Rovers v Charlton

[Bigdoggsteel]

                         Walton

         Nyambe  Lenihan  Mulgrew  

Bennett                                         Bell

                  Johnson Travis

    Rothwell                            Dack

                      Gallagher 

I reckon the personnel for the first game will look something like this. Not sure if I have the formation correct though

I think if Mulgrew plays in a 3 then he has to be central. The wide centre halves can get exposed and left 1 on 1 a bit in that system.

He doesnt have the legs for that spot for me anymore.

We will definitely be playing 4231. A formation like you propose totally sidelines Dack.

I'm sticking with :

-----------------------Walton

Nyambe----Lenihan----Williams----Hart?

----------------Travis--------Johnson

-------Downing-----Dack------Rothwell

------------------------Graham

Subs : Fisher, Mulgrew, Bennett, Evans, Armstrong, Gallagher, Brereton

Its a shame that Buckley, Davenport, Chapman all will struggle to get a place on the bench.

Williams is out for 6 weeks. 

Probably close enough to what we will go with apart from that. I'm not against 4-2-3-1, I just don't think we will use it. 

It's a shame if they don't, but it does show the strength in depth we have in midfield and attack.

Think we'll likely start with that formation, but with Tosin (or another incoming) in for Williams, Bell in for Hart, and I'm not confident at all about who starts on the right. Personally I'd like Rothwell on one side and Armstrong on the other, but I think Downing or Bennett are probably more likely.

Problem is the central CB needs to be able to put his head on the ball regularly, which Mowbray admitted last season none of our current defenders can or will do. 

[BlackburnEnd75]

I'd go with

                              Walton

Nyambe         Lenihan       Tosin          Bell

                      Travis         Johnson

Armstrong               Dack                Rothwell

                             Graham

Subs: Leutwiler, Mulgrew, Bennett, Downing, Buckley or JRC, Gallagher, Brereton

 

I think Mowbray will go:

                                 Walton

Bennett            Lenihan         Mulgrew        Bell

Armstrong         Travis           Evans         Downing

                                   Dack

                                 Graham

Subs: Leutwiler, Nyambe, Hart, Johnson, Smallwood, Gallagher, Brereton

Thanks. Not sure if liking your post is an insult to Williams...??

Whatever happened to the choice of "like, thanks or lol"?

That's a relegation back 4 right there.

Never!! Surely none of our posters ever get upset.?

[bazza]

I hope TM picks what the fans would call a sensible starting 11. But, like a lot on here, I have my reservations.

[bboy]

alright was looking at the back of the board on our new signing

https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2019/july/walton-will-be-a-huge-asset-for-us/

 

looks like;

 

       GK

RB  CB CB

       DMC  DMC  LWB

       CAM   CAM

RF-(slightly more defensive), LF

 

 

looks crazy but would make sence to Mowbray saying we won't play anyone in the centre

I keep trying to pick "my" team and every time there is one position that stands out as unfillable.  Left Back!  Two choices, Bell or Hart. Not happy with either.

Not quite. It was being used to wind folk up. Trolling=against the rules.

I'd start Armstrong or Chapman instead of Downing

[charltonfan]

Charlton fan here, probably can c that from my name

Cant the game as im sadly on holiday u can probably expect to see a lineup of:

                   Ben Amos

Dijksteel  Sarr  Lockyer  Purrington

                  (new player)

Jake forster caskey       williams

                  aneke

      taylor              (new player)

dont expect any one to know any of them unless youve watched sunderland till i die!

after a busy transfer window we have focused our activity on signing the best players from the league below,so they will either be shite or wanting to prove themseleves, knowing charlton i know which one it will be?

you will probs beat us as we will struggle next season but we may just carry our form through from last year

may the best team win

Chuffed to bits the seasons coming not so thrilled about our start, first month.  Charlton are.gonna be right up for it and we will still be looking for a centre half.  Lordy lordy don't fancy reading this board for the first month I don't think.
