Neverbefore 10,695 Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Kinda interesting. if nothing else I'm happy that there's a change to that midfield 3, any 3 of them could have dropped out even if available. Link to post Share on other sites
Snowblind 1,711 Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 We desperately need an LCB to balance that defence out... 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie-H 1,322 Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 (edited) I don't have the stats and I admit it is purely from my own eyes but under Woodgate I thought Paddy was phenomenal in between boxes he just couldn't quite put that final touch or pass together to get the goals and assists his general play deserved. It'll be really interesting watching him today, Fry at LCB is a worry but hopefully his left foot's not called into action too much. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
BoroSmoggie 2,678 Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 I’m someone who doesn’t rate McNair in midfield, and someone who hates Fry at LCB lol so I’m not that optimistic right now at getting 3 points. Fingers crossed they prove me wrong Link to post Share on other sites
LBP 3,012 Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Of course Billy Sharp's back for this Won or lost in midfield today this I reckon, need to not let Sander Berge dictate the game 1 Link to post Share on other sites
TeaCider24 12,402 Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Hopefully it's not Fry on the left, he struggles there. Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn't be surprised to see Lenihan at RCB, Fry at CB and Paddy at LCB with Dijksteel in midfield. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Billy bloody Sharp though... Guaranteed to concede at least one now. 😑 1 Link to post Share on other sites
