James Posted 4 February, 2012 Share Posted 4 February, 2012 Will be annoyed if Connolly does start over Sharp, he was pants against Leicester and Cardiff and has a tendency to go missing in tough away games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wade Garrett Posted 4 February, 2012 Share Posted 4 February, 2012 Good to see Adkins keeping faith in Connolly. Sharp, if/when required, will come off the bench very hungry to prove he should be starting ahead of Connolly. And Connolly will be busting a gut to prove the opposite. Clever man management from Adkins. Would have been so easy to have pandered to the obvious clamour to start Sharp. Birmingham will also have assumed that Sharp would start, so puts them on the back foot a little (tactically). IMHO of course... Why don't we really put them on the back foot by not starting Lambert! I'm afraid I don't agree with your argument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doggface Posted 4 February, 2012 Share Posted 4 February, 2012 Connolly is off form so would rather sharp started. However on this site people are always saying when he scores that Connolly is our best striker when fit. Now he is a liability?!?

Birmingham will also have assumed that Sharp would start, so puts them on the back foot a little (tactically). IMHO of course... He didnt bust a gut the other night knowing we had Lee on the bench (who did more in his 30mins than Connolly did in 80) and Sharp who couldn't be in the side. DC should not make the bench today, it should look like... Bart, Harding, Hammond/Morgan, Lee, Chappers/Guly/SDR or Falque. Sharp must start and Lee looks like he has a lot to give the team, if fit, Chappers and who ever does not start out of Deano & Morgan will always make the bench + DC has done very little recently.

Saint Charlie Posted 4 February, 2012 Share Posted 4 February, 2012 Adkins is going to have tough calls to make once Chaplow is back. Some bloody good players won't even get on the bench like today.

It may turn out to be the right move or it may turn out to be wrong. Maybe we should wait until the end of the game to judge? Call me old fashioned.
