesty to drop Sam Bell from the starting 11 to accommodate him. I see him more as competing with Sykes? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As has been said above Pring will almost certainly come in. We will have 4 more players available for selection than the WBA game & so someone (probably King) as well as the youngsters won’t make the bench.

Silvio Dante Posted February 1, 2023 Report Share Posted February 1, 2023 I’d go unchanged. If you get the shirt for whatever reason and perform you deserve to keep it. That was our best performance of the season as a team, so barring injury, for me you keep the same team. Pring definitely unlucky not to be in but I think you have to reward that performance. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonBristolian Posted February 1, 2023 Report Share Posted February 1, 2023 I reckon we will be unchanged but the fact the window closed on a Monday gives four days for Cornick and Mehmeti to make a case for themselves in training.

sglosbcfc Posted February 1, 2023 Report Share Posted February 1, 2023 The bench will be stronger than it has been for quite a while. That will be needed as we seek to get to Wembley twice for the FA Cup Final and Play off final 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1960maaan Posted February 1, 2023 Report Share Posted February 1, 2023 Bench looks decent. Haikin, DaSilva, Kalas, Cornick, Mehmeti, Weimann, Williams. Balance , game changers and can cover most positions. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I would expect Pring to come in…he didn’t lose the shirt. Sykes, Tanner, Scott and Williams have all come straight back in this season, although Tanner’s was straight after the World Cup.

sh1t_ref_again Posted February 1, 2023 Report Share Posted February 1, 2023 Funny how some think Jay should keep the place after an OK performance saturday over 1 of our best performers in many recent games, when DaSilva will not be here next year, yet HNM who was also not part of the future is was right to banish him! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port Said Red Posted February 1, 2023 Report Share Posted February 1, 2023 Our first chance of doing the double over Preston for what seems like a long time. Saturday's performance seems to have excited people as well, as the club have had some more coaches for the trip. Maybe even more after the transfer activity? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balance , game changers and can cover most positions. Reminds me of the retiring Tony Pulis. In Stoke’s premier league years before every game when asked about the opposition he’d reply “you’ve only got to look at their bench, quality throughout” Seemed like every bloody week he’d come out with that line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect Mehmeti, Weimann and Williams will be starters when fit and/or acclimatised to the level, especially now Semenyo has left and we look to have moved to 4-3-3.

Pring & Weimann in for Dasilva & Sykes, the rest unchanged from WBA, Cornick & Mehmeti on the bench. Interesting use of capital letters..

WECANDO Posted February 1, 2023 Report Share Posted February 1, 2023 Sykes played pretty well against WBA. Set up Scott for his goal. Also scored a few recently. Leave him in and only make a change by bringing in Pring. All players starting know there are good players on the bench and must keep their performances at a high level. If you play well you keep your place. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good problem to have?? Absolutely, no right or wrong answer for me. Though has already been pointed out if we lose the “he should have done this” merchants will be out in force on Saturday night. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
