BroadstairsR 2,138 Posted January 30, 2021 Warnock playing a strange game. In his pre-match interview yesterday he said that Bolasie "might" be on the bench, but had only trained once with team. He has also benched all of his main strikers, it would seem. He also called this game a "free-hit" and seems to be willing to be inventive in response. It might work, knowing him. However I, for one, am glad Fletcher is not a starter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capt. Pants 4,195 Posted January 30, 2021 Interesting to see Sorensen dropped from the starting line-up, few were expecting that! We need a 100% improvement from Rupp compared to last week. Great to see the Greek lad in though. OTBC. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well b back 3,190 Posted January 30, 2021 And I predict if it goes wrong today it will be Rupps fault. Â 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But Rupp needs to play well for his own sake as it’s terribly harsh to drop Sorensen from this team. Bad performance and he gets hooked for Lungi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tumbleweed 106 Posted January 30, 2021 Their bench looks pretty strong too. Warnock will have them going for this, won't be easy at all. Looks like they'll try and keep it tight, then bring in Akpom, Assombalonga and maybe Roberts for the last 20. For some readin I'm more worried about this game than any other for a while.
