Smogzilla 9,442 7k Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 I forgot that there's an international break after Saturday. Probably explains why they're less concerned about playing the 1st teamers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can see the goals for all the matches go in on Sky Sports News though. yeah but don't have Sky Sports News in Belgium 😞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan1234 1,257 3.2k Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Not sure what the point in Gilbert is if he can't get a cup game over Matt bloody Crooks in the 10 slot when he's been poor every time he's played there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I think 3-5-2 is necessarily the answer but it would be a relief to know Carrick is rethinking our current set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RealSlimSladeyy 964 1.4k Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 (edited) Interesting if he is changing shape but I thought it was 4231 Glover McNair Fry Lenihan Engel Barlaser Hackney Forss Crooks Jones Latte (excuse my half arsed formatting) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denzel Zanzibar 8,139 15.5k Posted August 29, 2023 Author Share Posted August 29, 2023 Interesting lineup, looks like 4-3-3. Payero's probably off at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimsbyBoro 2,397 3k Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Normal formation I think with McNair at right back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redcar Rioja 9,035 8.8k Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Think it has to be a 433 with Crooks on the Right and Hackney Left, failing that Crooks central with Barlaser Right and Hackney Left. Also think it will be Jones Left and Forss on the Right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilsoncgp 10,162 19.9k Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 I don't see the point in playing Gilbert from the start if the manager doesn't think that will be the best choice for the team to win this game. And we should be trying to win it. Here's one for you all though - I don't even think Crooks has been that bad. Well, not that much worse than everyone else anyway. He's had good moments and bad moments, just like everyone else. We know what he is, we know he has limitations but he's also been pretty good at contributing more than people seem to expect him to be capable of. I wouldn't be shocked to see him on the scoresheet tonight. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borodane 7,946 27.6k Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 It’s just our normal setup with crooks in the middle and jones left. Hope the produce some chances. My guess is 2-2 and win on pens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
