Thirsty Lizard 3,215 Posted March 6, 2021 Be interesting to see who plays in the 'Number 10' role - probably Kenny, or will Rupp be our new Number 10 - or will it be Cantwell with Rupp playing in a wider role? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Branston Pickle 4,145 Posted March 6, 2021 Perhaps it’ll be interchangeable between Kenny and Rupp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yellowrider120 917 Posted March 6, 2021 Well that's Dowell's NCFC 'career' done and dusted then!  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ken Hairy 4,272 Posted March 6, 2021 Agreed, surely Kenny in at 10 with Rupp alongside Skipp. Either way it's showing Dowell is obviously not impressing in training either, I suspect he will be moved on in the summer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fuzzar 1,855 Posted March 6, 2021 Was quite excited by the Dowell signing in the summer. Such a shame he got injured. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure if we slightly overrated him in the summer, a quick check of his history shows a decent season on loan 4 years ago at Forest, but some 'meh' looking spells at Sheff Utd, Derby and Wigan. I think the fact none of them signed him permanently is telling.  EDIT **** quoted wrong person, this is obviously in response to comments about Dowell.

Indy 3,471 Posted March 6, 2021 Decent lineup, though I’d like to see Sorensen in there, but Rupp has played well when he’s come on, so no complaints about that line up... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the fact none of them signed him permanently is telling. I'm certainly not writing him off, but I feel we were getting him at just the right time in his career and he could ignite that 10 position. It may do yet, but he is a level from that atm. His injury certainly has had a part to play, unfortunately Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's the difference, Dowell has never really looked at all impressive or played that well when coming on as sub. Hence, he is still on the bench. Mind you, that still leaves us needing a No. 10.

TheGunnShow 7,376 Posted March 6, 2021 Rupp at 10 is interesting. He's got a much sprightlier turn of pace than Mario and defensively is more diligent, although he's never going to be as incisive with flicks and passes. Vrancic is similar to Hernandez for me - he's more dangerous against a tiring defence. Rupp's energy is what tires them out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 2,035 Posted March 6, 2021 If Vrancic has been dropped even before Steipermann is back fully fit...I'd say there's a good chance he'll now be in when he is... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Bristol Nest 597 Posted March 6, 2021 I would guess that Vrancic is knackered after Brentford and Rupp is the senior backup ahead of Dowell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keelansgrandad 6,680 Posted March 6, 2021 Kenny was MOTM in many views on Wednesday so I hope he stays alongside Ollie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
