xLiaaamx Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Who plays left back for the reserves ? Is it Gillesphey ? Is he that bad it's worth switching the whole team round after the last few performances ? Edit...scrub that, didn't realise he was out on loan. You could stick Sterry there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 A usually reliable ITK reckons Colback is crocked and won't play tomorrow. If both Dummett and Colback are out, who the fuck will play left back? Lascelles? Or 3-5-2 again? Anita played there before and did a decent job tbf. EDIT: he's injured as well though isn't he?

sbnufc Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Mbemba will go to LB. Won't start Aarons this soon after injury Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 It is quite funny how all four of the players who could conceivably play left back are all injured. Dummett, Haidara, Colback and Anita. None of them are particularly good either. It's not like we've tragically lost Leighton Baines for a month. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why not, if there's one thing Colo does do well it's cover for the full back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could stick Sterry there This is the most likely (and logical) if both Dummett and Mbabu aren't fit to start. No way should we be moving Mbemba out of the middle.

timeEd32 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 At least we know the midfield will be Shelvey and Saivet. Hopefully Saivet looks a bit more settled this time out. Mitro will score at least one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Didn't Lascelles come on and play left back against Man City (poor lad) and look absolutely terrible there when we got botted earlier this season? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belfast Boy Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Has the squad been named for this yet? Is Thauvin in it? I wouldn't be for disrubting the Colo/Mbemba partnership so need someone to come in at left back. I guess the only options are a youngster or Gouffran Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 No left backs, combined with their 2-man strikeforce, has me leaning towards 3 at the back. Doing that to a winning team is silly but we genuinely have no left backs. Elliot - Mbemba, Colo, Lascelles - Janmaat, Sissoko, Shelvey, Gouffran - Wijnaldum - Mitrovic, Perez Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belfast Boy Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 We’ve only got four fit defenders, the majority of them centre-backs. Mbabu, Dummett and Colback are all out. Emmanuel Rivière will be on the bench (at Watford). There will be no Ivan Toney and no Siem de Jong. - Steve McClaren Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Bailey Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 This game is huge. I feel it could be quite pivotal for us. Have we actually turned a corner or is it all just fluff? I expect a loss. but am praying for more of the attitude of the last 2 games. Would give Stiflers left arm for a win. Wasn't sure if I cared all that much anymore but let's be honest once your'e in. your'e in.... Is Toney injured...?? christ our luck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliot - Mbemba, Colo, Lascelles - Janmaat, Sissoko, Shelvey, Gouffran - Wijnaldum - Mitrovic, Perez McClaren has ruled this out - said we don't have four fit defenders let alone five. I'd be shocked if it's not the same formation with Saivet and Shelvey in the middle and hoping for the best with someone barely qualified forced into LB.
