2-1 cov,

[Torquay Sky Blue]

Lati hasn't played with Grimes before. Hopefully might find it an improvement

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

I mean, it has got car crash all over it.

Probably means we are going to win.

 

[fernandopartridge]

It’s not nonsense in relation to the seasonal flue vaccine or COVID…

Yes it is, like I said I have real experience.

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Is saka ill too or injured?

Was wondering the same. Never seen such a sickness bug hit us in prior seasons. It's really rampant. Have other teams been hit as bad as we have by this? Does anybody know? Looks like Soton will be near full strength. I fear a mauling. Would be very happy with a point.

 

[torchomatic]

FFS. on the way down we were talking about Lati. Apparently his last appearance was against Middlesbrough in May for one minute.

Glad I didn't know the team before we got here.

 

[SkyBlueStallion_89]

We have a lot more syllables in defence than normal.

Oggy will need a rest at half time I reckon

 

[jordan210]

Did Lati get any minutes for Jamaica? Or played in u21’s

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Let’s be honest. Lati or Woolfenden in for either of the back 2 is not desirable but not the end of the world.

Both of them in is a disaster

 

[Sbarcher]

Not going to judge yet. Let's see how it pans out.

 

[Sick Boy]

Give it a rest ffs

 

[jordan210]

So we saying 1-0 Lati with a screamer from 40 yards

 

[StrettoBoy]

Positionally I worry about Rudoni on the left

I think he will play in Saka's position on the right.

Personally I would play MVE or KKH on the right wing with the other filling in at LWB. That's not because I think they will do better there than Rudoni but because I prefer to see Rudoni in a more central role.

This. Grimes always giving him an option will help him.

I also think Rudoni will be on the right.

Didn’t they play together at Swansea

 

[chiefdave]

Don’t worry lads. We can score 5 and snatch a point.

 

[Manchester_sky_blue]

I’m pretty sure about 90% of hospital doctors and nurses don’t take it either.

As a principle, unless you’re immuneo-compromised I don’t think fit and healthy people should be inoculated for common illnesses.

I'm a qualified infection prevention specialist and can categorically say that you're talking bollocks.

 

[Mercian In Anglia]

Don’t worry lads. We can score 5 and snatch a point.

we need to investigate whether Bobby, Liam and Tatsu have just had their flu jabs. this “illness” could be a reaction to that

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

Lati first goal header from a corner

 

[Torquay Sky Blue]

Didn’t they play together at Swansea

Probably why he looked good then. Or am I clutching at straws

 

[fernandopartridge]

Lati hasn't played with Grimes before. Hopefully might find it an improvement

He has, he was in the team for most of the good run we had last season after Lampard was appointed

 

[StrettoBoy]

Don’t worry lads. We can score 5 and snatch a point.

If it goes as badly as some are predicting we will need more than five

Perhaps it's written in the stars that we will get our "missing" six today

No but you’re currently lucky with injuries as nobody is injured for you at the minute - according to Injury Championship Table

 

[steve101]

Massive ask today. Probably should have been giving Lati and Woolfenden more minutes from the bench in the event of something like this. It will be great to get anything from this.

well BTA is out for another 4 weeks and has been injured for about 3 so that table is a load of shite

 

[procdoc]

That’s what I meant, sorry

Apart from Brandon Thomas Asante (our top scorer). If you’re going to start supporting us, at least get the basics right!

 

[Evo1883]

No thomas kitching or sakamoto

4-0 cov

 

[Macca]

Shaky defence and Wright trying to hit a cows arse with a banjo in my head........so a clean sheet and Wright hat trick it is

 

[Manchester_sky_blue]

Lati is going to play a blinder.......maybe.....

 

[skyblueelephant76]

He isn’t

He's never played below championship level so his career would say otherwise

 

[CCFCSteve]

He has, he was in the team for most of the good run we had last season after Lampard was appointed

I like the positivity. They’re two established championship CBs albeit rusty, My concern is how many others are maybe struggling with the flu/bug.

If fully fit, that midfield and forward line has got goals in it so just hoping we’re back to our clinical best going forwards

BTA, arguably one of our most important players, has missed the last several matches and will be out till the end of Jan.
