Cantiaci Canary 556 Posted August 20, 2012 I think he''ll drop a midfielder (Johnson?) for Vaughan and play 2 upfront.Otherwise it will be the same team given the same instructionsPROVE YOURSELVES! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mello Yello 2,281 Posted August 20, 2012 I would hope CH plays the same starting 11 that so underperformed against Fulham so as to prove it was just a freak result...... If the starting 11 perform against QPR like they did against Fulham......They should be made to clean the apprentice''s and youth team boots for the remainder of the season....

bigkev 1974 0 Posted August 20, 2012 i totally agree with mello yello. give the lads a chance to prove it was a freak one off game? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
York Canary 28 Posted August 20, 2012 Part of me agrees with Mello, but the other part screams ''be more attacking'' and have Vaughan with Holt! I guess we could start the same as last Sat, but I''d soon change it if it looks like we''re not creating anything or getting Holty any support Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ricardo 7,348 Posted August 20, 2012 I doubt we''ll see the 5 changes Lambert used to ring on a regular basis. From what I''ve seen so far CH seems the ultra cautious type so maybe 1 or 2 changes but much the same defensive minded line up.I hope I''m wrong but so far this season I remain somewhat uninspired.by what I''ve seen.

Chelmsford Canary 0 Posted August 20, 2012 I''ll be very surprised to see us play the diamond again.Speaking to people before game at weekend, it was though to be 4411, so surprised to see Snodgrass on right.I also thought/wondered whether CH was looking to play different formation home and away, and we will see more attaking/two upfront this weekend.Definately need some pace in Jackson or Vaughan at weekend.We all know Holt can''t play up front by himself, he needs to feed off others.At weekend, I was thinking we need Wes on, his passing is usually very slick, and we missed that.

King Klose 0 Posted August 21, 2012 I think Wes has got to start, if fit. We always look a much better side when he plays as everything goes through him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SwindonCanary 455 Posted August 21, 2012 It''s not the player, but how they play. We need to have a priority of attacking and get out of this pre-season friendly attitude. Play with a bit more zip, close down high up the field and keep a straight back line !Houghton said we were fine for the first 20 mins. I don''t agree the way we played was too slow and ponderous, where as Fulham up''ed the tempo every time they were in possession. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jacko 0 Posted August 21, 2012 I would also be happy with the team that Gareth has put forward. The only alteration I would make to that would be Snodgrass for Pilkington. I thought Pilkington was diabolical against Fulham and he wasnt much better the week before against Borussia Munchengladbach. On that basis I think Snodgrass deserves a go. I also felt he put in a decent shift defensively and gave Russ a hand at times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chunky Norwich 0 Posted August 21, 2012 Probably exactly the same team he put out against Fulham in an attempt to prove themselves. I cannot see Hughton playing Wessi and two up front; highlighted by switching from 4-5-1 (6-3-1?!) to 4-4-2 but then back to 4-5-1 to accomodate Hoolahoop coming on. After the Barclay and Snakepit have shouted a bit, he might bring on Moro and turn it to a 4-4-2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He scored the freekick early on and then did nothing else. That''s carried over into the BM and Fulham games. I thought Pilks was inconsisent last season though. He''s a flair player and he can do some brilliant things with the ball but sometimes he''s a passenger. If he produced his best stuff more often than he does then we''re looking at someone who would have a real chance of playing for a much bigger club. I tend to think Elliott Bennett works harder to keep himself in the game, even when he isn''t playing great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Blobfish OBE 0 Posted August 21, 2012 I would like to see Bassong straight in alongside Turner, who can hopefully put the Fulham game behind him. Garrido in for Tierney. Two up front as it''s clear Holt as the lone frontman still isn''t working. Vaughan makes sense partnering him but rumours persist there''s a move away lined up. Snodgrass switched to the right where he was so successful for Leeds. I imagine Hughton will stick with Howson and Johnson in the middle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
