v Bristol City (h) - 3/9/22

[Herbie6590]

Brizzle…the Bradley Orr Derby 😳

[Sweaty Gussets]

They've had a good start. Tough game. 

I hope we stuff them. Pearson is a bellend. 

 

[SBlue]

Ideal team for me , assuming no Diaz.

         

                       Kaminski

Wharton.  Wharton   S. Wharton   Wharton

          Wharton Wharton Wharton

     Wharton        Dack         Wharton

 

[J*B]

I’ll go… 

Carter Ayala Hyam Pickering

Travis Morton Wharton 

Dack Hirst Szmodics 

Assuming BBD goes today. 

[Upside Down]

I'm optimistic after the win at Blackpool. 

Rovers to win 6-1

Going off past performances we won’t be seeing Ayala again this year never mind this Saturday.

Start with Wharton and morton we should be dominating them. Rovers 3 City 0

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

As usual I’ll wait and see who goes where today before making my mind up. All I know is games in this division are only easy once you’ve done the hard work that makes them easy.

The first goal seems to be more important to us than any other team. Score first and we’re a force to be reckoned with, go behind and it’s another story altogether.

Think we will probably switch to 343 for this one to match up with Bristol City. In terms of who plays it's conceivable signings from today could go straight in (especially if they are of the quality of Dembele!)

[Guest]

Last night showed there's a real value in keeping Travis away from central spaces. As difficult as that is, I'd go with:

Kaminski

Travis Ayala Hyam Pickering

Morton Wharton

Hedges Dack Brereton Díaz

Gallagher

Gally won't be fit will he?

Id stick with the same back 4 as last night Ayala more than likely won't be fit 

I'd put Hirst in instead of Dolan from last night's 11

Gally’s supposed to be out for 6 weeks, as is Brittain. Will Ayala be back by then is the burning question.

[Guest]

Didn't realise Gallagher was out for so long. 

Kaminski

Travis Ayala Hyam Pickering

Morton Wharton

Hedges Dack Brereton Díaz

Hirst

No Hedges? 

[roversfan99]

As it stands I would go:

Kaminski

Carter Hyam Mola Pickering

Travis A Wharton

Hedges Dack Brereton

Hirst

Subs: Pears, Phillips, Buckley, Morton, Markanday, Szmodics, Dolan

That is assuming that the squad is unchanged transfer wise and that none of Wharton, Ayala, Brittain and Gallagher are back.

I think Travis needs to be back in midfield as soon as possible ideally.

Christ my bad. Yes, Szmodics out. 

[joey_big_nose]

Seems like we have done our business.... maybe Dembele will turn up later but not holding my breath. 

Bristol City are going to come to Ewood in a 343, sit back, be aggressive physically and hit us on the break. Sort of setup that regularly beats us and we have struggled to have a counter argument to.

JDT wants to be tactically flexible, we've got some players coming back to fitness, and he's seen us get absolutely mulched by Reading and Sheff Utd who play a similar way to Bristol City. So I think we will go 343 ourselves on Saturday and match up. 

I want to see a really good performance where we can show we can adapt and nullify teams who know how to hurt us.

Team for me : 

                                  Kaminski

                   Carter       Hyam   S Wharton

           Travis     Morton     A  Wharton    Pickering

                                     Dack

                      Hedges              Brereton

Subs : Pears, Phillips, Edun, Buckley, Hirst, Dolan, Vale

[roversfan99]

The 4-2-3-1 suits us and worked last night, I wouldn't change that.

Off subject but I’m staying in the brockhall village and wondered if the players trained every day? And what time? See if I can see any of them. 

the players training faculties are 5 mins walk from here

They arrive at 10 and leave between 1 and 2 most days.

It’s a tough life, no wonder they find two games a week hard.

[chaddyrovers]

My team based that I don't think Brittain, Ayala and Gallagher won't be fit for the game

                Kaminski

Travis  Carter  Hyam  Pickering

         Morton  A.Wharton

Hedges     Dack       BBD

                 Hirst

Subs:- Pears, Edun, Buckley, Phillips, Vale, Dolan, Markanday

[Andy]

Gutted I'm missing this one - bought tickets to take the kids to a wrestling thing in Cardiff on Sat before the fixtures came out 🤦‍♂️

However, optimistic after the Blackpool performance and a win would keep us within a couple of points from the top spot.

I'd go with:

Kaminski

Travis Carter Hyam Pickering

Wharton Morton

Hedges Dack BBD

Hirst
