underboyleheating Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 and Hollis to net the deciding penalty in Russia to seal an 11-10 penalties win.... Easy!!!!!!! Nah, Faddy will chip the keeper to send us through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malky79 Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 Team I'd like to see start remains something like this Neilson Ramsden Hutchison McManus Hammell Lawson Lasley Vigurs McFadden Sutton Angol Experience back line, midfield 3 to hopefully make sure we don't get over run in there. Sutton as focal point to the attack, McFadden hopefully along with Vigurs adding some creativity and goal threat with Angol pace hopefully utilised going forward and coming back.

Frazzie Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 I'd settle for that, but I'd probably put Vigurs where you have ZFA and bring in Carswell to give us a more solid centre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazzyB Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 3-1 to us. Sutton with an early goal, they'll equalise just before half time, Faddy will make it 2-1 around 60 mins and a Vigurs screamer late on will seal the win! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could do and certainly Angol done pretty well coming off the bench, less pressure on him as well arguably. I know we got a few new players, but still a core of the old from last season and it a system I imagine we could settle into quite comfortably still despite the changes. If we go 5 at the back and with wingbacks I picture myself watching the game through my fingers as we get go grips with the formation.

numpty Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 This is there 1st European game, they are seeded because of the good results other Russian sides have had in recent years That was true of Levante too, but they beat us fairly handily...

LenintheParakeet Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 Can any of our Russian friends let us know if it is going to be on Russian TV? Da, Comrade, it is being shown live in Russia. Usual places - use Sopcast for best results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inthebasement Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 Certainly far from ideal that we would go three at the back in Europe without getting used to it first, but from comments by McCall I think that is what we will do. We look a pretty poor 4-4-2 at the moment with pretty much all of our wingers and strikers lacking the pace to break effectively. My line up: Gunnar Ramsden (WB); Hutch; Mick; Hammell; ZFA (WB) Las; Lawson; Vigurs Faddy; Anier Faddy can drift to link up with midfeild. Ramsden to play it safe, I can't see him spending too much time pinning back their full back. As other have said above, wouldn't mind seeing Carswell, who I like a lot, probably in place of Lawson at this point as Las has the experience. Lawson's passing range would be missed however if we are playing wingbacks. We used to rely on Law to find Humphry sitting on the wing from distance - Las will rarely try a long flighted pass. I also don't think it is out the question that Carwell could do a job at right wing back if required. Personally think Faddy and Sutton are too slow to play up front together, we need more pace and pressing. McHugh needs more game time before starting a game like this, and he's a good impact sub. Sorry to say I can't see Sutton doing much for us at all this season, odd signing for me though I hope I am wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tassinari Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 I said on Friday at the Forest game, that I would shite in my hand and eat it, if Hollis started tomorrow. Hope that I'm not regretting that on Thursday night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superward Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 It's a difficult one to pick a formation that's for sure! Can't decide between the below. In both formations it's a toss up between Sutton and McHugh for me. Sutton gives us presence but McHugh as banged in a few goals.... (5-3-2) Nielsen Ramsden-Hutch-Mick-Hammell-ZFA Lawson-Lasley-Vigurs Faddy-Sutton or (4-2-3-1) Nielsen Ramsden-Hutch-Mick-Hammell Lawson-Lasley Faddy-Vigurs-ZFA Sutton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LenintheParakeet Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 Are both legs being shown in Russia? Most Euro games are shown as the number of time zones and channels make this possible. (Every RPL, 1st Division, & Reserve League game is shown too.) On exception I can think of in recent years was Dundee Utd v Dynamo which was due to a dispute about what what be provided by the Scottish media, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LenintheParakeet Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 No idea. Probably one of the dedicated Sports channels. I'm working for Russia Today but there's every chance I'll be doing pitch-side interviews, asking in English (if it's a 'Well guy,) then translating to Russian while he twiddles his thumbs. This is great news if you haven't heard about it: Ozbiliz away And highlights from their last game. Like Scotsport of old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juan Kerse Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 It's a difficult one to pick a formation that's for sure! Can't decide between the below. In both formations it's a toss up between Sutton and McHugh for me. Sutton gives us presence but McHugh as banged in a few goals.... (5-3-2) Nielsen Ramsden-Hutch-Mick-Hammell-ZFA Lawson-Lasley-Vigurs Faddy-Sutton or (4-2-3-1) Nielsen Ramsden-Hutch-Mick-Hammell Lawson-Lasley Faddy-Vigurs-ZFA Sutton To be honest the only difference between them is when the players are standing still at kick off and goal kicks. Either way ZFA will cover left back when defending and get forward on attack. Faddy will float between midfield and attacj as well in both and Vigurs is the most forward of the the 3 Mids leaving Las and Lawson sitting - in both formations. In saying that I hope McCall lines up 4-2-3-1 as the players will feel that bit more confident - when lining up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 Purely out of interest, what would people say to a 4-3-2-1 of: GK: Neilsen RB: Ramsden CB: Hutchinson CB: McManus LB: Hammell MC: Lasley MC: Lawson MC: Carswell AMC: Vigurs AMC: McFadden ST: Sutton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
