He may even start Payero and Silki at this rate.... Thank god for these compromises. I would snap your hands off with two wins on the bounce mate. Seems many a year ago since we managed that.

DevKWat 2,370 Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Why does Craig Johns persist on pushing the 3-5-2.. he also claims there’s a ‘clamour’ to see Ikpeazu and Sporar as a front 2, the only clamour I’ve seen is for Neil’s head which Johns’ also fails to acknowledge. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Cos we don't have a right back available would be at least one reason. There has been a clamour on here from Foxtrot Oscar Warnock. I think he suggested just that front two the other day when we were chatting about the potential Peterborough team on the Warnock thread. Link to post Share on other sites

sanddancer 1,967 Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 (edited) Who are the seven injured first team players NW is referring? Is this an expected amount of injuries teams expect? What the best source for news of this nature? Edited October 14, 2021 by sanddancer Link to post Share on other sites

Going by the 1st team squad on the official site we have 27 first team players (a few of them are youngsters granted, but theyve been seen as close enough to the first team to be included). That means we should have 20 players considered first team ready available if the 7 is an accurate number. Injuries are no excuse whatsoever, especially considering what reading did to us with no defenders available. Link to post Share on other sites

The EG is just frustrating and a waste of time trying to read, what with the amount of banners and pop ups I can seem to prevent. Add stories peppered with could, should and possibly it’s not worth bothering I could just write my own. So the only real source is our official site? Link to post Share on other sites

I can't work it out because even including Fry & Hall I can only think of 5 that we knew were injured going into the IB, Fry, Hall, Payero, Hernandez & Dijksteel. The Gazette say we definitely have 7 out and it doesn't include Fry & Hall, suggesting there are injuries we haven't been made aware of yet. 4 minutes ago, Neverbefore said: 7 isn't great, but it's also not a freak situation - lots of teams will have far worse at various parts of the season (ourselves included).

The Gazette (the clubs mouthpiece) have reported that we will have 15 senior players this weekend, 3 of whom are goalkeepers. So they're definitely playing it up. They clearly are not including the young players on the fringe of the squad like you are. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
