Boro and WBA

[qpr-buzsaky]

I know it's a long shot, but I actually feel we could get something from both games. Boro were quite poor against Forest and they havent really settled under Strachan and i think we could nick a point or get a smash and grab win. Their main threat will be lita but if we can shut him out then we should have a chance of not conceding too many, forest frustrated him and were really physical so i think that connoly and faurlin should be in midfield but ramage should be dropped for legsofwood (he needs to stay back though) because i really think ramage is a poor footballer. Watched the West brom game today and they were not too good, Dorrans, Brunt and Bednar are their main threats and they didnt look to great today. They were quite good on the break but their left back was getting skinned all day long by haynes and sproule (if only we had routledge!) so if we have a pacy winger we could cause them some problems. IMO their main weakness is at the back because their full backs are attacking and it leaves them vulnerable down the wings. Think that we will have to play cook and buzz on the wings because they are quite attacking on the flanks (i cannot see taarabt putting in a tackle) and i cannot see ramage handling mattock and jerome thomas, and hill handling zuiverloon and brunt. Think that we can get something out of these games if the confidence is high and the players are ready to give 100%. Thankfully we should have warnock (if eghamhoop is right!) for the WBA game so they should be fired up for that.


My team for boro would be:

Ikeme
Legs Gorkks Stewart Hill
Buzsaky Connoly Faurlin Cook
German Simpson

or if we want a more offensive approach approach:

Ikeme
connoly Gorkks Stewart Hill
taarabt buzsaky Faurlin Cook
German Simpson

Cerny can start if fully fit

why the hell would you have ikeme in goal?!

Cerny's injured i think (back problem?)

[Controversy]

If Cerny is fit enough for the bench he should play infront of that clown

wasnt he on the bench saturday?

[qpr-buzsaky]

wasnt he on the bench saturday?

Apparently his back has been playing him up all season? If fit he should start but i think he's injured

[Ginger Ninja]

mind you...an injured cerny is probably better than a fit ikeme anyway...

Fingers crossed that Reading beat west brom in their cup replay (this week?) so we can play them Saturday week, rather than having ANOTHER game rearranged for a Tuesday night.
Although I agree with what you're saying -- West Brom certainly didn't look formidable by any means today and are very beatable.

an injured midget would give me greater confidence that a fit Ikeme

I hope so I got family coming to stay hoping to go to a game

:laughter: , Think we should have signed heaton but oh no we'd rather get Wolves 4th choice keeper. I dont feel comfortable with Ikeme in goal but we have to be careful with Cerny, he is getting on a bit and if we aggravate his back injury he might not be back for ages and we will have to play ikeme in goal for the rest of the season
