lake district canary 4,531 Posted January 16, 2021 Good to see Hernandez on the bench. Could get exciting later in the match if he, Placheta and Omotoye are let loose against a tired Cardiff.  1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Bristol Nest 513 Posted January 16, 2021 (edited) There's a lot of width to bring off the bench later on in the game. Edited January 16, 2021 by The Bristol Nest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Midlands Yellow 3,969 Posted January 16, 2021 (edited) Great chance for Hugill to follow on from last week but definitely gives Cardiff a lift seeing Pukki out. Edited January 16, 2021 by Midlands Yellow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big O 225 Posted January 16, 2021 Big chance for Hudgil, I really hope he takes it as I’ve feared a Pukki injury as it’s the one place I don’t think we have natural cover for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any team with Buendia though is going to cause problems for opponents. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems another formation that suits Pukki, but it's Hugill instead. I'd have had Cantwell No.10 instead of Vrancic, and Placheta on the left 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We shall see, but today is a good chance for him to show us what he has got. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A massive miss for us, would take a scrappy 0-1 for sure. Edited January 16, 2021 by Fuzzar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As above, I think Hugill has a good attitude, tries hard but ultimately lacks the ability required to be a good player and definitely not in the system we play. I hope he does well, I just don't think that he will. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ramrod 258 Posted January 16, 2021 As an aside, how ludicrous that today's referee is from County Durham?! Also, I'm hoping to hear the wonderful lay preacher tones of Mark Walton, the Richard Burton of co- commentators. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And he wasn’t hugely involved against Coventry, he didn’t make runs in behind or get amongst our build up play anything like Pukki does! He scored a good goal from a good cross, from Placheta. Which is all you really can ask and want from him. But on the left side today we have two players who will always cut inside.Our team selection feels a bit contradictory, we should have Placheta on the left or Quintilla at left back. Anyone who will hug the line and get crosses in the box! I’m feeling less confident without Pukki to compliment our attacking trio. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
