Yellow Green Army 237 Posted October 19, 2020 Will be the same as the weekend but the team I would go with Krul Aarons Hanley Gibson Quintilla Tettey Buendia Skipp Cantwell Pukki Hugill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheGunnShow 5,932 Posted October 19, 2020 I'd go: GK: Tim KRUL RB: Max AARONS RCB: Grant HANLEY (C) LCB: Ben GIBSON LB: Xavi QUINTILLA RDM: Oliver SKIPP LDM: Lukas RUPP LAM: Przemyslav PLACHETA ACM: Todd CANTWELL RAM: Emiliano BUENDIA CF: Jordan HUGILL Subs: McGovern, Tettey, Stiepermann (or Sorensen), Idah, Pukki, McLean, Vrancic Worth giving Hugill a run now. He would have scored if the Rotherham centre-half had missed the OG, and got the penalty as well. Pukki's earned a bit of a rest so if we need to, bring him off the bench. I really want to see Cantwell or Buendia in the hole and not on a wing though. Buendia is good at cutting in and creating space for Aarons to go up though, and their partnership is well-grooved so keep it together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would like to see Pukki and Hugill start together; not as an out-and-out front two, but with one or the other playing in the hole. If that was an option, who do people think would make the better '10'? Pukki has bags of energy and will probably track back more, but he's also better at timing his runs to get in behind. I'd consider trying Hugill in the hole; I just don't rate Stiepermann in that position, and I wonder whether Hugill might be quite effective there. It'd be good to have a player with a striker's instincts who can play there, because Stiepi doesn't really offer much goal threat or assist potential. This might be especially effective if we don't play with our pacy wingers, as Hugill is more effective as our '9' when we have wingers who can cross to his head. So I'd try: Krul Aarons Hanley Gibson Quintilla Skipp Rupp Buendia Hugill Cantwell Pukki Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paddycanary 538 Posted October 19, 2020 Any room for Tettey or Idah anyone? What about: Krul Aarons Hanley Gibson Quintilla Skipp Tettey Buendia Pukki Placheta Hugill Cantwell, Idah, Vrancic, Rupp, Stiepermann, McGovern Can't find room for Josh Martin, McLean or Sorensen on the bench sadly. Thin of course on defensive cover. But I'd be surprised if DF didn't start Rupp & Idah again. He has form with giving 'Idah-esque' prospects a run of games, although Cantwell coming back complements/complicates the selection. Interesting how Skipp & Rupp controlled midfield during a loss and we won with a porous midfield. I'm in the "bring in Tetts to shore it up" brigade, for a few of the upcoming games anyway.

ged in the onion bag 854 Posted October 20, 2020 (edited) Simple really... we should play 4-2- 2 wider players with one up top as usual but leave Buendia free to find the spaces ... just keep feeding him in the holes... he’s our best No 10 by a country mile...

He has the ability to be the best player in the Championship, but he needs to be consistent for that. Grealish was a better player last time we were here. I love his ability going forward when his head is in the game, I really do. But I don't think he stands out as brilliantly as some fans want him to. Bags of potential and still relatively young but he needs to start delivering on a regular basis and cut out some of the histrionics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheGunnShow 5,932 Posted October 20, 2020 Just a question to those who are putting Tettey in, who's the back-up centre-half with Zimmermann out? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

king canary 7,580 Posted October 20, 2020 Krul Aarons Hanley Gibson Quintilla Skipp Sorenson Buendia, Pukki Placheta (is he fit?) Hugill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smooth 114 Posted October 20, 2020 Krul Aaron's Hanley Gibson Quintilla Rupp Skipp Buendia Marco Placheta Hugill For me Buendia and Pukki work so well together anticipating runs etc, so I would love Pukki to start but Farke will start with Hugill. The only change I would/ see farke doing is Placheta. I think Idah and Pukki on the bench is ideal if things are not quite ticking. Vrancic, tettey and Cantwell. Cannot wait to see sorenson given a run out soon, hoping he can become a regular. I know Farke doesnt believe in changing the formation or winning team but I think we could look at the 2 upfront soon. We have not set any game alight yet and I am worried that maybe 2nd, 3rd and 4th gear might have already been shown in this formation. We will see but looking forward to a midweek game.
