    Should we give him a game tonight?

    Worth having a look at him IMO. No disrespect to Dagnall, but I'd have liked to see him alongside COG at some point on Saturday. Couldn't have done any less than Dagnall or Scotland did. He looked pretty quick the bit of him we saw against Bordeaux.

    Prefer Rose if shaken off injury.

    He looked quick and appeared to have a decent touch against Bordeaux so yeah I reckon we should give him a run tonight alongside COG to see how he goes.

    Did looked frightened to head the ball mind so that might be his undoing if 'Long ball' Kennedy plays. For the record before I'm accused of being negative or player bashing, I rate Kennedy as a defender but he does far too often aim it a bit direct for my liking.

    I don't get to see to many games a season, but from what I have seen - I agree.

    He does this because its what Flicker ask's him to do. Flicker see's him as playing the 'quarterback' role. I think it works when hes in the back 3 but not as a left back.

    As a 'quarterback' he should be able to find a man rather than just humping it long though. I'd say by quarter back Flicker means the ability to find a man both short and long the majority of the time.

    I'd be tempted to leave big Chris on the bench for this one. Let young Cofie start alongside Daggers or Scotland. I think Rose is a couple of weeks off, but read that Digby might be ready tonight. I've got a good feeling about Cofie, think he's going to be a good un. That's based on never seeing him play, by the way. :D

    I agree. I think he normally does a good job, on Saturday however we were completely outclassed and Dawson and Perkins didnt show for the ball whatsoever. The only way out was a hopeful 'hoof' up to the front two, I think this is why a lot of people thought Flicker had resorted to the long ball when in actual fact we just didnt have any other options. Think it will be back to the quick, direct football we're used to tonight.

    These cup games are ideal to give the lad a chance, and maybe experiment with the line ups a little..

    SawCofiev play last season when he was on loan at **** u and he was every average. A work in progress I suspect rter than a player ready for the deep end of the Championship. Of what we have Rose has to get some game time when fit.

    Much rather see Cofie than Rose, Rose us still far too lightweight for me. Should be sent out on loan.

    This game is made for John Cofie, his name is written all over it.
