What Team would you put out tonight??
« on: July 30, 2007, 03:48:36 PM »
I'd like to think we'll start these two friendlies with our strongest side playing, I'd like us to line up like this (assuming Peyton is fit)

Coburn

Lane
Munroe
Tinson
Peyton

Potts
Lawton
Sedgemore
Senior

Little
O'neil


With all other squad members and trialists on the bench

However, should we have a left back on trial tonight then I would like see them.

Thoughts???

Of the midfielders you have listed above it seems a very attack minded lineup. I've not seen Sedgemore play but is he a Hussin/Bushell type player who will break play down and give us muscle in the middle of the park? If so that lineup might work, but if not I think we'll be horribly exposed.

Other than that I'm all for having Potts and Senior as wide players as this was an area in which we were sadly lacking last season.

I'd try Ballers at left full back...

It's the side I'd play, I'd rather see us line up like this and then if we get a lead put Val and Gary Scott on yo protect it. Last season, it was the other way around and at times you wondered if we were ever going to create anything. I know that if we were as gung ho as we were against Rotherham ultimately we'd get torn apart but just a little bit more go in us would be great.

To be fair that makes a lot of sense and I can't really disagree with you, especially at home where we must look to put teams under pressure right from the start.

I would definitely play Potts on the wing. If he is fully fit he could be one of the best wingers in the division. A sort of George Armstrong type.

nah personally i's pick myself, although i am right footed(but a good left to be fair) and yes, i used to be a left back who got put in net because our old keeper went to ireland 2 live and i suppose being 13 is a drawback but when did age count? ;D
