Hemed Injured - BBC

[rocker959]

All will be well . WBA will be well beaten this Saturday . They will be torn apart .

 

[Insel affe]

Agreed. But some are saying start Tilley up front!

yes and some folk are stupid

Was surprised and disappointed that CH didn't "pull a Ferguson" and invent an injury so he could avoid international duty in the first place.

Maybe this "injury" is exactly that?

 

[1066familyman]

Bugger! Now we're stuffed.

Now

You say that as if we weren't before.

 

[LamieRobertson]

Could you argue that they would run rings around immobile lumps, and encourage cards?

I was thinking of David and Goliath ..but maybe not just nicking the ball through there legs but he could follow
Defending set pieces could be interesting

See, this goes to why I think we had a very average window indeed. In purely numerical terms, counting out and out strikers, we now have fewer than we finished last season with. We haven't actually replaced Akpom.

What we do have though is options. If Hemed is injured then we could bring in Tilley, we could play Izquierdo there, Brown can play there at a push but may still be injured, even Murphy has experience there. But none of this is ideal. People have taken the lack of striker moan to be a diss of Hemed or Murray but the issue for me was always that we had insufficient cover, and that's why I said throughout the window we needed to bring 2 in.

I'm with you totally on this, and it's not as if we have anyone from the Development Squad ready to take on the mantle of Prem striker either. It was ESSENTIAL we replaced Akpom, it was DESIRABLE that we upgraded Hemed.

 

[Gabbafella]

Izqueirdo up front with Pröpper sat just behind him, it's the way forward. Pröpper used his space in a really smart way the other night for Holland, we need to experiment more going forward, what have we actually got to lose?

Ryan
Duffy Uwe Dunk
Schelotto Suttner

Stephens Propper

Knockaert March Izquierdo



Just go for itttttt

 

[Lower West Stander]

5,000 word diatribe from Barber about how well equipped the club is even though we have no fit strikers?

 

[Driver8]

That line up would actually terrorise their defence and is the only sensible option.

Do it CH, you know it makes sense.

It wouldn’t. They would all get hoofed into the air by WBAs giant defenders.

 

[chaileyjem]

Isn't James Tilley more of a Baldock, 2nd striker player. He's not an out and out striker. Not a lead the line player like Hemed or Murray. He's been playing behind Connolly in the u23s this season.
Wouldn't those asking him to step up to the Premier League on very limited experience , also be playing him out of position.

 

[Bold Seagull]

And Hemed is on how much a week? I really couldn't give a toss if he's on the pitch or sat in hospital. He doesn't need my pity the squad is much more important than his legs/groin/whatever

Exactly. Why would anyone be happy for any of our squad to be injured and unavailable!? Bizarre.

Last time I watched Tilley play he was on the right wing

Very clearly set out my reasoning in my first post on the thread.

Penalties

one mans doom and gloom is another mans opportunity

funny how people look at things differently

Yep Tilley is a winger or at least that's where he plays most. Connolly is nowhere near ready - he was bouncing off Barnet defenders so I dread to think what a Pulis team would do to him. I do actually wonder if Connolly will make it despite his obvious skill and determination - he is very short

 

[greyseagull]

Just out for coffee with my Dad. "I mean, what's going to happen if Hemed gets a knock?" he says. I open NSC approx 90secs later. "Hemed's injured, Dad."

You couldn't make it up.

And we have Hemed to put those penalties away

Or perhaps not

 

[dazzer6666]

Correct. Especially Tilley.

For me, against a WBA team that lack pace.. presuming no Hemed or Murray available.

We'd get hammered of course, but it might be fun for five minutes.

This. Don't think we would get hammered, we're solid enough at the back. Seriously quick and flairy up front. Go for it, especially at home.
