Is this the first outing for the Godden/Walker partnership?

I believe its the first start yes

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Well we’ve got the 442 people were screaming for. Not convinced myself. Basically the same mess of a midfield as before but with two up front and four at the back. No Hyam or Rose I guess means you have to play this but looks very thrown together, no width, little attacking intent outside the front three, let’s hope it works out.

Well if Hyam's injured unexpectedly he didn't have much choice.

 

[Skybluefaz]

I doubt Robins would chuck an inexperienced kid in out of position at right wingback

Burroughs would be more likely to be put in there I would have thought. 442 diamond.

Fingers crossed it will work. They might crowd each other out. But starting two up front is at least a positive start.

Hamer is one of our best (if not the best) attacking players, pretty sure he wouldn’t be happy being asked to play RWB

I agree that he wouldnt be happy, but if the team manager asks you to do a job, you do it. So, I don't think your scenario of Robins asking him exists.

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

Happy with it. I’ve criticised him for not adapting or changing. He’s given something else ago.

I think this is what they've been trying to achieve all season but things have gone pear-shaped with injuries etc. Should be interesting to watch.

I hope they click as a pair, we desperately need their goals

 

[no_loyalty]

You will see when the game starts, I’m 90% sure that’s what we’re playing

I can’t see Eccles playing RWB, it looks like a 4-3-1-2 formation.

Will probably win 2-0 then never play it again

For me it looks more like 4-1-2-1-2. We shall see, either way as long as it works I’m happy

It is for us although they played a few games upfront together at Stevenage

Haha true

 

[Johhny Blue]

Waiting for the kickoff to be delayed

 

[Evo1883]

Will work if the fullbacks get involved and overlap when needed

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Thank fuck he’s changed it !!!

Hyam & Rose gone which is good they’ve been shit,Walker & Godden Happy to see Eccles in there James & Kelly will help him❤

So, just to concur, before we kick off - you agree with MR's selection - so no moaning about the team selection?

 

[johnwillomagic]

Surely it's 4-3-1-2 isn't it?

Eccles, Kelly, James in the sitting 3
O'Hare just behind the front two of Walker & Godden.

Quite like the side and Hamer needed a rest or a kick up the backside whichever way you want to look at it!

 

[TwistAndShoutCCFC1987]

Seems to be our setup ... thoughts?

 

[procdoc]

Think Pask has been bought in for defensive stability more than as an attacking option. Think we will be relying more on McCallum to provide that from the left

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

They have been poor but only Thompson as CB cover is a bit of a worry. Pretty happy with that otherwise.

Pask could cover if an injury, with Hamer dropping to full back?

 

[fatso]

Lets do This City, I’m going for a 2-0 win !

 

[procdoc]

Dacosta would drop to full back should we need Pask at centre half

Great to see Dabo back from injury

 

[TwistAndShoutCCFC1987]

Haha Yeah forgot pask

 

[Johnnythespider]

Dabo ?

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Thoughts - Dabo isn't playing

 

[TwistAndShoutCCFC1987]

Dabo ?

Changed an old squad and forgot to swap out dabo for pask

I've got an unexpected bout of optimism. First time in ages.

I really like this. Attacking intent, probably our best eleven bar Dabo. This means we are certain to lose

 

[Johnnythespider]

However we line up lets hope it works and we've got 3 points at 5 O'clock

AND THE SKY BLUES ARE IN BIG TROUBLE HERE

Need to get in their faces and ruffle some feathers

Pask and McCallum probably better off as full backs, Eccles for Hamer the bigger surprise. Great to see Walker and Godden starting for the first time

 

[procdoc]

Let’s hope we don’t defend like fucking twats today!
