First Choice Team?? 17:08 - Jul 27 with 3538 views

So after seeing all the friendlies... how would you start for the first team?? I think we have looked better with 2 strikers on.. and Borja looks like he can do some good things this time around..

--------------------Mulder-------------
Roberts-------VDH------Rodon-------Bidwell
--------------Fulton------Grimes------------
Dyer------------Mcburnie--------Celina
--------------------Borja-----------------------

If the game against Atlanta is anything to go by.. we looked too slow on our attacking build up. But as soon as we had 2 strikers on.. we looked so much better.

Bidwell, based on what we've seen of him, shouldn't be starting ahead of John. But he will.

I'd go:

Mulder
Roberts, VDH, Rodon, John
Byers, Grimes
Dyer, Celina, Routledge
OMB

Which leaves us with really good options to change it up in the second half.

Byers? Fulton has played himself way ahead of him.

If Baston stays he has to start I reckon instead of Routledge or Dyer.

Against league 1 and 2 opposition he has.

I assume you've decided to forget all about last season?

Not for me. Think Cooper will eventually come to the same conclusion Potter did for our midfield.

Fulton is more stable, Byers goes very quickly from very excited to head down - skilful though.

Fulton is bang average. Byers is a footballer.

Roberts and Kyle is a close call.
Roberts for me.

John left back.

Big difference between them is how rarely Fulton offers for the ball. We find it harder to play out when he's on the pitch, especially late on in games when players tire. Byers far from perfect but he wants the ball and to keep it moving.

Less of an issue when you've got both Oli and Borja to go long towards, as Mulder started doing in the second half today.

I'll go with:
--------------------Mulder-------------
Naughton-----VDH----Rodon-----Bidwell
--------------Fulton---------Grimes------------
Routledge----------Mcburnie-------- Celina
--------------------Borja-----------------------

it was close between Naughton and Roberts, then I checked the pre season games and found that when Naughton was playing, there were no goals conceded, it's not much but it swung it.

Agree though really torn between Fulton and Byers. Byers probably edges it.

I think if you're playing OMB & Baston, Fulton gets in. If not, there's a place for Byers.

Byers is better on he ball, Fulton is better winning the ball.

I've had a check for games we lost last season:

out of 45 games roberts played in, we lost 16 times = 35.5% of games he played in were losses.

out of 35 games naughton played in, we lost 10 times = 28.5% of games he played were loses.

if you look at the age difference, roberts will improve where naughton will get slower, so naughton is just edging it at the moment.

Based on the squad that is here right now? I think it would be hard to choose between formation let alone players

We could go for what we had last season in the 4-2-3-1

--------------------Mulder------------------------
---Roberts-------VDH------Rodon-------john-----
--------------Fulton------Grimes------------
----Ayew------------Celina--------Routledge-----
-------------------McBurnie-----------------------

Move to a 4-4-2

--------------------Mulder------------------------
---Roberts-------VDH------Rodon-------john----
--Dyer------Fulton------Grimes------Routledge--
----------Borja------McBurnie-------------

Dare I suggest the 4-3-3??

--------------------Mulder------------------------
---Roberts-------VDH------Rodon-------john-----
--------------Fulton---Byers---Grimes------------
------Ayew-------Borja--------Celina

Our squad is packed with talent.

First Choice Team?? on 07:55 - Jul 28 with 2405 views

shandyjack

based on Ayew leaving i'd go

Mulder
Roberts VDH Rodon Bidwell

Byers Grimes

New winger/Wayne Oli Celina

Baston

They won’t be dropping Celina. He’d play on the left with Routs and Nath battling for the right wing spot.
