Strike Partnership Vs Orient

[quote user="Ten Years Ahead Of His Time"]Martin and Elliot for me. Oli to come off the bench when their defence starts to tire.[/quote]

Yep, I agree with that. Oli is an impact player and does well when he comes on. Elliot is more experienced and is better at starting games. But I know that Lambert will make the right choice!

could play all three. martin and elliot up front and then oli in the hole. i think oli would be class there as he runs past players and creates a lot.

I''d love to see Oli start in Wes'' role, with Elliot replacing Holt...

I like the idea of Martin & Elliot upfront with Oli behind, but I''m not sure it''s robust enough for an away game against a relegation threatened team.

I''d be inclined to put Hughes behind Martin & Elliot. We really need to win the ball high up the pitch and without Holt the other three will struggle to do that.

i get your point. but at home i think if we played with those three we would run riot in some games.

Lots of good ideas.What I find most pleasing is the fact that we have options, all too often in recent seasons we really haven''t.

This was my thinking too - Oli in for McNamee, Elliot in for Holt, go back to the diamond.

I''m sure Oli came on as a sub just after he joined and played behind the strikers? It''s certainly more his role than Martin''s, who needs to stay up top.

Martin was Lambert''s first choice to drop back when he substituted Wes with a striker

"What I find most pleasing is the fact that we have options, all too often in recent seasons we really haven''t."

Yeah - it''s nice being able to look at the bench and think "actually, wouldn''t mind seeing 1/2 those guys on the pitch", rather than hoping none have to be used!
