Rupp and Hernandez were linking up well, and Vrancic should definitely not be next to Skipp - he needs to be further up. In my mind Vrancic floats where he wants and the other two have to be more disciplined. I put Idah in because IMO he has been a real difference when he gets on the pitch. He's in form and I think some pressure needs putting on Pukki. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,200 Posted October 1, 2020 3 hours ago, Jerrykerry said: Yes how dare Farke play his only midfielder who can head, shoot and tackle, and operate in the hole or deeper. How dare he! He is a professional footballer he should be able to do all of those. He is the invisible man. If we are to lose the likes of Buendia and Cantwell who have the balls to try something different but keep him in then I give up frankly.... McLean is the sort of player to bring on when you are 2 or 3 up, not as one of your most creative players. I really hope we don't start with 3 DMs at home to hapless Derby. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HazzaJet 252 Posted October 1, 2020 Considering Derby are currently joint holders with Wycombe for the most goals conceded so far this season (8) I might swap a midfielder for a forward and go for: Krul Aarons Zimbo Godfrey Quintilla Skipp Buendia Cantwell Placheta Pukki Hugill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jersey Canary 143 Posted October 1, 2020 Bearing in mind the transfer speculation, I would expect the following team. Krul Aarons Zimbo, Gibson, Quintilla Skipp. Tettey Onel. Vrancic. Placheta Pukki Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jerrykerry 223 Posted October 1, 2020 8 hours ago, NFN FC said: The only hole he's good at operating in is Farke's. He must have the brownest nose in the squad. No other reason to start him this week as he was poor last week (and on many other recent fixtures). Sigh it's so sad to see such limited thinking. OK let's spell it out. We don't have another midfielder like him. That's why he's played. Vrancic would vanish there. You can't play two holders. It's really very simple stuff.

Branston Pickle 3,638 Posted October 1, 2020 I think Kenny is a classic case of what I call ‘Phelan Syndrome‘ - a player‘s player who does a lot that supporters don’t see. Mike Phelan back in the day filled the m/f role, supporters couldn’t really see what it was that he added but Ken Brown really rated him and reckoned he was busy doing the stuff we don’t notice. I guess Fergie agreed as he ended up at Man U. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mullet 293 Posted October 1, 2020 9 hours ago, hertfordyellow said: My thinking is Cantwell has played his last game for us. I get your point about holding midfielders. I would say you need plenty of legs to compensate for Vrancic's err lack of legs. I don't think we'll be seeing Cantwell again or Godfrey. Cantwells head has been turned and you can't deny Godfrey going to a flying Everton team. We are linked to a young Liverpool defender can't remember his name, French I think Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
