Where's Bayer?
Re: Them down the road v Champions
Reserve team should be good enough
Re: Them down the road v Champions
Bit worried after seeing that team. I trust Kompany of course but I really don’t get what he sees in Vitinho on the right wing.

He looked injured at the end of the QPR game.
Re: Them down the road v Champions
At times I just don’t get the tinkering. Breyer all day long surely?

Re: Them down the road v Champions
Not particularly keen on Vitinho on the wing.
Re: Them down the road v Champions
3 strikers on the bench and the obsession with playing Vitinho as a winger continues, poor looking team.

Woah, some interesting choices there, especially with THB and a couple of wingers being fit. Beyer did the media yesterday as well.

Re: Them down the road v Champions
Bit risky having Taylor in as centre half but hopefully he'll do well

Re: Them down the road v Champions
Well, he's lost me tbh.
Sure doesn't look even close to a first choice team.
Rovers will fancy this.

Beyer injured? I seem to remember him taking a knock towards the end of the last game

He sounded sick yesterday. Flu?
Re: Them down the road v Champions
He likes Vitinho for his energy and pressing but you don’t really get much from him in an attacking sense.Newcastleclaret93 wrote: ↑Tue Apr 25, 2023 7:06 pmI would rather any of Foster, Benson, Obafemi started on the right. No idea what Kompany is doing in such a big game
Re: Them down the road v Champions
Slightly confused by quite a bit of that.
Let’s hope it comes together.

Re: Them down the road v Champions
Beyer clearly injured or ill, otherwise he’s the first name on the team sheet.

Re: Them down the road v Champions
At least we have potential firepower on the bench and our subs have won us loads of points, plus VK not slow to change it around, but agree surprised to see Vitinho start, and Taylor in at CB

Re: Them down the road v Champions
Trust the manager on this - obvious that Beyer must be unavailable and he’s clearly decided he wants the impact of Benny to come on. There’s method in these decisions.
The prospect of Benny and Jay to come on if we keep it tight till the last 30 suits me.

Re: Them down the road v Champions
Strange line up again.
Al Dakhil I can see, but Taylor for Beyer!, is he injured?
I'd have preferred Benson to Vitinho, but at least he can come on.
Biggest surprise is Ash, he was poor on Saturday, yet he does have the character to lift himself for this fixture.
Fingers crossed, if they're all on form we are capable of beating anyone, but it isn't a game we can afford to carry people.

Cork should be cm with Brownhill forward

Re: Them down the road v Champions
There are only three changes - it's NOT a reserve team!!!!
Get a grip.

Re: Them down the road v Champions
If Beyer is ill/injured it’s only a couple short of being the best eleven from those available.

Re: Them down the road v Champions
Very worried by that line-up.
Assume Bayer is injured.
He's a massive loss
Obviously no Tella, so IMO that's our two key players out, and with no Benson in the starting line-up you have to wonder where our goals will come from.
The squad doesn't look so strong now does it, with Vitinho on the wing (again).

Re: Them down the road v Champions
If I didn't know better, it'd look a bit like a kid in charge of Burnley on Champ Manager at the end of the season.
Obviously, VK knows a lot more than I do. Let's see what happens.

Re: Them down the road v Champions
Can understand Benson rested
Certain to have been hit hard early and then he would likely disappear

Re: Them down the road v Champions
In the press conference Beyer didn’t give any indication that he wouldn’t be playing. Must be unexpected, injury, sickness or personal. Taylor is fine in central defence though, as is Al Dakhil.
I think Benson does best when he comes on as a sub. He’ll get clattered less as well.
Come onnnn!

That starting eleven has about 40 goals between them this season.nil_desperandum wrote: ↑Tue Apr 25, 2023 7:11 pmVery worried by that line-up.

Stop fretting… we’ll batter them
Re: Them down the road v Champions
Would have liked to see Cork in there tonight for his experience. We were like headless chickens in the second half on Saturday.

Re: Them down the road v Champions
This fascination with Vitinho on the wing is weird. Add to that, Zaroury has been poor since returning from the WC.
