Port Said Red Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 I notice from the reserve report that Marvin Brown and Joe Anyinsah were both taken off on the hour last night. As they are both capable of playing right midfield, would it be too great a leap to hope they are involved in DW's plans for Saturday? Another point on a similar subject, as JA played as striker and MB as winger, it seems the mix and match policy is adhered to all the way through the club even by crowd favourite OOOOOOh Shaun Taylor.

Guest Neo Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 Wouldn't be surprised (certainly in Marvin's case) to see him in the full squad on Saturday; maybe even starting in the right wing berth. And not before time IMO. He has the talent and really needs to start proving it now. Whose going to start the Boney-M chants "Brown boys on the wing, tra-la-la-la-la" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x3widRacin Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 That certainly would be interesting to see Marvin thrust back into things hmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O_Faz Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 Joe was taken off after 70 minutes or so due to a Calf injury. Nothing serious however. Maybe they were saving Marvin? We will have to wait till Saturday I suppose, but I think Marvin's our man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigdave60 Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 I would not read to much into Marvin being taken off early last night. He missed an open goal in the first half. In a number of reserve games this season he has not completed the full 90 minutes. I would expect to see him leave City in the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redrobin108 Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 HI mate, I was at the match last night. Citys finishing was woeful and should have had more than the 1 goal. But how can I help ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taz Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 Burnell's had a problem with his back (as the press/club have reported). Perhaps they just wanted to make sure that he didn't aggrevate it again, just in case he is needed for Saturday!? As for Brown playing, he probably is the most likely choice to fill in on the right. Then again I suppose Wilson could go for a back three of Coles, Butler, Hill, and put Carey on the right.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhatWill Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 it seems the mix and match policy is adhered to all the way through the club even by crowd favourite OOOOOOh Shaun Taylor. Could you please point me in the direction of a manager that doesn't mix and match his players all around the pitch sometimes? You certainly can't include Ferguson, Wenger, Ranieri or Sven as managers that don't try players in other positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port Said Red Posted January 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 Sorry PW I think you misunderstood my point, it was intended to be a defence of Dw not an attack on ST. The Manager gets much stick for playing players "out of position" but as you rightly say it is common practice, even for one whom some would like to see replace him.
