Match Day Thread Bristol City v Hull City

"I have no idea what team to pick or what formation to play" M Phelan.

Guess away. Snodgrass is injured. The rest are fit apart from Mbok and the long termers.

The Jak will be back in goal i reckon. Apart from that god knows. Maybe Bowen gets a chance too.

Cant bring myself to say Brizzle will win but they are doing well, 6th in Championship.

1-0 to us.

 

I can't see past a bonkers team selection, no tactics, 11 players who look like strangers regardless of who they are and Bristol running amok.

No changes will be made before the 75th minute. By which time it'll be too late.

3-0.

It's a free hit. PL is what matters, the cup not so much. That will be the excuse. Before the game.

 

---------------------Jak

-------Maguire--Dawson--Davies

Elmo--henriksen--hudd--mason--tymon

---------Hernandez--dio

Could put any of the CMs in there, bar clucas who id leave to rest, wouldn't make much difference the way they're playing

 

What has happened to tail-end charlie Chazz?
I was expecting this MDT about 1hour before kick off.

 

Typo?

 

I would go with in midfield

Jak

Maguire--Dawson--Davies

Elmo Mason Livermore Henriksen Clucas

Hernandez Dio

 

He is on the bench.

 

Nah - he'll start.

 

Not sure what to do with Hernandez. Leave his fragile body for Saturday or play him, let him score and get a confidence boost before the weekend. Keane and Dio could also do with that boost. Wouldn't want to risk Dawson unless absolutely necessary so I'd go with a back four. Clucas also is too important to risk while Robertson is out.

Jakupovic
Elmo Maguire Davies Tymon
Meyler Huddlestone Henriksen
Keane Hernandez Diomande

That front three is probably a bit unbalanced but those are the players I'd want to be involved and we don't have any actual wingers so.

 

Oh **** forgot about Weir.

Put him in somewhere. Still no idea where he plays.

 

Left Back in the dressing room?

 

Tough game this. Bogey ground for us. Expect a comprehensive defeat.

 

City 0-2 Brizzle (Tammy Abraham 2)
Soz
Brizzle 2-0 City

 

use the game as a training game for a 3-5-2- formation to get them more used to it for the weekend

Jak
Livermore--Dawson--Davies
Elmo Mason Clucas Huddlestone Tymon
Hernandez Diomande

 

Doubt we will win.

Meyler and Weir should come into the midfield with Henriksen. Maguire and Dawson to start in defence to contain Abraham.

 

Jakupovic
Livermore Maguire Davies
Elmohamady Henriksen Huddlestone Meyler Tymon
Maloney
Diomande

​

 

He'll have all the newly purchased players who are fit in, plus Jak, Maloney and Tymon. Think it will be 4 at the back to see how Tymon copes, going to 352 when were losing.

 

For the love of God Mike please don't play 4-5-1

 

5-4-1?
