Different formations/personnel for Bristol City and Palarse

[wallington seagull]

Personally would go for 4-1-3-1-1 against City

Kush

Bruno
Greer
Dunk
Painter

Bridcutt

Buckley
Crofts
Orlandi

Dobbie

CMS.

Then for Saturday play an extra holding midfielder and bring back El Abd and Bridge if both fit.

wallington seagull i would go with that team but i would swap dobbie for hoskins for 2mow night

 

[Commander]

We absolutely battered Bolton. I'd go with exactly the same system and formation we played against them. Although I would probably drop Barnes, he looks like he needs a rest.

 

[brightonmark1234]

Commander i would drop barnes for hoskins

 

[Commander]

Yeah I think I would as well mate.

 

[BensGrandad]

Same team Tuesday but be prepared to bring on Hoskins earlier if we are not performing and also Dobbie and go for the 3 points from the kick off. Worry about Palace at 10.30 pm Tuesday.

Nearly right but Dobbie for Barnes... that dinked goal he scored was clinical and class...and he takes a mean penalty

Wrong answer, plan for Palace now & play whatever leaves all our best players at 100% for Saturday. Tomorrow is irrelevant

That's just plain silly

What load of tosh 3 points tomorrow and a draw at least on Saturday is far better than a defeat tomorrow and a win on Saturday. 3 points are 3 points doesn't matter who against. Take each game as it comes and prepare for it accordingly.

 

[Quinney]

Lets play our strongest team tomorrow night, make sure of the points and then worry about Palace. Players will have enough time to recover. Hopefully we won't need Barnes defensive qualities as much tomorrow so would like to see Dobbie get a start.

When as long as have a chance of being Top 6 that's a daft statement. I'd happy lose both games to Palace if it meant playing beautiful football for the rest of the season and going up.

 

[OvingdeanSeagull]

I'd go 4-2-3-1. Assuming El-Abd and Bridge are fit...

I would make 2 slight alterations to that team to start Hammond instead of Croft and CMS instead of Hioskins but the difference between the 2 choices is very minimal.

Couldn't choose between Hammond or Crofts! I think we should let Hoskins have a go, see what he can do especially as CMS hasn't really performed last couple of games. Hoskins looked quite lively when he came on on Saturday
