But opening game of the season I’d like to come flying out the box and think BB higher energy for this would be better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're lacking good defenders but look good going forward. So pile in with the defenders and drop the forwards. No team should ever have Elmo, Taylor and Hutton in it. Ever. I rate Elmo but agree about the others. Steer, Taylor, Hutton and Elphick on the same defence is terrifying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely we can't be letting Hutton that close to our own penalty box, that's suicide. Gotta be at full back surely. I'm hoping for 4 at the back with Elmo as a winger. Yep, I’m hoping it’s four at the back for that reason (with Elmo as the right winger, Adomah left wing), but as @alreadyexists says, the wing back formation has been frequently used in pre season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVTuco Posted August 6, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted August 6, 2018 I freaking hate the 5-3-2. 0-0 if we're lucky. We look terrible at the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post rodders0223 Posted August 6, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 6, 2018 Current interview now. What do you need to do differently "We have to be a bit younger. Too many games. Should have changed it more often. The age of squad was wrong side of 30. We need more legs and energy" Starting line up - 7 out of 10 players are or will hit the 30 mark this year.

TheAuthority Posted August 6, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted August 6, 2018 (edited) Unbelievably the ESPN+ app is working on this flight - well I just tested it and the little league baseball game from Ohio came through crystal clear! Fingers crossed I can get a good pic from Hull! Edited August 6, 2018 by TheAuthority Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eholm Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Shocking team selection. As per bloody normal, Bruce goes safety first. Green on the bench!! WTF!! 6 defensively minded players, if it is 352 why the **** does he have to play a strict holding midfielder and only 1 up front!!?? He simply is the completely wrong person to take us forward. He needs to go ASAP. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
