We literally beat them 4-1 with one up front and Shipley in the team last season.

We also won the FA Cup in 1987, what is your point?

Don’t have a problem with Hamer being rested...makes sense in terms of bookings. But I am a little surprised shippers is in. Time for him to put on a big performance

I share the scepticism about Shipley. Hamer must be being rested.

Prepare for big substitutions on the hour - bit like Norwich.

That + Hamer also has to get through 2 more games without picking up a yellow card to avoid a suspension (same as Østigård).
Against an aggressive, combative team like Wycombe that might be tricky so no surprise he's rested for this one.

Except for the fact we will be pressing with a player that won't tackle.

Playing one up front and having Shipley in the team feels a bit like having 9 players.

Big fan of shipley then

The bench selection is allways odd. Jobello last few games then kasta today.

Mind you Would love to see kasta run at them for 10 mins at the end.

Surely resting him two games so that he doesn't miss one game is a bit counter intuitive?

I imagine the wing backs will have more freedom in this system with 1 less striker... Well in theory that is true
Click to expand...
I think Wycombe will target the flanks with long diagonals which might keep them pinned back or spread the centre backs dangerously. It's a pretty intriguing fixture really having played each other so frequently recently and with the games being so one sided. A lot of cat and mouse games and 2nd guessing going on I would think. I'd definitely take another 3rd minute McCallum goal today though!

Wouldn’t it have been more beneficial to rest Hamer against Huddersfield, this is a more important game than that. Unless he’s carrying something.

He's carrying the whole fucking team!

Aw ok. Cheers for clearing up. I assume Kasta will just be there to make up numbers.

Who says he's done anything wrong? Robins picks a team to get a result by both playing to our strengths & combating theirs.
As @Esoterica said earlier, I'd expect long diagonals towards the flanks from Wycombe, hence McCallum's superior aerial ability would have been a factor.
