Starting 11 for the first game

Sun Jul 28, 2024 11:31 pm

Starting to shape up to be a decent first team we could have in the first game against Sunderland:

Horvath
Ng Chambers Goutas Collins
Siopis Robertson (if he signs)
New winger Ramsey Willock
Kanga



As well as signing a new right winger, I’d want to see us sign a LB as well. Collins is probably the weak link in that team.

Alnwick in Goals for me, he impressed me pre season screaming at the defenders to get out the box or close down etc.

I was shocked he got dropped last season

Sorry but I disagree, Horvath a much better goalkeeper than Alnwick.

Hovarth lot more reassured on the ball which is good for defenders.... anwick is dodgy when on the ball .... plus think better goalie.

That’s my biggest issue with Alnwick, you can’t be a goalkeeper these days unless you have good distribution.

Horvath is very good at that. He knows when to release the ball early and he knows when to slow the game down.

Horvath is definitely better at distributing the ball but I think Alnwick is a better goalkeeper.

Collins was SO GOOD when he signed for us I’d love to see him start the season strong. Gonna sound silly now but he could be one of the best LBs in the league if he could stay fit for the season. I live in hope.

I'm happy we have two good keepers.

It shouldn't be about this or that. Let's be thankful we have two keeps who are very good for this level.

Agree - Always good to start from goal and move forward - We still new faces further up :bluebird:
