Remaining 2 games - stick or change

[hopelesslyoptimistic]

It's not just the games against Wigan and Brentford (although they were probably the worst performances by a 1st team squad since we came back to the Championship), it's the faltering nature of play since January, and if they couldn't do it against those two sides, what is the likelihood of anything better coming from the Villa game?

At least if the youngsters played and lost, it would give some of the senior squad the opportunity to recharge batteries, train so as to come to the playoffs fit and ready to do the necessary, and if the youngsters do the business and we get a result, then Ipswich ought (emphasis on ought!) to be a more straightforward affair.

Play the seniors, lose or draw, and pick up a couple of knocks to let players and the playoffs would be our swansong.

agree with much of that. Not sure our worst performances since we came back to the championship we are so much better in both squad and play than some of the recent seasons where the concept of passing the ball to another player seemed alien.

The last two games lots of players have looked shot so that is why I think they could do worse than play a lot of kids AND send those not playing away for a week to recharge and step outside the all encompassing bubble. Lots of teams do it and it seems to work.

We we have created so many chances but in the final third our football has looked stale and predictable and needs freshening up. Joel - agree completely re Bamford and Roofe. Roofe busts a gut on the field - Bamford busts my patience for his inability to match Roofe’s effort.

Bite, Bite, Bite. Get a life, get on someone else's back (if you have the naus that is).

I believe the aggressive put down typically requires the use of proper grammar and correct use of words. Nous is the word I believe you were searching for .....

Baffles me people are saying play the kids? We can still go up auto, stop giving up on the team after 2 performances, yes they've been bad but this is the Championship it is not impossible to think we will beat Villa and Sheff U will bottle it at Ipswich, we get 3, they get 1 and all of sudden it all rides on the last game.

Play the team that has got us this far, forget the kids, yes they've done well against other kids but we played most of that team vs QPR in the cup and they got battered, what good does them getting battered vs Villa do, if anything we need to go full strength vs Villa incase of a playoff game we need the momentum over them, not a 4/5-0 drubbing at home.

Casilla
Ayling
Jansson
Cooper
Dallas (Sadly with Douglas and Alioski out)
Phillips
Hernandez
Roberts (I'd rather not, think he is wildly over rated)
Harrison
Roofe (Aware Bamford has scored some goals but Roofe for me is the more all round footballer for us)

We can still go up auto 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Ffs

Roofe is carrying a hip injury he is ****ed

Dont tell me Bamford will score 6 aginst derby or whoever in the semi

Then he will hit 7 against villa in the final

The 7 club wonder
Hes a typical acadamy player had it to easy
That quiff of his does not even get wet with sweat
He is a bloody puff

If he doesn't give Shackleton a run out then he is certifiable.

The following stat from the match preview says it all:

Top scorer

Leeds United: Kemar Roofe (14)

Aston Villa: Tammy Abraham (25)

And it would be a similar disparity between almost any team in the top half of the table. We are great at creating chances but abysmal at converting them.
