Petriix 2,853 Posted July 30, 2022 I'm struggling to see where the goals are supposed to come from. None of the midfield really score or create goals. We're missing Dowell at number 10 and I'm yet to be convinced by Rashica or Sargent. I'd be genuinely happier if we were starting with Hernandez and Sinani. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nope, 7 subs named of which 5 can be used Edit: sorry, now seen it's already been answered Edited July 30, 2022 by Ken Hairy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nuff Said 5,179 Posted July 30, 2022 Hugill and Hernandez are great cards to play later in the game if we need to. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robert N. LiM 4,545 Posted July 30, 2022 Just now, Capt. Pants said: It is a bit odd I suppose. I did check first https://www.efl.com/news/2022/june/number-of-substitutes-in-efl-league-fixtures-increases/ I guess that does even it up a bit. Still think being able to use five subs is an unfair advantage for the bigger clubs, which is us this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cambridgeshire canary 6,833 Posted July 30, 2022 Cantwell at number 10 according to Pink'Un. Interesting to see how he links with Pukki. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Real Buh 3,486 Posted July 30, 2022 I think we are going to have to re-learn how to score “goals” again, remember those? so unfortunately some patience may be required. But this fanbase understandably has no patience left after one of the most demoralising seasons on record Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chelm Canary 404 Posted July 30, 2022 I'm not so concerned about where goals are going to come from. There is plenty of quality in that side. We will find out after a few games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pyro Pete 1,925 Posted July 30, 2022 Today I would like to see Rashica get his head up and play the ball either to Pukki's feet or into his path as a through-ball. Plus, not shoot straight at the keeper (Rashica, that is). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AJ 1,232 Posted July 30, 2022 Decent lineup but pretty much the only obvious choices though. Looking forward to having Hayden, Sara and Dowell help beef up the selection choices Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1902 1,167 Posted July 30, 2022 If Cantwell, Pukki, Rashica and Sargent can't score at this level then something is wrong with the coaching. Games are tough in the championship and it might take a few games to get going, but the inherent quality should be there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
