Anti-Dingle-Brigade Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 I wonder how we'll line-up for this one? I don't think any of our strikers apart from Roque can play on their own, so we'll probably have to go 4-4-2. Robinson Simpson Ooijer Samba Olsson Emerton Grella Warnock Villanueva Derbyshire McCarthy I think I'd line-up like that. I'm a little bit worried that Bolton will play Davies on the right and he'll overpower Olsson, but with so many injuries in the centre I think Ince will choose to keep Warnock there. I'd agree with most of that, but I'd start Roberts and McCarthy. Derbyshire can't (yet) impose himself on a game from the start. He is needed when the opposition are getting tired and not concentrating. EDIT: official ROVERS: Robinson, Ooijer, Warnock, Samba, Tugay, Nelsen ©, Emerton, Villanueva, Simpson, Fowler, Roberts. Subs: Brown (GK), McCarthy, Grella, Khizanishvili, Andrews, Treacy, Derbyshire. FOWLER?!?!? Hat trick, anyone? MGP dropped, Carlos on the left. I can see where he's going with this, but it's risky. We do have some good players who can punish them from the bench though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cocker Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 MGP dropped from the squad. Robinson - Ooijer, Samba, Nelsen, Simpson - Emerton, Tugay, Warnock, Villanueva - Fowler, Roberts with Grella, Brown, Derbs, Benni, Treacy, Zurab, and Andrews on the bench I seem to be one of the few that actually wants Ped in the team but anyway happy that King Carlos is getting a start. Hopefully Fowler will be able to pull his weight too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrone Shoelaces Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Oh dear, will either of Tugay or Warnock get forward to support the front two, in fact will they get out of our half ? Fowler ? Not a game for Villanueva to start in my opinion. Let's hope I'm wrong, with that team I'd take a draw now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew92 Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 I need to know I have seen all the time people referring to it as the breezeblock stadium I don't get that joke can someone explain it to me?this was I thought the most appropriate thread to stick this in. well its called the breezeblock because thats what it is made out off. plus it is the coldest place in the world, the wind just circles round the stadium. thats pretty much it, its becase its really cold!!

philipl Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 That looks weak. No Olsson either and a front line that might click but will probably be powder-puff ineffectual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anti-Dingle-Brigade Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 I didn't realise Olsson wasn't there. So, Simpson on the right, or the left? With Ooijer on the right? Or left? I bet Megson is even more confused than we are. I'm in BRFCS Chat if anybody wants to join. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dopper69 Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 So are we lining up with Oojer left back and Warnock left midfield?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krislu Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Just look at our line-up, can it get more depressing and boring?! Robinson Simpson, Nelsen, Samba, Ooijer Emerton, Villanueva, Kerimoglu, Warnock Fowler, Roberts The club is falling apart, and our team looks about as good as when Hughes first took over. At one stage against ManU our midfield looked like this: Emerton - Tugay - Warnock - Tracy ==> WORST I've seen in years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeChuck Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Ooijer has obviously been put on the left to mark Davies, who will be playing on the right. Personally I think it's a pretty good idea. Not keen on strike force though, they wouldn't look out of place starting for Stoke or any other relegation threatened team. Edit: I wish people would stop thinking Villanueva will play centre midfield in a 4-4-2, it's never going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game hasn't even started yet and its all doom and gloom. Time for you to sit on the bench with your fellow countryman. And yes, it could get more depressing, Get Pederson on.

Mr. E Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 So far Fowler and Carlos have been terrible, losing every ball. Tugay though has made some good passes and crosses, and Simspon's tackle saved a certain goal. Pretty even really, just a matter of who shows that extra edge to score.

LeChuck Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 And there's why Roberts shouldn't be starting. Useless. Fowler hasn't been any better either. Get Derbyshire on for Fowler and have him running the channels, we need more options. McCarthy on for Roberts as well, we can't afford to miss chances and McCarthy will take them if he gets them.
