YOUR XI VS FULHAM

Thu Jan 05, 2017 5:40 pm

What would your team be on Sunday? I'd go for a 4-4-2 formation with a team like this:

...............Murphy.................

Richards, Connolly (C), Ajayi, John

K Harris, Huws, O'Keefe, Kennedy

..........Healy, Lambert............

Bench:

Wilson, James, Wharton, M Harris, Noone, Gounongbe, Pilkington

I reckon Amos will make a return.

Should play our strongest team, could potentialy get a big game in the next round that could bring in some much needed funds which could potentialy go towards squad strengthening.

I don't see the point in being in it otherwise, I hate what the FA Cup has become, just aswell scrap it if it carrys on the way its going.

He's already said he's going to make changes 4-3-3/4-2-3-1

Murphy (don't see the point of changing he needs more game time neither Amos or Wilson will ever be good enough to be our number 1 anyway)

Richards Connolly Ajeyi John

O'Keefe Huws Wharton

Harris Lambert(c) Noone

Subs, Wilson, James , Gunnerson Immers,Kennedy, Pilks, Zahore

GK: Ben Wilson

LB: Jazz Richards
CB: Sol Bamba
CB: Semi Ajayi
RB: Lee Peltier

LCM: Emyr Huws
CM: Lex Immers
RCM: Aron Gunnarson

LW: Junior Hoilett
ST: Kenneth Zohore
RW: Matty Kennedy

I believe this would be the best Starting 11 that balances a solid spine in Bamba, Gunnarson & Zohore, and then gives players around them a chance to be creative and show what they have. Players like Noone, Connolly, etc etc have had enough chances under Warnock and frankly It would be a waste to throw them in the team, Noone isn't going to do anything different, too inconsistent. I want to give Lex another chance because he hasn't appeared much under Warnock, but we all know how highly we rated him last season getting 5 or so goals for us.

Read somewhere Warnock will stick with Murphy.

Whenever we go for the 'wholesale changes' option we look terrible and get beat. 11 players who haven't played together all season never works no matter how good they are, and it leaves teams looking disjointed and lost. Pick 7-8 of the first team, rest anyone with knocks or who has played every minute recently, like Peltier, Gunnarsson & Hoilett...

Be interesting to see if Lambert plays. He's played in 14 so far, another 6 and allegedly he triggers a 3rd year in his contract. It seems sensible to me play him in this game and if he doesn't it's looking more likely that their not wanting to trigger that clause.

Brian Murphy

Declan John
Matt Connolly
Sol Bamba (more fitness after suspension?)
Jazz Richards

Kadeem Harris
Emyr Huws
Stewie O'keefe
Craig Noone

Freddie Gounongbe
Rickie Lambert

------------------------

Ben Amos
Peter Whittingham
Joe Ralls
Kenneth Zohore
Semi Ajayi
Matthew Kennedy
Lee Peltier

Still a strong side, but enough rotation to give game time & options on the bench.

Lex don't play. For us any more
Gunnerson and Hoilett and peltier needs a break
Zohore needs wrapping in cotton wool as said by warnock
