Looks good to me

 

[Freddo]

I think you may have that bang on.

Baz, Dicker & Holroyd will all come on at some point in second half.

 

[jharris]

looks spot on, the only other possibility is Cook on the bench maybe instead of Hart, but I think you have nailed it !

 

[matthew]

We should be able to get a draw with that team.

 

[Perkino]

Take out Navarro and put in Dicker and I'd be a happy man

Why upset a perfectly balanced midefield trio?!

 

[keaton]

That midfield looked pretty good on Saturday

Why upset a perfectly balanced midefield trio?!

Agreed, actually. I'm a big fan of Dicker but it looks like Kishishev and Navarro are first choice for those positions, so stick with that for now. Dicker is an excellent choice of cover.

 

[Southwick_Seagull]

Can't see that side leaking too many. Can't see where the goals are gonna come from though. 0-0 written all over it.

 

[Box of Frogs]

Hasn't Gus already said the team will be the same that started against Aberdeen, except El Abd instead of Greer?!?!

If so, pointless thread!

Yup, agreed, and disagreed - funnily enough. Definitely no need to start Dicker, as the current midfield trio seem to have worked well in pre-season, and to me looked very good against Aberdeen. But what I love about having Dicker on the bench is that when we require his service in the second half he slots in so perfectly, as he'd already played in the midfield trio for most of last season. So there's no 'upset' in that sense.

 

[Marc1901]

Matt Sparrow should score a few from midfield this season.

The starting XI look good but have fears over the subs as there is nothing on there worthy of Div 1 other than Dicker.

 

[R. Slicker]

-------------- Poke---------------

Calderon - El Abd - Elphick - Painter

Bennet - Sparrow - Kishishev - Smith

----------Barnes - Holroyd----------

Subs.-everyone else.

You know it makes sense.

Just wait until Baz and Batty make their sub appearances in the 2nd half.

I know this sounds weird but I do like the idea of Barnes and Holroyd up front together
