Chichcan 148 Posted August 29, 2020 Interesting I wander if this is the preferred starting 11 (allowing for injuries in defence) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cambridgeshire canary 6,717 Posted August 29, 2020 So take it we will have a different 11 out for the second match? So used to seeing our team make changes at half time will be interesting to see most of them play a full 90 again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WD40 720 Posted August 29, 2020 Wouldn’t be surprised to see this lineup on the opening day of the season other than Tettey at CB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheGunnShow 5,940 Posted August 29, 2020 Zimmermann for Tettey and that could be a first-team line-up with Cantwell on the bench for creativity, or quite possibly in Stiepermann's spot, and Emi would probably be where Dowell is. Stiepermann and Dowell together could be interesting, and it's clear that Pukki likes having Stiepi behind him. Both have some height and strength, whilst Placheta is just bloody fast. I wouldn't be surprised if Stiepi plays Placheta in for low crosses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not bitter, not angry , not old , just amazed at your postingfor the sake of posting....here's a few to consider....." do you think they'll be wearing boots ?" , "has the refs haircut influenced the game" , " will Farke be wearing a green or black parka today?".

Says quite a lot when you look at this pitch, which is somewhat uneven and has quite a few holes and can think "Yeah, this is much better than the last one" Still confused why they thought playing on that pitch was a good idea Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cambridgeshire canary 6,717 Posted August 29, 2020 Cheeky little flick from pukki to get it in, but this keeper is shocking pretty sure any other keeper would have saved that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Canary Wundaboy 1,359 Posted August 29, 2020 Our defending isn’t exactly decisive! Yes I know it’s a criticism when we’re 2-0 up but Farke did say he wanted to see us concede less chances and they’re spending plenty of time around our box atm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
