What's our best fit team now?

[MancMagpie]

................Schofield

Oxlade C Barclay Duffy Jones

Alessandra Rose O'Brien Boldewijn

....Mackail-Smith Hemmings


Subs: Fitz, Tootle, Evina, Ward, Hewitt, Vaughan, Stead

[forwardmagpie]

Bird in defence for me

Anyone in place of Jones (is Bob Worthington still available)

If Hemings isn’t fit I would play Vaughan in a five man midfield

................Schofield

Oxlade C Barclay Duffy Jones

Alessandra Rose O'Brien Boldewijn

....Mackail-Smith Hemmings


Subs: Fitz, Tootle, Evina, Ward, Hewitt, Vaughan, Stead

Schofield
Barclay Duffy Bird.
Tootle Evina
Aless O'Brien Rose
Hemmings Enzio
Subs
Fitz, Dennis, Ward,Mac Smith, Hewitt, Jones, Stead
Maybe Hewitt in midfield and leave out Evina

[ncfcog]

Schofield
Barclay Duffy Bird.
Tootle Evina
Aless O'Brien Rose
Hemmings Enzio
Subs
Fitz, Dennis, Ward,Mac Smith, Hewitt, Jones, Stead
Maybe Hewitt in midfield and leave out Evina

I think that is quite close but would like to see Kellett in there somewhere, maybe as a sub for Aless if he tires but with Aless/Kellett in that No.10 role which worked well for us under HK.

So

Schofield
Barclay Duffy Bird.
Tootle Evina
Enzio O'Brien Rose
Aless (Kellett)
Hemmings

Mind you we still have CMS who could also play that No.10 role or the role expected of Hemmings/Stead. We have no choice now but to throw caution to the wind so need to set up as attack minded as possible, we have been better when we have done this in the past.

It's interesting because you are starting to see the type of players NA likes and you can see in O'Brien, Rose, CMS etc that he wants players who will run through brick walls for him whilst maintaining a basic level of footballing intelligence to be able to carry out his instructions satisfactorily.

To be fair we could be in for an interesting few months.

That's what I'm seeing. Promising.

It’s tough.. 4-4-2 or 4-3-3.
With the players we have I like the look of 4-3-3.
Schofield
Toots/Barclay/Duffy/Evina
Vaughan with Rose and O’Brien running around like warriors.
CMS Hemmings Enzio in a fluid 3

[kill_the_drum]

It’s interesting how Stead still isn’t a fans favourite.
He’s arguably one of the only players to come close to earning his salary this season and yet nobody has so far put him in their starting 11.

He is past it thats why.. He cant jump, He cant head a ball, He cant trap a ball and he is forever falling over..

But that’s just not true though is it!
Stead has had numerous games this season where he’s been superb upfront on his own and run himself into the ground.
He’s without question been the best striker on our books!

[durhampie]

I would go for this line up..



..............Schofield............
Barclay....Duffy.... Bird...Evina

Enzio.....O'Brien....Rose....Allesandra

............ Dennis... Smith......

Subs,

Fitz
Hemmings,
Tootle
Osbourne
Jones
Kellett

The likes of Vaughan and Stead should be nowhere near the ground..
