Why ? Their fans are not happy Armstrong is now a left winger their all over the shop we can get a result there
Why ? Their fans are not happy Armstrong is now a left winger their all over the shop we can get a result thereAfter reading this thread so far, I can't get another 4-0 defeat out of my head.....
Has MR invited you to give the pre match team talk, edgy? Motivational speaker and all that?!We're exactly the type of team you'd want to be playing on the back of a 5 game losing streak.
Just don't have a killer instinct to take advantage of poor form or fragile confidence.
Time we brought in Johnny Lawrence and John Kreese into the coaching staff.
Not average xG it isn't. His xG is higher but played more games.O’Hares is higher.

Think Armstrong would win that. Dabo has decent pace but is more powerful.Dabo vs Armstrong for speed is droolworthy
Not sure I get this stat. XG is expected goals right? So surely its normal a striker would have one of the highest XG in the squad.Not average xG it isn't. His xG is higher but played more games.

Unless he starts with Dabo, with the intention of replacing him with Pask as soon as he tires. With the extra subs now that is quite possible.As I've already said, I'd play Pask. Fankaty was nowhere near 100% fit on Wednesday - he was the same when he came back from injury last time, in that you could see he was 'managing himself' and didn't want to do any of those quick sprints he does down the line. Short recovery time, and I fear for him/us if he is left to cope with AA. Also risks red card/injury . I've said this to jinx myself, and will be happy to be wrong.
Need Ostigard on him if it is going to be any of the back three.Surely they will play Armstrong up against mcfadz and hyam.
Need Ostigard to nobble him early if it is going to be any of the back three.
Optimistic of a win, but it would be typical City to loss to a team on such poor form.
RWB is the issue for tomorrow with DaCosta injured again (his injury record with us is starting to frustrate me). I don’t think a half fit Dabo is better than a fully fit Pask, or worth risking. It would mean we lose our attacking intent through both wing backs (attacking is not McCallums strength), but if we play through the the middle more as we did against Brentford then that mitigates the issue somewhat.
I would keep the rest of the team the same. I am a Sheaf fan, but him and Kelly (or James) isn’t offensive or creative enough so Hamer has to start despite a few waywood games.
Strikers weren’t involved enough last game, but with Baka low on confidence and Gyokeres not really the right partner for Walker, I imagine it’ll be Biamou and Walker again.
Expecting another big game for O’Hare who has picked up even more recently.
Mowbray was such a breath of fresh air when he joined and the football we played and positively around that period was incredible. But I can’t look past the downward spiral and the fact he bought players like Andre Wright to the club. Shame to see him sacked if we win, but such is football.
As much as I like DaCosta every time he goes down he’s moaning holding some part of his bodyDaCosta is a total injury crock really. How many injuries is that this season?
We might have had bad luck, but many of our new signings have spent significant time in the medical room.
It's a bit weird having lost 4-0 at home to a team, then saying that we should be beating them away. They have the league's second highest goal scorer, yet we have threads saying we can't see where we'll score goals from. Football fans logic for you.

I'm guessing people don't realise, but there's this pandemic that's causing a bit of a fuss. You see, the season got compacted and players are playing more regularly than they normally would. You'd think that wouldn't matter but it really does as they haven't yet perfected footballing robots.
Same with Kelly but needs must I’m sure Dabo starts tomorrowAgree - you only have to look how many players are crocked around the different teams to see how players have been affected. To be honest that's why I'm concerned about playing Dabo tomorrow (if he does) rather than a fit Pask. We play M'boro again midweek and in my opinion it's really asking for trouble with a player who has had a couple of recent injuries. Hopefully the management/medical team will manage him properly, but watching how cautiously Dabo played against Swansea (reminiscent of his previous return from injury) suggests he is an accident waiting to happen.
I’d play Pask at CB, he won’t be much help against Armstrong if he’s wide in a RWB position. I’d drop Hyam though idk who’d play on the left of the 3. Don’t think it’ll happen though.That's why for this game I'd start Pask (fit) as Dabo was clearly not up to speed yesterday and AA could have a field day if we get that bit wrong. Pask, for any other faults, is quick. I also don't want Fankaty to risk injury / getting sent off. Fankaty, fully fit, I wouldn't be concerned about as he is a clever player, but not being 100% fit is not what you want facing Armstrong. Save Fankaty for Boro.
