nufc123 Posted September 21, 2025 Share Posted September 21, 2025 Elanga played around 60 mins on Thursday. Surely he can go again? Hes one of our fittest players, find it a bit strange. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pissed down the whole time and we got battered but somehow won. Howe would have been their manager and Schteve was ours, similar today would do . Me and @Greg (neither of us entirely sober) accidentally stumbled in and interrupted McClarens pre-match teamtalk at the Highcliffe Marriott that morning when we were trying to find where breakfast was. In hindsight maybe that should have been done that more often when he was in charge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobbydazzla Posted September 21, 2025 Share Posted September 21, 2025 If that’s the line up then Howe has clearly got confused and he thinks we’re playing Bradford today Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordiesteve710 Posted September 21, 2025 Share Posted September 21, 2025 Normally have very low expectations from this one. For some reason I feel confident today. Which is very unusual for me in general. Lets see how it plays out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoot Posted September 21, 2025 Share Posted September 21, 2025 People call for rotation then when we do it its always the same "is such and such Injured" or "doesn't look good for player x if player y is replacing him today" Its hilarious. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is rotation and there is poor rotation. If that team is correct, we are set up to lose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted September 21, 2025 Share Posted September 21, 2025 Just now, Scoot said: Not really. I think it is. I am in the camp of thinking we need to rotate and don’t have an issue with changes and rotation. We need to do it more often. I just don’t like the 3 at the back unless it’s against one of the big boys. Always feels like it’s a cop out. As we have strength in depth there and it is a way to shoehorn Botman in. As he is too good to be sat on the bench for us. Miley isn’t mobile enough in the middle IMO Game sort of passes him by. For all that he has potential. Willock isn’t really the player he was 2 years ago and Elanga has been used quite sparingly. I wonder if Howe just really sees him as an option on the right, only? As I would have liked him on the left today. As always, in Howe we trust. But it’s fine for people to question ropey looking lineups. Everyone did before Leeds and that was our worst performance of the season by a long way. I hope that team is wrong for a similar reason. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andycap Posted September 21, 2025 Share Posted September 21, 2025 (edited) Normally when we play these they have the majority of possession so the 5-2-3 could work on the counter. Hall hasn't played for a while and now he's gonna get thrusted in against these. 😂 Edited September 21, 2025 by andycap Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
