Real defensive worries

[Kinky Gerbil]

he has not looked like scoring in past 3 games, he does not make the runs a striker would make.
he would have been up for the corner last night anyway

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

He's top scorer, on a roll and confidence is sky high: Virgo must stay up front. No-one else really looks like scoring do they? When was the last time Leon scored from open play? April.


My team for Saturday.


Kuipers

Oatway, Butters, Hinshelwood, Harding


Currie, Carpenter, Nicholas, Jarrett


Virgo Knight


Subs: May, McPhee, Hart, Hammond, Mayo

Virgo has to stay upfront the team are on a roll they are playing as a group changing things at the moment would be madness

By scoring four goals you mean??!!??

One while he was a defender, one from a set-piece he would have been up for anyway - his perfomances have not been up to much in the last four games, and Knight plays a lot better alongside McPhee. I haven't seen Molango, so I don't know how he works with him.

knight likes playing alongside mcphee

But somehow he's scoring isn't he? McGhee rarely changes a winning team and with Butters back, I'd be surprised if Virgo doesn't start up front on Saturday.

What are you baseing Knight and McPhee working well together against? They played a few games last season, but McGhee spent the second half of last season bringing in various replacements for McPhee.

I cannot knock his commitment, but I do feel that the level he is now playing is a step too far.

Virgo I would leave up there, as he is scoring, looking confident, giving defenders nightmares and working his socks off. I got the impression last night that Helder did not know how to deal with Virgo.

Also you do not change a winning side (if you can help it).
