Cardiff starting 11 on 22:22 - Oct 22 with 3187 views | Nortbankboy | That probably the best we can put out. The problem is he's not been using Rutledge so he is not match fit. Roberts was poor tonight. Trying to hard to get forward then to knackered to defend. He there to defend first.

Yes that looks a better shape side. Problem then is throwing players in because are not match fit. And Cooper is to blame for that | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Cardiff starting 11 on 01:46 - Oct 23 with 2942 views | TimTtam | I understand this starting formation would possibly never be used by a manager again, but: Woodman Naughton . van der Hoorn . Rodon Fulton . Wilmot (DM) . Grimes Ayew . Celina . Routledge Borja Something has to be done to gain control in the midfield. I would try and make a team with these particular players. With Wilmot as a DM, it would hopefully allow Grimes to go forward more often and be creative. I originally had Peterson in, but I changed it for Routledge due to him having derby experience.

Unfortunately that would see us get destroyed down both flanks. We simply don’t have the option we need in central midfield, he has to work around that and bring a bit of hunger and desire to the side, his laid back, nonchalant attitude seems to have crept onto the pitch Woodman Roberts Rodon (if fit) VdH Naughton Fulton Grimes Ayew Celina Routledge Baston Byers to come on if and when the game opens up second half. 50/50 between Routledge and Peterson, Routledge gets the edge because he’s got derby experience. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

It's a tough formation cause as you rightly point out, 3 at the back is dangerous. But it's a question of whether we want to sacrifice some of our defense in order to gain midfield control. The 4-2-3-1 could be used I suppose, if Rodon can't get up for Sunday, with Wilmot replacing him. It would mean he could operate at times as a CB, and at other times a DM. The 4-1-4-1 could also be used against Cardiff, since their hoofball tactics mean the ball will be flying over the top of the midfield anyway. Grimes to stay in there, with Ayew moving central alongside Celina, and 2 wingers around them (Dyer and Routs gives us necessary experience). Or 4-1-3-2, with Ayew moving up forward alongside Borja. There are tonnes of options Cooper can try. At this stage, it's worth a change in formation cause we've played in a 4-2-3-1 in all league and cup games. | ![](/images/avatars/26211.gif) |

Cardiff starting 11 on 10:00 - Oct 23 with 2708 views | BryanSwan | Would go for a bit more experience and some who you know will leave it all out there. Woodman Naughton VDH Rodon Bidwell Fulton Grimes Dyer Routledge Ayew Baston Midfield is still the big problem, no matter which combination we still look so weak in there. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

I think this is pretty much my team too. I agree with the inclusion of Routs, I think he’s a clever player and knows what the game means. However, does he have the pace required to play on the wing any more? I would say the same thing in that it’s 50/50 with him and Peterson. Peterson would be excellent against tired legs for the last 20 mins or so as an impact sub though. | ![](/images/avatars/8848.gif) |

Not a bad idea. Frees up a spot for another genuine winger to come in too. | ![](/images/avatars/26211.gif) |

Hoilett? He's a 60 minute a game player at the moment. Murphy may beat Roberts but has no end product. On the right, if it's Mendez-Laing he'd cause problems. Whyte works hard, tracks back but not yet seen good delivery from him. It all depends who Warnock goes with up front. I suspect Ward has earnt the starting gig from Glatzel with Tomlin behind. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
