whelk Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 Just at the goalscorer odds for the game. First seven players in betting are all Bournemouth. Somehow think we will win this one though based on absolutely nothing other than blind hope. Although i think might put £100k on Evanilson to score at 11/8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

die Mannyschaft Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 Playing out from back allows teams to regroup and take it easy and just watch us pass around. That then reduces the number of chances we create, I can't see a win so a 3 nil loss. We struggle v direct football teams or ones with any pace. Another must win game, perhaps a sink hole at Bournemouth will get game called off. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't arrange a sink but having visited Bournemouth 2 weeks after a long time I can confirm that it is definitely now a 'hole'. What have they done to the town centre?? No decent shops anywhere and more druggies and beggars I've seen in one place for years. It made Northam Road look like Knightsbridge. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nordic Saint Posted September 26 Share Posted September 26 I'd like to see Tyler Dibling played in a more central position up front with Amo-Ameyaw on the wing, as I think they'd score goals against the Bournemouth defence (and I can't be proved wrong because it's not going to happen). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am glad someone else got to this before me, and whilst there isn't a HUGE difference between the actual numbers (about an hour in play in favour of Carillo in the prem vs TP and 1 more start) AND to confirm I am not sure TP is the answer either, BUT he is still here AND, unlike AA, Archer, BBD, Stewart, the Tea Lady, toilet cleaner and 99% of fans on match day HAS scored in a top league (again whether those leagues are competitive or not). Therefore instead of watching AA not lead the line, Archer flail around like a fish out of water, BBD run and fall over and Stewart get injured, maybe we just give him a go. What's the worst that could happen, we don't score again? The alternatives, I guess is what I am getting at, don't fill me with much confidence either. As it happens from the in crowd I'd rather give Stewart a go but that's more out of hope than expectation.

The clamour is centred around being in a fairly dire situation, having had a poor start against moderate opposition (aside from Utd). Carillo is derided because everyone and his dog knew he was going to be shit except the odd "give him a chance" crew. Carillo had scored nowhere throughout his career. Onuachu had scored multiple goals across multiple seasons across multiple leagues.
