Wtf is going on?
Either covid is in the building or MR has banged the panic button.

Positives in that line up is that we will definitely see Max Biamou come on

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Well if Kasta does what he did when he came on against Peterborough in pre season...

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Positives in that line up is that we will definitely see Max Biamou come on

If that’s the only positive we’re in for a long afternoon

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Random how Wilson played yesterday so isn't injured but Bilson is on the bench?

Wilson on bench. Error by the twitter people.

Let's be honest. Dabo, walker could be covid. We're not going to publicise it are we

This is one of the areas Robins frustrates me (I don't want him sacked). Against Bournemouth 1-3 down after 60 minutes and Bakayoko should have brought on as soon as the 3rd goal went in because nothing was sticking up top. Instead we saved our last sub for the 87th minute and brought McCallum on for Giles. Now we're in a situation where Baka needs to start and he doesn't have a league minute in his legs this season.

Yeah exactly, doesn't like to give certain players minutes.

 

[TomRad85]

the game where we finally look to go 2 up top and we don’t have Walker available. Massively frustrating. Would’ve been tempted to throw Kelly straight back in tbh

Very frustrating. Its the formation i want but ideally you'd want Walker, Dabo, Kelly and Hamer in it.

I've guaranteed him 2 goals before half time with that though

 

[cc84cov]

Seeing Allen At holding midfield pre season he’s in for a tough afternoon chasing shadows

 

[SBT]

There are no injuries. Baka, Biamou and Kasta are just better players and that is a #fact

 

[fernandopartridge]

It’s a line up what wouldn’t look out of place in League 1

That's strange as the team played there a few months ago

 

[Nick]

I think he thinks we should be habouring Premier League players on hundreds of thousands a week like Bournemouth and Watford.

 

[Briles]

Baka Hat trick

 

[SkyBlueOz]

According to Twitter Dabo's partner is about to give birth. I hope this is true and its not an injury.

 

[Saddlebrains]

That teams fucking shite.

Lumping on 5 nil Brentford here. Tragic squad for championship level. Amazing how quick pre season optimism leaves

 

[Marty]

just purchased my match pass, whats with all the adverts on the stream? I think we may struggle today. 3-1 loss.

 

[Johnnythespider]

Max to win it with a 30 yard screamer

 

[Great_Expectations]

Marosi
Rose McFadzean Hyam
Pask Sheaf Allen Giles
O’Hare
Bakayoko Godden

Or Allen with COH and just Sheaf holding?

Big Kelly fan but he’s frustratingly injury prone. It’s a big ask for Sheaf to go from third choice CM to suddenly holding it on his own.

Dabo is a massive loss, Pask is good but not a RWB by any stretch. And that’s a big loss of impact on the right side.

On the positive note; Bakayoko is hopefully on it today and firing on all cylinders, and two up front gives us a different focal point.

I can see us being reliant on Giles in helping transition from defence to attack, especially when with no equivalent on the other side.

Midfield battle looks weak for us, so I could see us going more direct with four attack minded players at the top end (Godden, Baka, COH, Allen).

I actually would like to see Kasteener get some time at RWB, what’s the worst he can do. And we need an alternative attacking option there so why not.

Baka Hat trick

Of touches?

 

[chiefdave]

Wasn't expecting that line up, thats for certain. At least we can't say Robins has been stubborn and stuck with the same team after the last performance.

 

[PVA]

It’s a joke we have Kastaneer on the bench in a league game

Admittedly it seems unlikely, but for all we know Kasta could have been great in training this week

 

[steve cooper]

Route 1 hoofball today I think.

 

[better days]

Let's be honest. Dabo, walker could be covid. We're not going to publicise it are we

Haven't heard anything about covid at the club
Just think Walker has a knock and others have said Dabo is with his partner

 

[robbiekeane]

I am extremely concerned. Couldn’t believe it when I was this on Instagram.

was literally saying yesterday how strong our bench looked

 

[BornSlippySkyBlue]

Was a bit nervous about this game until I saw the team sheet. Now very nervous.

 

[Winny the Bish]

Well I wouldn't call Brentford the ideal team to test a new formation against...hopefully we don't get shellacked.

 

[chiefdave]

Good to see lots of positivity on here

 

[steve cooper]

According to Twitter Dabo's partner is about to give birth. I hope this is true and its not an injury.

She shouldn't be getting an injury, hospitals are doing this all the time

 

[Sick Boy]

still can’t quite believe some thought we had the strength in depth in the squad to challenge for the play-offs

 

[ccfcmad1]

Positive thinking!

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

I find this quite inconsiderate of Dabo’s Mrs to have a baby on match day.

 

[shmmeee]

This'll be one of those weird games where we are all expecting a hiding and pull something out the bag.

Heavy 5-0 vs Blackburn vibes.

 

[cc84cov]

Don’t think I’ve ever seen a meltdown like this on here pre match

 

[Ccfcisparks]

5-0 loss I'm predicting, and I think thats being fairly optimistic.
