It's your theoretical line-up, Nicko, you can do what you likeNicko58 wrote:Is there not a way for us to play all three?Dave Sutton's barnet wrote:Dropping Alf or Zach?LeverEnd wrote:Having Craig Davies back would make a huge difference.
But there's at least a couple of ways we could play three up top. We could play three at the back, which hasn't always ended in glory; or three in midfield, presumably dropping the winger who got three assists on Saturday.
Me, I'd be looking to strengthen the midfield, because Danns is creaking a little. I like Bannan a lot, from what I've seen, but he's hardly Faye or even Pratley in terms of workrate. Getting Vela back in the middle solves that but causes a problem at right-back: Janko, who might not have the aptitude and attitude to succeed there, or McNaughton, who hasn't played a minute since Lennon's third game (in October) and might be a bit old and slow for the manager's liking? As Bruce Rioja (and others) pointed out, Lennon's rotating right-backs against Watford were largely an attempt to deal with their greased pig of a winger, but it does seem to be a problem position, one only partly solved by Vela's guest spell.
Back to the original point, I wouldn't drop either Alf or Zach, and I wouldn't play three up top (or two up top with Zach behind), because I'd worry that they may be interested observers watching us lose the midfield battle through lack of numbers.

I'm with him, and when the Sheriff's men post a team sheet on the church door, I'll shoot an arrow at it....so there...

Stands to reason that since McKay has gone from being a great championship manager to not so good , that Freedman will be going in the opposite direction. I'll be delighted with a draw.Hoboh wrote:If we don't murder them with that tw*t in charge I'll start a Lennon out thread!

At this morning's press conference, NL said Cravies, Heskey and Mills are due to train today, with a view to being in the squad for Saturday. Mavies "pencilled in" for a return next month.

That's going to be one of those pencils with an eraser on the end isn't it?TonyDomingos wrote:At this morning's press conference, NL said Cravies, Heskey and Mills are due to train today, with a view to being in the squad for Saturday. Mavies "pencilled in" for a return next month.
Mavies working year runs as follows
Jan - Mar/Apr - recover from injury
Apr - nearly last game of season - remind fans why I'm the Bolton Messi
Nearly last game of season - get recurring injury
May - July - Holiday
July to November - recover from injury
November - Dec - give the fans a Christmas treat before getting injured just in time for Chrimbo.

What's the low down on Dougie?
Whatever it is, apparently Neil Lennon has asked the Whites players to give him the lowdown before the Forest game. Could be a tough call.

It'll be great watching the signings from your thread as we win 3-0!
Can't wait. (no pressure)

The hand-written team sheet on Twitter appears to have Tim Ream down as captain. Interesting.
Still no Craig Davies...

Subs: Amos, Moxey, Heskey, Gudjohnsen, Wheater, Slavchev, Janko
Looks sensible if he's drafted in Twardzik to strengthen the midfield (at the expense of Janko, whose pace could make a difference later)
As an aside, the first XI has three Lennon signings, three Freedmen and three Coylers, with two youth products (the bench is 5/7ths Lennonian)
