Brentford vs Saints - Build Up

So Thomas not injured then. Very poor decision to change 75% of a back 4 that played well together Sat IMO.

Same back 4 that played the game before though isn't it (or did Harding play?). It will only be a bad decision if we lose. Not surprised Morgan not included wither, not really his type of game, more rough and tumble, tight pitch that suits Wotton better.

 

My only comment is that the bench is very defensive, is Connolly injured?

I never saw anything that he was injured so I assumed he was just being rested over the weekend, but obviously there IS something wrong.

 

Still not recovered 100% from his groin injury. Signing Barnard had given AP the chance to let him get properly fit rather than rushing him back in.

Alot of people on here have obviously not seen Brentford play? unlucky away to Norwich on saturday. They don't score many but also don't concede many and are hard to beat. I'll settle for a narrow hard fought win.

 

But...but...they haven't spent money. They must be sh*t.

Did it b4 against Millwall and it didnt suceed - perhaps he's hoping 2nd time lucky?

 

You make it sound as if that defence got torn apart and conceeded loads. It kept a clean sheet until virtually the last kick of the game, simply because half the team switched off thinking we had just scored the winning goal. I doubt they will make that mistake again!!

 

Personally, I am very happy with this starting 11. I would have preferred Thomas at RB, but I guess AP is playing safe with him given the fluid on his knee reported yesterday; and I would prefer Jaidi to Seaborne alongside Fonte, but we all know he is not up 2 games in a few days, hence why AP signed TWO new CBs,

I know how to spell it, it would just throw the side out of proportion making the defence seem really wide and the midfield playing narrow ;)

 

maybe thats the effect pardew's trying to put over, lull the opposition into a false sense of security about thre width of our midfield, and then bung it down the wings to michail and adam ..... or not.

Quite surprised Morgan is only on the bench considering we went to the trouble of an appeal !

 

i think the reason is that we planned for this game without morgan, so alot of the tactics/shape were decided when Morgan was deemed unavailable, so probably doesn't make sense to throw it all out at the last min.

Delldays - interesting fact for you.

 

The whole Brentford 11 that plays us tonight cost under 200k in transfer fees!

 

Thats a 5th of the £'s we paid for Thomas who warms our bench tonight!!

 

Glasgow, talk to me mate..

 

y r u always setting the bar so high for Saints? is it cos u hoping we fail each n every time n then u have an excuse to gun all things saints? n hope u can take a few of us along with u to thedark side? When I see your name, I can almost guess the negative spin that ur gonna be about to spew..

 

True?

Brentford aren't Ipswich, there will be more hustle and less time. In a game against a CCC side you can get away with snails like Wotton and James but it's asking for trouble in League 1 where it's all about pace and aggression.

 

Yeah, League One players are better than CCC :lol:

Don't be so ridiculous.
