Joesaint Posted 7 October, 2010 Posted 7 October, 2010 Agreed, would be great to see Chamberlain playing through the middle running into space. He would cause far more problems there than out wide IMO. Could also be good to see gully as an attacking midfield after 60 mins or something.
doddisalegend Posted 7 October, 2010 Posted 7 October, 2010 Agreed, would be great to see Chamberlain playing through the middle running into space. He would cause far more problems there than out wide IMO. yeah agree with that think his pace would cause most CBs in this division problems.
thorpie the sinner Posted 7 October, 2010 Posted 7 October, 2010 As well as Seabourne has done, I think Martin is an absolute star!! Can't wait until he gets his chance again!!
sfc4prem Posted 7 October, 2010 Posted 7 October, 2010 I love the strength in depth we have defensively. That's something really positive about Pardew's reign.
toofarnorth Posted 8 October, 2010 Posted 8 October, 2010 I love the strength in depth we have defensively. That's something really positive about Pardew's reign. I agree. If we can retain our current crop of defenders there is no reason they cant be good enough in the Championship IMO. Hopefully Chaplow can regain his form and then that gives us much more depth in Midfield. Just need to sort out the right wing and strikers.
Shroppie Posted 8 October, 2010 Posted 8 October, 2010 This is a pointless argument anyway, as he won't play Saturday. He will play. If he's been disciplined internally we'll never know and quite right too. Nor has he been found guilty of any offence. We don't even know if he's been charged. So why don't we stop the idle speculation based on a friend of a friend saying he heard someone say they know someone who was there just after it happened and people were saying stuff so it must be true.
Secret Site Agent Posted 8 October, 2010 Posted 8 October, 2010 I can see us winning quite comfortably. 3 nil to saints Connolly might be on the bench Did you mean the treatment table? Or is it new street slang for on the P*ss.
bpsaint Posted 8 October, 2010 Posted 8 October, 2010 Wouldn't mind seeing Jaidi bought back in for this in place of Seaborne. Nothing against the lad, and he's done well since he came back in but Tranmere have a bit of a monster up front in the shape of Enoch Showunmi, he's had a pretty good start to the season too.
supersonic Posted 8 October, 2010 Posted 8 October, 2010 i'm going for a 4-5-1 formation which when we are attacking turns into a 4-2-4 with the wingers and 'the hole' midfielder. Bignalls signing makes me think LB won't be involved and/or connolly isn't anywhere near match fitness yet. Would be good to see richardson get on the pitch, and I wouldn't change the CB pairing, no-matter how big of a lump up front they have, Fonte and Seabourne (the latter especially) against bornmuff were immense. hopefully chaplow will do well, he certainly did in his first stint here. would possibly play him in the 'hole' behind lambert and move Dickson into cm, in the Gareth Barry role. my team would be: ----------Davis------------ Butts--Fonte-Seabourne--Harding Puncheon-Hammond-Dickson-Lallana ------------Chaplow-------------- ------------Lambert------------- Am currently undecided on 2-0 or 3-0 COYR!
SNSUN Posted 8 October, 2010 Posted 8 October, 2010 It's easy to see a win here, but I'm still not confident of the fluidity of our attacking play. We've improved under Adkins, that's plain to see, but beat Bournemouth with two set pieces. In the prediction league, I went with a nil nil, but i'll go with my heart tomorrow and say 2-0.
SO16_Saint Posted 9 October, 2010 Posted 9 October, 2010 Is the game still on? why wouldnt it be, or have i missed something?
Dalek2003 Posted 9 October, 2010 Posted 9 October, 2010 Very quiet today, have people gone elsewhere ?
Window Cleaner Posted 9 October, 2010 Posted 9 October, 2010 Very quiet today, have people gone elsewhere ? probably on their way to the game, cheap tickets and all that.
hypochondriac Posted 9 October, 2010 Posted 9 October, 2010 I agree. If we can retain our current crop of defenders there is no reason they cant be good enough in the Championship IMO. Hopefully Chaplow can regain his form and then that gives us much more depth in Midfield. Just need to sort out the right wing and strikers. Nah. Will need to replace Jaidi next year.
NickG Posted 9 October, 2010 Posted 9 October, 2010 Fonte, Martin, Seaborne will be fighting for the two places -hopefully for a while
SuperMikey Posted 9 October, 2010 Posted 9 October, 2010 ----------------------DAVIS------------------- BUTTERFIELD----FONTE----MARTIN-----HARDING PUNCHEON---HAMMOND----CHAPLOW---LALLANA ----------CHAMBERLAIN----LAMBERT------------ That's what i'd play! Reckon we'll see Oxo up front today, Pardew played him there a few times this season and last, his pace can scare defenders and he seems to have pretty good tekkers too. 3-0 to the mighty Saints imo! COYR!
NickG Posted 9 October, 2010 Posted 9 October, 2010 Pardew played Ox-C for 4 mins as sub for Lambert in one game and few in one other game - played wide both times I thought - only for matter of minutes in total
SuperMikey Posted 9 October, 2010 Posted 9 October, 2010 Pardew played Ox-C for 4 mins as sub for Lambert in one game and few in one other game - played wide both times I thought - only for matter of minutes in total He played a few times last season 'in the hole' I thought. He definitely played up front this season a few times. Didn't he score playing up front?
NickG Posted 9 October, 2010 Posted 9 October, 2010 sorry was posting while doing something else - didn't mean to come across rude. He didn't really figure last season of note, when starting think he was used on wing this year but some of Pardew's formations were bit hard to place! Certainly did come inside and not a bad suggestion
SuperMikey Posted 9 October, 2010 Posted 9 October, 2010 You didn't come across as rude - don't worry Nick! He has been started on the wing a lot, I think he's slightly wasted out there. Would like to see him playing more centrally to see how it works out, although there was a poster on here saying that he's being played out wide to 'protect him'. Fair enough I suppose, League One is pretty rough!
NickG Posted 9 October, 2010 Posted 9 October, 2010 pretty impressive bench - Barnard,Holmes, Ox-c, new guy, dickson, jaidi, bart
Kingsbridge Saint Posted 9 October, 2010 Posted 9 October, 2010 Come on Saints - keep the momentum going. I would take a 1-0. Don't give a rats about the performance, just the result. It's all that matters right now as we try to scrap our way back to a stable position in mid table from which to push on. The pretty stuff can come later.
marc_saint Posted 9 October, 2010 Posted 9 October, 2010 Officialsaints on twitter: Saints Vs Tranmere: Davis. Butterfield, Fonte, Seaborne, Harding. Lallana, Hammond ©, Chaplow, Puncheon. Guly, Lambert 4-4-2 today with Guly up front with Lambert. Subs are Bart, Jaidi, Dickson, Chamberlain, Bignall, Holmes, Barnard
silversaint Posted 9 October, 2010 Posted 9 October, 2010 Barney on the bench. The echo talk such sh1t.
del boy Posted 9 October, 2010 Posted 9 October, 2010 I get very worried when I read that they are a poor team and are struggling to find 4 fit defenders .... usually means only one thing Barney and Bignall should put up a good fight ...etc.etc .
Window Cleaner Posted 9 October, 2010 Posted 9 October, 2010 ..um, no match thread? well start one then
marc_saint Posted 9 October, 2010 Posted 9 October, 2010 ..um, no match thread? This seems to be it!!! lol
Surman4no7shirt Posted 9 October, 2010 Posted 9 October, 2010 Why do I have to listen to the Tranmere commentary??
Window Cleaner Posted 9 October, 2010 Posted 9 October, 2010 no, I'm shy too late anyway, already done.
