Hmm, it's a tough one.
Off the top of my head I would say
-------- Oggy
Phillips Peake Kilcline Downes
Bennett Gynn McGrath Pickering
----- Houchen Regis
Not sure about the subs, but 2 of them would probably be Rodger and Sedgley.
I would stick with Charles-Cook. In saying that though, Burge did nowt wrong at all the last 2 or 3 games he was in.
For me Charle-Cook just looks more confident and assured. His command appears better too. That first game his handling was excellent.
I would stick with Charles-Cook...
I was there too. Gutted we missed out that night. If I recall though our penalties were pretty dreadful weren't they? I seem to remember us missing 2 at least.
Just wish we had Armstrong back for Saturday.
As it stands I would go for the following;
-------Charles-Cook
Ricketts, Martin, Reda, Stokes
JOB, Fleck, Vincelot, Murphy
------ Lameiras
------- Fortune
Exactly, stupot.
What you have in your locker when you have a potent goal scorer like Armstrong in your team, is the ability to score goals even when you are not playing well. Players like him can win you matches for you almost single handedly.
What we apparently had last night was a team in...
We had 13 shots again last night and 7 on target. Our goals to shot ratio is worrying.
JOB always seems able to chip in with a few goals from midfield, but at the moment he appears to be badly out of form and Fleck has never scored enough.
I would say the concerns we do have are:
1. Without Armstrong our attack seems a lot more powder puff.
2. Philips is seemingly going backwards.
3. Haynes continues not to impress.
4. Murphy's performances are very inconsistent. Unstoppable one week, out of sorts the next.
5. Tudgay is not a...
TM has actually said though that players were injured. This includes Fortune and Stokes. Vincelot, he says had an op in the summer and needed resting. Reda, we know needs treating carefully.
It seems TM was kinda forced into changes rather than set out to deliberately select a second string 11.
Seems to me that all that was lacking was a killer instinct in front of goal. We were missing our top goal scorer. You have to believe that had Armstrong been playing we would have won.
Can't see how last night can be compared to when Pressley was in charge, because this was very much a second...
