"Even if the football is a bit crap"?Assuming Onyeka signs I’d drop Grimes but not change shape. Kamikaze seems to work at home against teams that aren’t Ipswich even if the football is a bit crap.
Rushworth
MvE Thomas Lats Dasilva
Onyeka Torp
Saka Rudoni EMC/Esse
Wright
Chuck some of our many wingers on and swap strikers at 60/70 mins like always.
Incredible record. Well done Gaffa.Over a year in charge and still only lost at home to Leeds, Burnley and Ipswich. As bad as the away form is, Oxford are not coming to the CBS and adding to that list.
Personally I'd play Onyeka up front and Gary Breen at centre halfI had a terrible dream about the game last night. We were really awful and Oxford went 2 goals up.
We got one back with about 12 mins to go and then gave them a right battering, but couldn't force the equaliser. We lost 1-2 and were truly dreadful
After the game there was a stunned silence and when we all looked at the other scores and saw that both Boro and Hull had overtaken us, the reality sank in and everyone was just so down, with heads in hands and a few tears to boot
It actually made me wake up with a headache.
Anyway, I think to come away with points from this game we need this lineup.

That gives us a decent chance.
@fernandopartridge is this true?Lets be realistic FP is not dropping Grimes whoever we buy

Lampard will have noticed that recently Grimes hasn't been the same player as he was in the 1st half of the season. If we do bring in Onyeka he will go into the side ASAP. He is on another level to the players we already have and is fit to start straight away. He wants to leave a decent Prem side so he can play games. He wouldn't be coming to us to sit on the bench.Lets be realistic FP is not dropping Grimes whoever we buy
Dropping him or resting him? It's clear he needs to be given a rest, even if that means a couple of early substitutions.Lets be realistic FP is not dropping Grimes whoever we buy
Agreed he won't becoming to sit on the bench , Onyeka will play with himLampard will have noticed that recently Grimes hasn't been the same player as he was in the 1st half of the season.

I think Lampard will play Onyeka alongside Grimes. I just can't see FL resting Grimes even if it's blatantly obvious to every man and his dog that Grimes is running on fumes and other midfielders have performed better than him recently.Lampard will have noticed that recently Grimes hasn't been the same player as he was in the 1st half of the season.

I agree with thatDropping him or resting him? It's clear he needs to be given a rest, even if that means a couple of early substitutions.
Onyeka is closer to the position Grimes plays than anyone else. Lampard didn't see Grimes and Sheaf in the same side as fitting the way we play.Agreed he won't becoming to sit on the bench , Onyeka will play with him
Onyeka will play with Grimes in Eccles role.Onyeka is closer to the position Grimes plays than anyone else. Lampard didn't see Grimes and Sheaf in the same side as fitting the way we play.
Only if Boro win both of theirs.Lose this one and then to the Smoggies a fortnight today and we would be 6 points off top!
Yes but one is against us!Only if Boro win both of theirs.
