Team v Taffs

[silverlion]

Never an easy place to go and with their assistant manager doing everything he can to make the job permanent they will be busting a gut to get a result. On the other hand we are playing well and confidence is high so we are looking to carry on where we left off against Preston. We are a few short in the squad so there are few options, especially on the bench.

There is little doubt that Jensen will wear the gloves. He played well on Saturday and was disappointed to concede late on. It wasn’t his fault as their scorer was presented with the ball at his feet and he just smashed it in. Leonard had another aggressive game and should start ahead of Danny. Tango looks class and alongside Jake they look a formidable pair. Joe had a decent game and will be looking to carry on where he left off on Saturday.
Assuming that Sav suffered no ill effects after the last game and can play two games in 72 hours then he should be good to start alongside Casper. Watmore looked lively so he should start on the left and MOM Esse should be raring to go on the right. George will be buoyed by his goal and keen to get his boots on and Langstaff will be looking to add to his goal tally in Wales.
The biggest issues are who will be on the bench. Azeez is crocked so he may have to wait until Saturday before he makes a return. Wintle is ineligible as Cardiff are his parent club and Emakhu got an unfair red after being kicked so he will have to sit it out.

My thoughts are,

Jensen
Leonard Tango Cooper Joe
Esse Sav Casper Watmore
Honeyman
Langstaff

Subs Roberts Danny Hutch Wes Murray Kelly Serb Lawson Smith

Winning runs are usually based on an unchanged or little changed starting 11.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
I saw the highlights of Cardiff's game on Saturday.
Whilst they scored first, they were poor and got blown away as the match wore on.
Hopefully, that is their level at the moment.

Cardiff have scored 2 and conceded 17 in their first 7 games.

In the past, these are the games we come unstuck. Can't see that happening at the moment though. Away from home, If we can't win it, don't get beat.

Must be the hardest team selection meeting he's ever had.at least 2 secs same again

Same again, we were noticeably weaker after our subs on Saturday and Preston were on top from then.

Reckon Langstaff could do the job that Honeyman does in the No.10 role? With Langstaff dropping deeper, it allows either Ivanovic/Coburn (when fit) to start up top.

Think they'd link up rather well and can easily convert the 4-2-3-1 into a 4-4-2 in scenarios.

Just a thought. I'm happy with the team atm, but feel Langstaff can do what Honeyman does, with better quality in the final third. Think it just makes us perhaps more counter attacking, rather than breaking teams down

Honeyman could always be someone who rotates with Saville.

I can't remember a time we've been spoilt for choice,

People keep saying about dropping or moving Honeyman but I'll keep telling you all until you realise. Honeyman in the 10 is the key to our current way of playing. Why would you want to change it?

If was a Saturday we'd muster 1,200. Midweek i reckon around 800. Not bad considering it ain't cheap to travel and we'll be bringing a big following to West Brom on Saturday too.
