kevdoh Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 9 minutes ago, SNSUN said: My guess was that Aribo, Downes or Smallbone were supposed to get forward to become the false 9 but it just didn’t work. It might work better with Fernandes but personally I’d rather see us drop Stephens and bring in Archer, especially against teams like Forest or Brentford. Maybe, but even if that's the case, aribo, smallbone or downes as a false 9 is just as ridiculous. Downes has his role and he does it well. Smallbone did ok last year but he is nowhere near good enough to start in prem. If tomorrow's out field line up is same as last week there is no point even turning up, ramsdale or not 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hypochondriac Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Hasn't been that mental of a last day then. Ramsdale and Fraser we already knew about, we knew we would most likely get a winger.

The same line up that played very well away to Newcastle and had 20 plus shots 80% possession - albeit against 10, but we're well on top before sending off. A good chance line up will change but anyway... Think Smallbone could keep his place, played well v Newcastle and was our best player over the last few weeks of last season - one so so game isn't the end of his prem career I'm sure Edited August 30 by West end Saints 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean if Ings came in and gets the goals that keeps us up it's job done and brandy and cigars all round.... Surely there must be some going out. Staplewood is going to be overcrowded We are building a squad for the future as well as the now.

But to line up at home against a team that's going to be in and around the bottom and play that way not acceptable. And to score 5 midweek, appreciating it's cardiffs reserves and Russ to say we played too safe at times is laughable. Can't remember the last time the entire midfield were looking to attack instead of the easy ball 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
