St1pe Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Given the clamour on here for Hall most of last season the fact so many want him dropped in favour of Kelly after one dodgy performance seems odd. I personally think we should stick with him because he’s clearly got something. I know Kelly has played left back often but I had enough of shoving cbs to full back positions last season. Howe will nailed on do this mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 I'm pretty sure we won't drop Hall, there's no reason to drop him so quickly. If it was away to a top club then maybe we would go all-defensive back four. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearergol Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 18 hours ago, Scoot said: You don't drop a player bases on 1 bad performance. Who are these people ffs? To be honest, he made a few mistakes but he also did some good stuff with the ball, not to mention the goal line clearance. But aye, let's just drop him. And Gordon. He was shite. 3 weeks training with the kids should sort them both. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howe will nailed on do this mind. It's not so much dropping Hall as going horses for courses. Didn't they say last year some if the plan was to play Joelinton wide left in some away games, same goes here, if it were Bournemouth at home I'd be much more likely to go with Hall, but away Kelly may not be a bad idea. I think we'll go Hall due to the CB situation and having a fresh CB or LB to bring on from the bench (even to go 3 at the back if needs be, which I'll bet has crossed his mind to even start that way) will come into the thinking.

Magpie Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 (edited) Think these will still have Semenyo up top without a recognised striker. Unal is still injured and Evanilson has had about 10 minutes in pre season. Edited August 22 by Magpie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibierski Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 Not optimistic for this game. Always seem iffy when we play on south coast more often than not, and Iraola will have the players with movement and better quality than Southampton. score draw will be a good result IMO. Same team, with Kelly in for Schar. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 Can see this being quite an open game. Both sides are quite direct on the ball and like to press off it. If we're as sloppy on the ball as we were last week and Bournemouth continue as they did v Forest, it could be quite high scoring. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turnbull2000 Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 A draw would be a good result here, but think we could be for quite a shock with losing by a couple of goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to guess this one. I suspect we will struggle, partly as we haven't started great and no Schar. Also because we haven't typically struggled away at Bournemouth. I'd be happy with a draw.

Gallowgate Toon Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 Score draw feels about right. We've got some very decent options off the bench though, if the lineup is as expected. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howe will nailed on do this mind. It's just people still on his case because Howe didn't rate him for most of last season. Looks potentially transformative for our attack, and it seems Howe agrees - his involvement in our set piece tactics alone suggests to me he'll be a fixture going forward. But who knows maybe Howe will double back to Kelly, just seems unlikely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
