He's only impressed in flashes, much like Britt. Think you do him a disservice there, to be honest. I thought he was great last year at times and I wouldn't even class him as the same kind of forward as Britt anyway. The things Fletch has impressed with are more varied than what Britt has, for me. Fletch's interplay was great at times, he combined pretty well with other attacking players whereas Britt's biggest issue has often been contributing very little to the build-up play. Same as Akpom too, apart from a couple of off-the-ball runs, Akpom doesn't seem to do much with the ball unless he's a couple of yards from goal. Link to post Share on other sites
DanFromDownSouth 1,706 Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Think Mbenza for Huddersfield always looks a decent player when I've seen him, out of contract in the summer too. Link to post Share on other sites
SmogDane 4,052 Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 (edited) It's got to be wingbacks .. I am happy with that team! (bar Butternelli) Bola and Fisher will make good wing backs .. Mc'Nair can push forward better .. Hall will do well in a 3 Dijksteel as well Kebab as a 10 .. Watmore and Fletch up top .. What's not to like? I'm with Blanco here .. 4-0! 2 Link to post Share on other sites

It's about getting the win at all costs regardless of how the goals come etc. Completely agree. Win at all costs tonight to arrest the slump. The better football (wishful thinking perhaps) can come later. Link to post Share on other sites
BillyWoofs_shinpad 1,884 Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 I think it’s the usual 433, it’ll be Watmore and Kebano on the wings, Fletch up front with McNair moved into midfield and 4 at the back. Link to post Share on other sites

Changing Times 12,211 Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 25 minutes ago, Whoppy said: Definitely a back 3 with wingbacks. I don’t think NW rates the Dijksteel-McNair centre back partnership (I certainly don’t) and wants an extra body in there. Hall will hopefully offer a bit more height and strength as we were totally bullied by Derby and Rotherham. What a difference Fry and Tav would make to this team though, no wonder Warnock is bemoaning it. im going for 1-1. If it's a back 3 then I'd suggest he also doesn't rate Hall that highly either otherwise he'd just play Hall with McNair. I thought Tavernier was overrated? 1 Link to post Share on other sites

GrimsbyBoro 1,956 Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Has Warnock play Djik in midfield? Link to post Share on other sites
Borodane 6,246 Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 In doubt about whether I should buy the stream tonight. Looks like he has made some changes so it might be a decent chance to see a win. However my gut says it’s going to be a disappointment again. Link to post Share on other sites

White Band 831 Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Fletch is starting! So pleased to see him back in a starting 11 after so long out. Hope he does us proud. Link to post Share on other sites
