cambridgeshire canary 7,777 Posted February 25, 2023 (edited) Pukki back in or no? Nunez staying at number 10? Tzolis starting? Marquinhos too? Hernandez super sub? ... Or just an unchanged 11? (Minus Dowell of course) Edited February 25, 2023 by cambridgeshire canary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keelansgrandad 6,680 Posted February 25, 2023 Tzolis in for Dowell. Apart from that, it has to be the same. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Satriales 988 Posted February 25, 2023 I'm going with Gibbs in for Dowell, and if its not working by half time, send on the attacking players, Tzolis and or Marquinhos. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lake district canary 4,813 Posted February 25, 2023 Really not sure about whether to put Pukki back in to this one. If he is 100% fit and ready, yes, but if not, no harm with sticking with Idah and Pukki can get a few minutes from the bench. Idah needs the minutes more than Pukki at the moment.

dylanisabaddog 6,108 Posted February 25, 2023 Looking at the other fixtures, this is a hugely important game for us if we want to reach the play offs. Usually 75 points would be enough but it could possibly be anything up to 78 this season. That's a lot to ask for but if we do win Wagner will have achieved 16 points in his first 8 games. If only he'd been here from the start of the season. I'd move Sara forward and put Gibbs next to Kenny. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Real Buh 3,757 Posted February 25, 2023 I’d go unchanged, let’s keep the competing players hungry (that wasn’t a dog at Tzolis btw) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gunn Aarons Hanley Gibson Giannoulis Sara Mclean Hernandez Nunez Tzolis Idah I think this is the right team personally, although Giannoulis blows more hot and cold than anyone else in the squad IMO, wouldn’t be surprised to see him dropped. Tzolis still doesn’t look like a winger to me though, that goal looked more like a strikers run and finish. I think it’s time to see what he can do from the start with Dowell out though and the lack of options, I don’t like the idea of Gibbs or Idah moving wide personally.

Like most other people on this thread, I'd start Tzolis for Dowell but otherwise I'd also be unchanged. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nexus_Canary 1,206 Posted February 25, 2023 (edited) Tzolis for Dowell but leave the rest unchanged. *Tin Hat on* Drop Pukki unless he decides to commit to next season let him play in the U21 so we can develop Sarge & Idah, there I said it.

Worthy Nigelton 1,295 Posted February 25, 2023 Everyone wants Dowell dropped despite his start under Wagner looking really promising coz he's had a couple of average games? Same again for me. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only joking, he's been very good since Wagner arrived and we'll miss his vision and technical ability. But he does sometimes seem like a poor man's Berbatov - he often seems semi-detached from the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ 1,356 Posted February 25, 2023 Marquinhos over Tzolis, ouch that's got to sting for Christos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
