boroie 484 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 I actually see us winning this. I expect Hugill and Braithwaite to start. I wonder if the line up might be something like the below with Saville and Besic having been away. Randolph Friend Ayala Flint Shotton Clayton Howson Downing Braithwaite Hugill I like the confidence, but I'd prefer to start with 11 players! Link to post Share on other sites

mendieta420 1,006 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Why would Assombalonga be dropped? He's played as big a role as anyone in the run of form we've had. Dael Fry called him underrated and underappreciated the other day. Hugill has done nothing to deserve a start yet. I think we'll start with the same line-up as vs Leeds.

edinboro 815 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 I don’t think Besic will start as been away for 2 weeks. And the comments on Hugill from Pulis make me think he will play. Maybe Britt for Braithwaite. Link to post Share on other sites
mj south 613 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 I think the lads who have been away on international duties may have to settle for a place on the bench as Pulis would of had 2 weeks with the other lads for this game where as Braithwaite, Besic and co have probably had 2 days to prepare. Randolf Flint Ayala Friend Shotton McQueen Clayton Howson Downing Hugill Assombalonga A 352 formation like this should get a win Link to post Share on other sites

SouthernSmoggie 4,242 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Dissapointed to see Downing in the attacking midfield role to be honest... Braithwaite offers so much more. Link to post Share on other sites
Neverbefore 10,938 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Downing instead of braithwaite. Made sense against leeds, incredibly negative here, much like everything we do. Sigh. Here's hoping for a 1-0 win. Link to post Share on other sites
BillyWoofs_shinpad 1,884 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 That’s quite a bench. Link to post Share on other sites
boroie 484 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Don't see the point in that lineup, why not start strong. You only allow teams to grow in to the game when you start with a defensive mindset. Surprised to see Besic start yet no Braith. Link to post Share on other sites
Brunners 7,982 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 he LOVES Downing. he said he wants more downings, no-one should be surprised that he survived. Link to post Share on other sites

Neverbefore 10,938 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 he LOVES Downing. he said he wants more downings, no-one should be surprised that he survived. True, but playing him in that role makes the entire team, from front to back, totally devoid of creativity or unpredictably. It's really poor for a team aiming for promotion Link to post Share on other sites
