Agree totally but Virgo will be captain! Elphicks time will come for that role!!

 

[Spider]

Whing Tunnicliffe Virgo Wright

Wright Dicker Thornhill Cox

Murray Forster

Agree with this team except that I really don't know what to choose between our two keepers. Guess I would go with Smith. I haven't been to any friendlies (bad fan) so it's a case of players pedigree or reports on here.

I'm interested to know if people leaving out Forster are doing so because they are assuming he will be injured or because they don't think he deserves a place ahead of Murray/Dickinson?

Can't we have a starting 9? We might win then.

 

[Ninja Elephant]

I'm interested to know if people leaving out Forster are doing so because they are assuming he will be injured or because they don't think he deserves a place ahead of Murray/Dickinson?

I left him out for fitness reasons, but I would 100% have him in the team ahead of Dickinson. That opinion is very changeable though, considering I'm yet to see him play!

 

[BensGrandad]

I cannot understand people putting Tunnicliffe in over either Elphick or Virgo as to me he seems a good prospect for the future but other than his extrordinarly long throw he is not as good yet as either of those.

 

[Rookie]

Not seen enough of the new boys to pick, no idea whether Smith or Tunniciffe should be playing

 

[xenophon]

xenophon - Spiller was told he wasn't getting a contract

I thought he was doing alright in pre-season?

elphic is first name on the teamsheet and i would play tunnicliffe alongside him. kuipers is still first choice in goal - and rightly so.

assume it'll be thornhill and dicker first choice in central mid, cox and wright on the wings - although i think cox could be superb playing just behind the forwards.

dickinson plus forster up front, davies replacing forster if he's not fit.

whing at right back so that just leaves left back and i assume having spent 150k on wright slade feels he's good enough to left there
