Rhino1 292 Posted October 31, 2020 Shows to me that Farke is a stronger leader Todd has been poor last two games and deserves to be dropped, think his head is not in the right place! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yellow Fever 3,785 Posted October 31, 2020 Good for Marco and Placheta to take their chance. Vrancic off the bench later. Not surprised to see Cantwell dropped to subs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ron obvious 1,502 Posted October 31, 2020 Looks good to me. I might have put Kenny in for Skipp though. Hopefully Marco's done something in training to impress. He's only shown glimpses of his ability so far, but I still think there's an influential player in there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nuff Said 5,141 Posted October 31, 2020 Hmm 🤔 . Is that based on performances or is there an element of squad rotation in there? I’ve not seen an update on Xavi’s injury but obviously worse than the slight strain they said at the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Block Y Seat 176 80 Posted October 31, 2020 I’m hoping for a Placheta to use his pace to get to far post crosses from Aaron’s and Pukki. We should be making best use of the physical attributes of the players. Other teams seem to be able to score these types of goals. Why not us? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy 3,300 Posted October 31, 2020 Pleased to see Sorensen and Placheta starting. Cantwell to score the winner, subs always score! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WD40 720 Posted October 31, 2020 That could be 3 at the back and Placheta as a LWB. Sometimes these formations the clubs puts out are wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aaron's and Pukki going to be crossing into the box you say? I think you'll find they'll be coming inside and running into ten Bristol players as they normally do.

cambridgeshire canary 6,718 Posted October 31, 2020 Would have liked to see Mumba get his competitive debut at left back for us but its not like Sorenson did all too much wrong.. Will probably get subbed off for him at some point though. Hopefuly the classic Stepi too Pukki works wonders as it often has, and Vrancic off the bench to score a beckham like free kick, mark my words 😉 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sometimes these formations the clubs puts out are wrong. I kinda hope it is. I'm not sure what Placheta is like defensively, but with Gibson on the left of the back three, he could provide the protection. Sorensen would probably feel more comfortable in a three-man defence than left back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sonyc 5,519 Posted October 31, 2020 (edited) Long time Wells fan. Hope we keep him quiet. Chris Martin, another awkward customer, strong and good front man. Just hope Placheta rips them open and Stiepermann reverts back to supplying Teemu. Edited October 31, 2020 by sonyc 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Badger 2,405 Posted October 31, 2020 My guess is that they think that Placheta's pace will be a useful on the break and that he will have more space than he would in home game against a packed defence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary dwarf 221 Posted October 31, 2020 Interesting line up , big chances for placheta and stiepperman today , decent bench options too. Otbc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Six Pack 93 Posted October 31, 2020 Very disappointing ! Sorensen and Stiepermann are not what we need ! The team lacks balance. Attackwise we now do not have the players for a passing game or a "crossing into the box" game! Stiepermann is just not the player he was 2 seasons ago. All his shots "go up" and he is lazy or out condition and slow - probably all three. No impact whatsoever ! With Sorenson - we need players who display a skill or an attribute - he hasn't one ! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crab man 164 Posted October 31, 2020 Surprised Cantwell has been benched, perhaps not fully fit. If I remember rightly didn't Stiepy score a peach last time we played at Ashton Gate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I reckon I called it rightly in the 'Hanley/Captaincy' thread --- Farke will struggle to accommodate players from too large a squad. It's not based on performances.
