Signing two midfielders suggests we'll be playing 3-5-2 from now on, with Brittain and Styles wide, and looking for goals from midfield. So, I'll be going tomorrow. First game since West Brom. It's the hope that kills you. How many points do we need? If we beat Cardiff we'll be 5 points from Reading. Aaah!
Played 3 in midfield Saturday Wolfe made a difference, looked more solid especially second half hope we stick with it.
Given both new players are attacking midfielders, with one also playing on the wing, I can see us going back to 4-2-3-1, unless of them plays just in behind Morris in a 3-5-2.
I'm hoping the coaching staff have looked at the players and how they've played and decided on the formation. Wolfe must be ahead of Palmer and Benson in their thinking. Maybe we'll see a completely new midfield tomorrow.
We don't have one decent full back, but the wing backs are ok. Brittain, Bassi, Gomes, Quina, Styles in midfield. Morris and Iseka up front. If they are all fit. Wolfe and Marsh on bench.
I agree. I think the 2 players signed with play in the three behind the striker. It'll be interesting to see where Styles plays in this formation - does he continue in the three or will he move back into one of the two holding players especially when Morris is fit.
We need to go for it tomorrow as a win with new lads in the team would make a big difference. Doesn't really matter who plays in cup team on Saturday.
I'll be really surprised if either of the new signings start tomorrow considering their lack of game time this season and the fact they will only get one training session with the group. Think Huddersfield is a good opportunity to chuck em in. If Quina isn't cup-tied? Is that still a thing even?
I can’t see Count Bassi playing anywhere for a while unless they somehow manage to fast track his visa
Wolfe has to start tomorrow, surely? He was excellent on Saturday. Well, better than anything else we’ve had in midfield this season anyway.
Not sure why people keeping saying "Styles in midfield". He's shown this season he is hopeless in that central role. He excelled at left wing back last season, so why not put him back there. Brittain on the other side works, when he is fit. Williams on the bench from now on for me. Now, who can guess when we will see the two new boys starting a game? Any time this side of April?
looking forward to the bbs reaction. "we are delighted to welcome amine and domingos to the squad. we are just working on paperwork and are hopeful that both will be available for our game on Saturday against huddersfield"
