Woodman 92 Posted February 17, 2017 Haven''t seen a thread for this yet, and after a physical and energy sapping couple of games, we don''t know who''s out this weekend, so....RuddyPinto (if fit?), Martin, Klose, DijksTettey HowsonJacob Wes WildschutJeromeWould prefer Naismith to Jacob, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sonyc 6,144 Posted February 17, 2017 Yes that team looks possible.but I do think Pritchard and Wes will start this one.Oh, and a hard fought draw could be the outcome. Burton are fighting for their lives whilst we are fighting to get closer to the top 6. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sonyc 6,144 Posted February 17, 2017 Pritchard for Wildschut Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted February 17, 2017 It does appear that Wildschut hasn''t made the impact we hoped for and I don''t believe there is any point playing him for the sake of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woodman 92 Posted February 17, 2017 I''ve gone with Wildschut to provide a bit of physicality. Burton are likely to do what Barnsley did and look to over power us, but with him and Dijks in place, we''re a lot stronger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
morty 0 Posted February 17, 2017 I''m thinking / hoping this Wildschutt thing is just the fact that when we bought him he was literally just back from a hamstring injury, and that he is still rebuilding his full match fitness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
king canary 8,754 Posted February 17, 2017 It wasn''t a severe injury he''s coming back from though. He hasn''t looked unfit so far. He probably just needs a bit more time to fit in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ROBFLECK 134 Posted February 17, 2017 This is gonna be a tough, fysical game so I would start Wildschut and maybe change things in the course of the game if needed...It''s going to show us if we are really up for it! After the midweek game against Toon , there will be some tired leggs and Burton had a week to prepare. First goal is crucial imo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZLF 335 Posted February 17, 2017 Wildschut hasnt done enough to start for me but would hopefully be a good impact sub as he gets himself up to speed with fitness and whats expected from him.Only decision (other than whether Ivo is fit enough or whits continues) is who plays behind jerome. Pritchard, Wes and ?, probably jacob.Hopefully the graft continues and gets us the win. I would like to see our passing improve, it has been poor and hurried recently.

Guest Posted February 17, 2017 You chaps have seen him "in the flesh" so to speak.Is he physical? He looks like a middleweight boxer so does he use that size to intimidate? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Van wink 2,994 Posted February 17, 2017 Wouldn''t have any real concerns about Whittaker playing again, he did ok on Saturday and was very close to getting a goal. He does like comming in from wide positions and having a crack from the edge of the box.I hope we don''t see Jacob and Josh on at the same time, unless we have a few goals lead, particularly away from home. Both have great qualities but also the same weaknesses.Hope Naismith is fit.What''s happened to Jarvis, he played u23 a few weeks ago but haven''t seen or heard much about him recently?

BroadstairsR 2,273 Posted February 17, 2017 Why are there all these doubts and excuses surrounding Windshutt?We are led to believe he was a £7m acquisition give or take a few bob (the expert will pounce now.) If he is not an automatic starter then this is not the Norwich City I have always known, or want to know.Seems a bit wasteful. However much he cost it cannot have been cheap in respect of our sell to buy set-up. Neil will turn us into Ipswich Town-like paupers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Van wink 2,994 Posted February 17, 2017 His form so far is certainly a concern, presumably AN was happy with his fitness or he wouldn''t have started him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

morty 0 Posted February 17, 2017 Press conference soon, hopefully that should give us a few clues as to who is fit! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
morty 0 Posted February 17, 2017 News from the presser :-Confirmed Nelson out for 4-6 weeks.Doesn''t look like any of injured lads will be back, also a doubt about a few others from Tuesday.James Maddison will be in the squad.Apart from Maddison, not a lot of good news there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZLF 335 Posted February 17, 2017 Good to see Maddison travelling, and no real surprise that we may not see any of the injured lads.Additional injuries is a concern, as long as its not Jerome.making 5 from two 2s i wonder if wildschut will be one of the absentees.

Hopefully a weeks rest will get the squad back on it''s feet.Playing devils advocate though there is no reason that we should lose tomorrow we have more than enough quality in the squad to beat the likes of Burton, if we lose tomorrow injuries really can''t be an excuse.

Woodman 92 Posted February 17, 2017 Paddt Davitt''s tweet says no Pinto, Naismith or Mulumbu - who would be the ''ones who missed Tuesday'' I assume.Concerned who the other ''one or two'' are: especially if one of them is Dijks or Jerome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
