It’s a difficult one today because they seem quite physical, but the last thing we need is Davis getting sent off second half. Bringing on Field would be too defensive. Oztumer is too attacking when you have Williams as well. It would have to be Smith but we are yet to really see what he is like and doesn’t look the most physical player.

I'm sorry but I disagree - not sure what VP comms were watching. It was late and he didn't get any of the ball. Free kick and yellow card all day long IMO.

Saw 4-2-3-1 suggested on Twitter, Doughty left, Green right and Williams behind Taylor. Wouldn’t mind seeing that, with Davis on a yellow he might be the one to bring off. Would give Taylor more support and Doughty’s pace would mean we still have an outlet down that side.
Do we really need three defensive midfielders in the same 11?
No. And I said before the game that the line up was too defensive. I dont know how managers get coaching badges......perhaps they give them out in party bags.
Yeah what a shit manager that Bowyer is.....
I think old golfie is getting "football managers" mixed up with "financial advisors"
I'll tell you one thing for nothing. It's a bloody lot harder to become financial advisor than it is a football manager. Cant tell you the amount of exams I've taken over the past 30 years.......and then there is 40 hours of CPD every year.
Bit disappointed that none of you young guys who understand new technology haven't done wonders with your TV/computer/stream etc and put the goal up yet :-)
This is presumably the first and last time we play Davis and Pratley in the same midfield
Leuth, you make some silly comments sometimes, but this takes the biscuit.
How many chances do you give your love child Naby? But you've given this midfield combo just 30 minutes before writing it off.
To be fair to Leuth, I think we all, or mostly, saw Davis as a like-for-like with Pratley, not a partner.
I certainly did. Never imagined them playing in the same team. I'd put Davis in Pratley's DM spot and sub Pratley off for a player at CM who can keep the ball.
Stoke have played through or around our midfield too easily, especially as we have 3 defensive midfielders. Fortunately Stoke had little end product apart from the goal, where Taylor lost his man. If we keep the same lineup second half we will stay under pressure. Doughty for Davis I would say, asap. We nee somebody who can carry the ball.

Bringing on Field would be a like-for-like but with a player who hasn't been booked and can pass it around nicely. Bringing on Hemed would allow us to put more pressure on their defence and allow Taylor a partner. Bringing on Sarr would mean going 5-3-2 which worked last time. Bringing on Doughty would give us a pacy outlet. Bringing on Oztumer...would make less sense, ditto Amos, but there are five ways we could sub off Davis and have it make sense

At the match.
I’m fairly sure you will change your mind if you see it again. I think it was a yellow because it was the 2nd time he clattered someone.

It looked like a decent tackle until you see a slow mo replay. He was a split second late and crunched into their man's ankle.

It might be harder now, but not so long back more or less anyone could do it - pre RDR.
Was well known for being full of cowboys - like the **** that sold me my shite endowment mortgage and got his nice fee and ongoing trail commission for 10 years .....

However they've played all the football and we played with the wind first half.....
