Subs
El Abd
Murray
Brez
Smith
Baz

Bridcutt

I'm calling the above changes as we've had a lot of games recently. Hopefully we'll be 2-0 up on 60 mins and take off Bennett for Smith/Baz and Painter/Calderon for El Abd

I'm not a fan of Ankergren and think he should have done better for the goal on saturday. I know he kept 3 clean sheets in a row, and that's a fantastic achievement, but he's not as good as Brezovan and I'd rather have our best goalkeeper in goal. And I'd rather have our best centre backs together aswell, so I'd play Greer instead of El-Abd (who has been fantastic, but should be a backup rather than the key man, in my opinion). I would also start Kishishev instead of Bridcutt, but keep Murray and Barnes together up front.

However, whatever team Poyet puts out on tuesday night, I'll be more than happy with. His opinion is more important than mine :clap2:

Agree with Kishishev as Bridcutt and Dicker together didn't work yesterday.

Don't think we should change the defence until we lose either.

I'd rather start with Murray and Barnes and then give Sandaza 30 mins if we can.

I'd also be keen to see Baz as haven't really seen much of him yet

I would love to know how Ankergren could have done better with the goal yesterday?
Sure he does not come for the ball enough for my liking but then that seems to be the trend with keepers these days. I suppose the ball moves more in the air, then it ever used to. Thought he had a shaky start to season but is getting better with every game, it would be madness to change a settled keeper and back four ffs, this is real life not FM.

I've only seen it live, and on the FLS last night, so I might be being a bit harsh on the bloke, and I'll hold my hands up to that if when I see it again, I change my mind. But it seemed to me like a weak effort at trying to save what wasn't exactly the hardest struck shot in the world. And it's gone into his near post. It just didn't look like good goalkeeping, again, to me. But I'll hold my hands up and say I was wrong if I think I am, after seeing it a few more times. It would be good to see it from a different angle aswell, but that won't happen unfortunately.

Same as started yesterday, Brentford are less physical than Oldham so Bridcutt should be able to shine again.

Agreed 100% providing there arnt any fitness issues we dont know about. Why was Sparrow not involved at all yesterday?.I know he has not hit the heights of his debut and his temprement seems a bit suspect but was surprised he was not involved at all, was he ill?
No way Murray should be dropped, he won everything in the air yesterday and his link up play has been sublime, so far this season, one of the top three players so far imho.

Time for Greer's return, kish changed the game when he came on saturday, 442 against a team that is srtuggling, barnes is undropable at the mo, sandaza scored so should also play.

Perfectly executed finish in the bottom corner, far post, at least that what it looked like from block c. Most of us have only seen it live and on the fls.

i was at the game and seeing live i thought it was a great finish, and seeing it again on fls i still think it was a great finish. good goal, no keeper would of saved it

What a feeble excuse to drop Murray.

Unchanged, except Kish in for Bridcutt.

Sandaza to come on for either murray or barnes after 60mins, depending on which of those two is playng better on tuesday, if they're equal I'd say barnes off to see Sandaza and murray as a pair. If we're in search of a goal after 60mins it'll be good to change things up, if we're not it'll be good to give Sandaza a more game time. I don't think he's ready for a start yet.

Bridcutt may get a run out, depending on how the game goes, how Kish/midfield performs.

I still prefer Brez as a keeper, but think Casper has to stay in while this run is on.

I expect the same 11 to start as did yesterday. There is no way Murray or El-abd will be dropped. Sandaza certainly should not start for he seemed to contribute little yesterday (other than effort) before the goal. He looks a squad player to me.

When we were last away LuaLua was on the bench so that midfield could be bolstered. This brought a 2:0 win and the same could happen again (the formation.. but hopefully the result as well !!!)

I thought yesterday was very promising. We were very determined and everybody was giving 100 per cent. We now have quality choices for every position. Bring on Brentford.

I wouldn't call it dropping him. Gus will need to rotate throughout the season. I see Tuesday as a great time to rotate

I disagree as I don't think Murray will necessarily benefit from being rested. He's not Kishishev.

Anyway my original point was more to highlight the hitman's poor attempt at hiding the fact that he hates Murray.

f*** off, and get your head out of Murray's arse. Striker's are here to score goals, both Sandaza and Barnes did this yesterday, so should both play. You are just a typical Murray arse licker.
