Sheaf Saint Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 So who's playing RB then? Bednarek? Stephens? Salisu? I'm really not sure bringing Macca back is the best idea here either. Fraser has done nothing wrong in the games he has played recently. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davefizzy14 Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 (edited) Really don't think Jan should be at right back. He needs to be in his actual position.

Probably the usual 4222 with Bednarek right back and Stephens in central midfield. No chance a left footed centre back like Salisu will be playing right back when Bednarek is in the team.

Teddeer Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 Interesting eleven and let's wait to see how Ralph has them set up. Can't see us scoring but let's see what happens. Could be any score this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to play centre back , communication with keeper so important so don't agree with all this changing just when Forster building solid relationship with centre backs, we've just aiming to take a 4-0 defeat tonight and move on to Sunday.

ChrisPY Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 Think Ralph probably gave assurances of a cup keeper and a league keeper. Forster has now become our league keeper but given how we’ve progressed in the FA Cup, would be harsh to also remove him from that team but also unfair to give McCarthy no games. Seems reasonable to use him in a ‘free hit’ games, especially one against a team he has put in probably his best performance of the last 12 months.

sydney_saint Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 Once again Redmond back in the starting XI. Did he earn his way back in? Did he fuck. And that's the problem with him, he never has to play his way back into the side. I would rather have played Watts. It rewards poor performances.

I know the thinking. But that wasn't my point. I would rather have played Watts. He's looked handy in his couple of appearances and so that rewards positive play.

badgerx16 Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 The BBC empahsising again that the last time we played in Manchester we had 2 red cards, ( amongst certain other details about the match at OT ). They never seem to add that the second was unwarranted, subsequently rescinded, and that the final result was a consequence of the referee's utter incompetence in buying Martial's play acting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badgerx16 Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 Maybe KWP and Tella aren't match fit - KWP is only just back from injury, and NT was getting kicked all over the place by Sheff Utd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
