If I see peltier at defensive midfield then I’m watching the champion’s league instead 😂 Link to post Share on other sites

Warnock said Peltier comfortable at left back in a back 4 but would not stick him there in a back 5 as he struggles to get past half way line. Can see following if he wants a back 4 and Paddy n Bola remain out Lumley Dijk Fry Hal Peltier Howson Siliki Tav Crooks Onel Uche Young Jones given a rest. Link to post Share on other sites
Neverbefore 10,939 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Who's the left back for our u23s? Surely trying them out would be better than doubly weakening our side by keeping Jones out of our forward line when he's clearly not a left back. Link to post Share on other sites

Think it might be Kokolo now 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Old Codger 3,063 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Believe that is Kokolo.. was on bench once or twice and did well in game on Monday.. fairly certain can play as a wing-back if required Link to post Share on other sites

SouthernSmoggie 4,242 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Interesting points from Warnock's interview: - Coventry loss largely down to off games from key players. Made mistakes and bad decisions then tried too hard, should have gone back to basics - Losing Paddy was huge blow (Why the f*** did NI run him into the ground for 95 minutes on a plastic pitch in a friendly?) Unlikely he plays tomorrow - Says Siliki was okay with the ball but didn't do enough off it. New boys need to adapt fast - Payero trained well and would have started on Saturday but hurt his ankle right at the end of training. Doubt for tomorrow - Asked: "Is Forest an easy game?" Reply: "They probably think we are, if they watched us on Saturday" 1 Link to post Share on other sites
