canarybubbles 1,923 Posted February 13 Poor old Sorensen. His ball came out of the tombola machine twice in four days in positions which aren't his preferred ones. Soon we can all scapegoat him. Well done, Dave! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Indy 3,301 Posted February 13 Barnes starting again, I bet VH must be wondering if made the right choice to sit on our bench while the prolific Barnes starts every game ahead of him! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Monty13 2,235 Posted February 13 Assume Hanley dropped either due to fitness or because he wants someone more comfortable on the ball. Not really surprising other than that IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dean Coneys boots 1,400 Posted February 13 I’ve had it with Wagner. A midfield at CB - whilst perfectly decent CB sits on the bench Aging striker not rested whilst new striker isn’t playing. Always such bizzare lineups and subs and tactics. Make it make sense! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He keeps on about the attempt at gaining a play-off place and then experiments with the line-up. Let's hope it comes off. I believe it is not the first time Lungi has stood in there to some effect, but what about Batth? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For me it's more the lack of Nunez. He's become quite involved in our better performances recently, not least v Coventry where everything seemed to click. I thought we had one eye on tonight with the selection at QPR but seemingly all roads lead to Barnes. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Please let's all agree that if this turns into a defensive disaster, we don't turn Sorensen into a scapegoat. Let's aim our wrath where it deserves to go. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GodlyOtsemobor 2,327 Posted February 13 (edited) Initial thoughts are what a shambles of a team selection, Sorenson at CB, Hanley and Batth both on the bench (what was the point in signing DB?) Barnes starting again when he's shown he can affect a game when brought on from the bench! Why bother signing SVH just to plonk him on the bench, especially if we have a buy option! Let's see what he has apart from splinters in his ****! I hope it works but I'm skeptical - tinkerman strikes again.

shefcanary 2,410 Posted February 13 If there was one side not to start with a recognised CB it's Ismael's Watford. Balls will be flying into the box regularly (Stacey and Dimi are useless at stopping crosses), Ĺungi is okay on the ground but this will be a full on air assault. D'oh! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dean Coneys boots 1,400 Posted February 13 Another encouraging stat- we have never won with Sorensen at CB. meanwhile poor Danny Baath might as well have purchased a season ticket and not bothered training. he really does have some players he picks regardless of form and others he won’t pick regardless of need.

canarybubbles 1,923 Posted February 13 I remember Farke's first promotion and the terrible luck we had with centre backs, so that we ended up having to play midfielders there. Now apparently we do it out of choice. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rock bus 854 Posted February 13 I honestly think Wagner is now picking teams to just wind us up on here, there can’t be. Y other explanation. Madness Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought we had one eye on tonight with the selection at QPR but seemingly all roads lead to Barnes. Exactly. With him playing next to Kenny and Sara in a three man midfield we finally had some control and Nunez was really starting to perform. He’s now been unceremoniously dropped to re-establish the same midfield combo that was way too easy to play through earlier in the season. I find it so frustrating. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dean Coneys boots 1,400 Posted February 13 Yes I have wondered if he actually wants the sack? I mean it feels deliberately provocative at times. Why drop Nunez? Why buy Sydney and not play him? Why always pick Barnes? Why put a midfield in cb with decent one on bench. Crazy’ 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
