    Madison's punishment for scoring that goal of the season then putting a chance on a plate for Washington to hoof has been.....zero minutes since!

    A more normal looking team but Maddison should be starting.

    Not convinced about Washington as a lone striker, but he should be more of a threat than Bogle.

    If that’s 4-3-3 then I’m very happy. The back line looks decent and the three makes sense with a holder, a playmaker and a box to box player. JFC will have to shield more than he usually does and that’s likely why Bowyer has left out Maddison, as Albie and Gilbey will offer more running than Maddison naturally would. Two pacy wingers as well, though we need to make sure we don’t ask too much of Washington as a lone striker. Having Chuks, Maddison and Williams able to come on if we need more impetus is a good position to be in and Schwartz can come on if we’re either desperate for a goal or coasting. I’ll feel slightly less positive if it’s a 4-4-2 and Millar is playing flatter out wide but still, decent line up 
    I guess if we need a goal we could potentially remove Miller or Smyth for Aneke (Washington moving out wide), Schwartz then comes on for Morgan meaning we go to a flatter 4-4-2

    Could even bring both Miller and Smyth off with Maddison giving the other width opposite Washington

    Agreed! 
    Would have Maddison starting instead of either Gilbey or JFC

    Different position to JFC. 

    Agree Maddison ahead of Gilbey.

    Just look at that glittering bench, packs more punch than the starting line up:

    Subs: Mayard-Brewer, Matthews, Purrington, Williams, Maddison, Schwartz, Aneke.

    Can't wait until the 65th minute! :smile:

    I'm not a massive fan of JFC, but think his game is suited to this midfield. How Gilby has got in ahead of Maddison or Williams is beyond me though.

    I don't like to be negative about players, but Gilby has been underwhelming since he came back from injury, where as Maddison and Williams have been positively affected games and then have hardly been seen since.

    Was it Ipswich that thrashed them by playing the ball behind them?

    433 is the best system to play in  my opinion.

    Maddison falls short in the front 3, as not very pacy, and wont track back in a midfield 3, so if he comes on, it will be a change of formation, as Bowyer regularly likes to do during matches.

    I am very happy with this team, Gilbey to prove that he can play, Gunslinger to come on and score,

    Should certainly look more mobile with that front three. Worry about our ability to hold up the ball though. Setting up to counter attack?

    Not sure I know what the difference will be... What with Charlton games on pornhub under "pain"

    Gilbey obviously isn't suspended! 
    I was convinced Forster caskey got booked last week so was surprised when it was said gilbey was suspended

    Totally agree with you about Gilbey underwhelming us so far, but this could be his kind of game and team. You can’t win player of the season at all 4 of your previous clubs without having SOMETHING about you. I think when we’re going for the pace we have, Bowyer obviously wants to play someone more defensively solid.

    Think Maddison is very unlucky not to be playing though.

    Gilbey definitely got his fifth booking last week: https://www.soccerbase.com/players/player.sd?player_id=66101

    (Both him and Forster-Caskey did actually)

    It must have been the game before that they had to avoid getting booked in, makes Aneke's against Plymouth even more frustrating!!

    but apparently you are correct, maybe they should have checked the analysts footage

    Ten quid to watch the first eleven. 

    Twenty quid to watch the bench play three a side at half time.

    Whatever the final result that is a defeatist selection. Pathetic.

    I cant believe Bowyer has left our attacking options on the bench. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    No idea how Gilbey is playing, can only assume it's a technicality and the rule relates to Gameweek 19 and not the clubs 19th game.

    In that case why not play Maddison on the right where he can cut in and create space for Gunter to overlap?

    Probably playing due to the fact he wasn't booked on Saturday?

    Had a feeling I was right about the suspension and the cut off, but was giving you all the benefit of the doubt that I was wrong.

    The cut off would normally be a specific date in the season, but it states this season after 19 and then 37 league games.

    Whether you have played that amount or not is irrelevant. Other clubs have and you can’t help postponements throughout a season.

    The cut off was Boxing Day, which was the 19th scheduled league game of the season.

    Gilbey therefore, is not suspended.

    Happy days.

    "I told you Mads, I don't want speculative shots from distance as they waste possession when we're in a good attacking position"
    "But I scored gaffer"
    "I don't care. In that part of the field you need to pass it sideways or backwards. None of this shooting at goal nonsense."
