I agree. This is just about our strongest team. Maybe Smith instead of Noone away from home. Malky doesn't appear to be prepared to select Noone in away fixtures.

Noone seems to be a bit lightweight and is pushed off the ball away from home.

If he starts Saturday I can see him grabbing 2 goals.

What a confidence boost that would be for that lad. :ayatollah:

Right now:

Marshall

Connelly - Turner - Hudson - Taylor

Noone - Gunnarsson - Kim Bo - Bellamy

Smith - Campbell

I seriously feel Whitts is due a rest and that Kim Bo would thrive in there. This would be
a very attacking side so Gunnarsson would be instructed to dig in just in front of that back
four and curb his attacking instincts.

Smith will be superb up there with Campbell. He's a bit more mobile than Helguson and
a bit cleverer with the ball. GOT to play 4-4-2 with Frazier. Leaving him up top on his
own would be just like what Martin O Neill was doing, leaving him exposed or out wide.

Bench:- Lewis, Nugent, Mutch, KIM, Smith, Helguson, Mason.

Bellamy on the wing is just dire.
Turner in the development squad to try keep the ball on the floor and stop playing rubbish. :malky:

Parrish, Nugent, Mutch, Gestede, Mason, Helguson, Conway


can't beat a good old 3-1-3-1-2.

Gunnar to sit infront of the back 3.
Kimbo to do what Whitts is doing now. Foot on the ball, control things and distribute.
Noone and Smith to add width
Whitts doing what he does best imo, playing an "attacking" role (MM take note) to feed both Bellers and Frazier.
Free role for Bellers and Frazier to switcharoo.

When Maynard is fit, then Bellers will take Smith's place. Smith to replace Conway on the bench.
