Fresh from our defensive debacle yet well deserved comeback in mid-week, today we find ourselves gone west ...... at soggy Bristol Rovers, heavy pitch and all.
Rovers boss Paul Tisdale: "It could be an open and exciting game." They can't play Oztumer, who we've lent them., under the terms of the loan agreement.
Lee Bowyer: “The team picks itself. We’re limited with the players we have got at the moment, through suspension, through injuries".
Two 17 year olds, Charlie Barker and Aaron Henry travel to make up the numbers.
I won't bother listing all the injured and missing in action, but nearly everyone else will be in the matchday squad.

The pre-match build up starts at 2.25 ...... Scott Minto returns with the legendary "Steve Brown, he won't let you down".
COME ON YOU ADDICKS!

I just hope, after the excitement and attacking quality we saw second half on Tuesday, people have prepared themselves mentally for a starting front two of Bogle and Washington today...5

Would love to see Schwartz start today if we cant have both him and AnekeExiled_Addick said:I just hope, after the excitement and attacking quality we saw second half on Tuesday, people have prepared themselves mentally for a starting front two of Bogle and Washington today...

I have no issues with that as long as they are being fed the ball from midfield. Washington can and has scored goals, Bogle's game is holding the ball up and linking play, if we combine that with midfielders with attacking intent then we'll be fine, the problem is that hasn't really happened so farExiled_Addick said:I just hope, after the excitement and attacking quality we saw second half on Tuesday, people have prepared themselves mentally for starting front two of Bogle and Washington today...2 -
I reckon it will be Washington, flanked by Millar and MaatsenForeverAddickted said:

I hope not. That really didn’t work last week. In that system the central man has to be able to hold the ball up which Washington is not really built for. Better Bogle than Washington in that formation. Omar may not be great but square pegs in square holes etc...wmcf123 said:

In a way Id be tempted to start Bogle... With Schwartz in now there is even more incentive for him to at least put in the effort as there is even less chance of playing if he fecks up
Only trouble is I wonder if his confidence is just shot to pieces0 -
I don’t completely disagree with that, Washington has been mostly decent if unspectacular and Bogle has good games as well as the bad ones. Just saying it’s unlikely we’ll be picking up where we left off on Tuesday so hopefully this thread doesn’t go into a spiral of group self loathing when we’re not 3-0 up after 20 minutes.sam3110 said:

If you start Bogle today, with Schwartz AND Aneke on the bench you are telling him he is coming off at half time come what may.ForeverAddickted said:In a way Id be tempted to start Bogle...

It might be the "right thing to do" today but previous choices are starting to impact the here and now.1 -
At risk of getting lol’d I think Bogle would do well up top with Schwartz.ForeverAddickted said:In a way Id be tempted to start Bogle... With Schwartz in now there is even more incentive for him to at least put in the effort as there is even less chance of playing if he fecks up

I wonder what Bowyer's surprise 'square peg in a round hole' will be today?
Bogle in attacking midfield, playing the '10' role.
Actually, I remember when Curbs converted Jason Euell to that role with good effect - and goals!

That should certainly do the job4

With the current players at our disposal that's as strong as it gets for me. Happy to see Aneke start again, think it's the right thing to do - Schwartz coming on for him later will be a good swap.4

Only other lineup I can see us starting with is Purrington for Maatsen as he's looked jaded in the past couple of games.
From the match preview thread a couple of days ago0 -
45 minutes for Aneke
Followed by
45 minutes for the Dutch master.2 -
Like Chuks, Bogle isn't a natural "number 9" despite what they physically look like.Oggy Red said:I wonder what Bowyer's surprise 'square peg in a round hole' will be today?

The big difference is Chuks is a very good League 1 number 9, despite being an even better 10.0 -
Happy with the team with what we have available.1

Great team! Very happy with that!
Let's turn this form around boys0 -
The team that played the second half other than Schwartz. No complaints with that.2

So same team as last week except the two players who struggled subbed out and a necessary replacement for a suspension. Can’t really argue with that. Probably 442 so good to see some consistency based on the second half of the previous game. Hopefully Albie can show some quality from the start. He and JFC need to have big games in midfield to protect the defensive pairing4
