Team For Blackburn

[Newton 0]

Agree with RTB (for once)

 

AN will certainly make changes - if its wet Hoolly will probably be benched replaced by Redmond in a reshuffled misfield

 

He will probably select 2 out of Grabbam / Jerone / Hooper

 

& Dorrans in for Tettey given the article in the EDO when Tettly claimed his knee would only last 1 game in 7 days

 

But who knows - AN clearly analises teams - using there strengths & weaknesses to select his team & tactics

 

Like it

[quote user="Feedthewolf"]I want us to win this one with craft and movement, rather than directness.

So you''d leave both our goal scorers grabban and jerome on the bench and play hooper on his own upfront and win with craft and movement?

Hope this is a joke post because it''s the funniest post I''ve ever seen.

Hope this is a joke post because it''s the funniest post I''ve ever seen.[/quote]What would you do, then? I guess you''d try to match Blackburn''s direct and physical approach by playing the two more physical players in Grabban and Jerome? Against Blackpool (who drew at Blackburn at the weekend) Hooper and Hoolahan''s linkup play was outstanding, and with three games in a week it makes sense to keep the squad fresh. Hooper is a clinical finisher, and Jerome has been battling injury problems lately.If the pitch is really bad, then obviously that''s not the ideal kind of game for Wes, so maybe start Grabban or VOO instead - but playing with five in midfield, using the width and having three guys in the centre of the park to win the midfield battle is a reasonable suggestion, don''t you think?And if that was the funniest post you''ve ever seen, you must have a rather abstract sense of humour. Not that that''s a bad thing, of course.

Interesting that they fear us as I am worried more about this game than Sunday. I can''t put my finger on it but they just look stronger than our cunty cousins.

[The Bristol Nest 513]

Obviously I meant counrtry.

Indeed Mr Wolf

[havemyhowsonit 0]

Neither was I.

But I wasn''t stupid enough to leave the best two strikers on the bench.

[quote user="alartz"]Neither was I.

Hoping Johnson can keep a cool head today and not make any rash challenges as id like to see him start against Ipswich and one more yellow will prevent that.

For those asking, Tettey is one yellow from a ban (9); Johnson has 8 ahead of tonight''s game so will be available Sunday unless he sees red.
