Vigaroux

Thomas Turley Happe Brophy

Cisse

Clay Jobi Dayton

Ruel Johnson


Slight formation change from the current 4-1-4-1 to a 4-1-3-2. Ruel is the best we have at the target man role and is wasted outside. Johnson can’t do it on his own but has to play as he has that habit of scoring goals.

Clay, Jobi and Dayton have enough energy to get backwards ad forwards. Cisse instructed to just sit.

Would swap Wright for clay and JMD for Dayton but agree with the rest.

Unfortunately can’t see Ling or Coulson being dropped and wouldnt begrudge wilko getting the start after 2 in 2

Basing it on tonight mate.

Wright was anonymous. JMD much more lively out of the pair, both on and off the ball.

I like Wilko but he’s not disciplined enough out wide, JMD does the dirty work hat he won’t. The collapse came after he came on and the damage was done all top down our right flank.

The back four will be Ling, Turley, Happe, Brophy

For Ruel read Wilkinson.

The new kid is really tidy on the ball as you’d expect. He’s going to be good for us.

Agree about Wright being anonymous and given his dead ball skills Embleton need to find a way to play JMD, though he' can't tackle and wouldn't be my choice as the player protecting Ling or Brophy (who will both play). Crosses were coming in all night from the left so a bit unfair on Wilkinson who has to start.

Could play JMD instead of Dayton, I guess - gives us more going forward but leaves us weaker when without the ball.

I like Wilko too but just don’t know where to play him.

Hard game to judge him but he does look good. But it’s unlikely he will get a start at Oldham having done the full 90 Tuesday. And Ling did Ok. I can see Thomas doing the Tuesday games for a while.

I agree it’s unlikely. But he did enough to show he’s worthy of a start at Oldham. That first half was one way traffic and he stood up to the test just fine. Second half when we got to play a bit of football, he put in some really good forward passes. Every time he gets the ball he looks to go forwards, not back to the centre half or keeper which is how it should be.

Not necessarily what I'd want to see but more how i think RE will go. It's the first league game and it's away at a 'name' club (relative to FL2) so RE will be conservative and defensive minded. Thomas was knackered last night so he has some fitness catching up to do. JMD and Wilkinson don't get back to cover as readily as Wright and Angol - but it's marginal.

The same team that played forest green apart from ling play thomas

Ling will replace Cisse when he cant play

Ling Coulson Happe Brophy

Wilko Johnson Angol


This is my forecast although I would choose Turley after last night's set piece plays

He demonstrated last night that he can’t play that role. This cannot happen.

Hopefully Hector will be back fit soonish and steps in as his replacement as and when needed.

You must have been watching a different game then.

Nope.

What did he do well? (The goal apart, obvs!)

I say keep the same team that played vs forest green
