I think we need to play Jarrett because he has been described as a box to box midfield player. Jarrett also looks like he can pass pretty well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rasputin was a C... 0 Posted August 7, 2005 Going on Saturdays display I would like to see this team...GK GreenDR MLJDL DruryDRC ColinDLC ShackellMR MarneyML HuckerbyMRC JarrettMLC CharltonFC McKenzieST AshtonI think Charlton did a good job on Saturday as did MLJ. I didn''t like the look of Fleming, Doherty or Hughes. Fleming because like last season has no positional awareness and blames his mistakes on the other players. Doherty because he just looks like he''s going to give away freekicks as he holds on to players, IN THE BOX! With Hughes, I would like to contrast him with Marney. Dean showed everyone that he can pass the ball far better than anyone else in the squad with pin point crosses for Ashton and McKenzie to attack. He also seemed to stick his foot in when needed. Hughes ran about, won the ball then hoofed it forwards to no one. I can see why some have likened him to Holt. I know it was only one game and they''ve all got to learn about each other with so many new faces so it will be interesting to see how it goes Tuesday night.Also... Who else thinks Marney did more in that one game than Bentley did in the whole of last season because I believe he did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cheeky Monkey 0 Posted August 7, 2005 Haha get your point. Bentely was a show boater. He had class, but he wimped out of tackles all the time. Marney will be key in taking us back to the prem. A pleasure to watch ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZLF 274 Posted August 8, 2005 Too soon to say on marney or MLJ - marney had very little impact for most of the game but did show some good touches. Comparing Marney and Bents will be impossible due to the quality of opposition; Bentley had an impact on games in the prem, so far marney has not really in the champs but it is far too soon to say. The same goes for MLJ who should keep his place until we know better .Hughes gets a second chance but we have to see more commitment and ability.Team has to be our best 11 playersGreenMLJ Shack Doc DruryMarney Jarrett Safri (Hughes) Hux Leon AshtonSubsWard Colin Thorne Hughes Jim Brennan OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It''s one game! Did Bentley not score against Newcastle and Saints. Did he not cross for Deano against Manure. Did he not play a blinder against Bolton at home? I would fancy Bentley a lot more against Coventry than any team in the Premier League and at the end of the day Bentley is a striker. It''s not his fault that Worthy played him out of position.

Saint Canary 0 Posted August 8, 2005 Sorry but I just wanted to add something else. When Bentley signed last year most people hailed him a some sort of messiah, some if us tried to point out his lack of experience etc but no one wanted to hear it. After a few games everyone rounded on him and wanted him sent back. I just hope people are not going to put Marney on pedestal, it''s a long way for him to fall if he cannot live up to high expectations placed upon him!

Big Rob 0 Posted August 8, 2005 Everyone is gonna come to pretty much the same conclusion.Basically we need to get Shackell, Jarrett and Safri into the starting 11 at the earliest opportunity. Enough said! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think last season we probably looked at our best defensively when Fleming and Chalton were paired together in the centre! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
