There is no way you'd drop him over Traore There is, if you know you are not going to be running at defences all night but will need to hold the ball longer.

villalad21 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 I would probably have started Anwar and Barkley on the bench. Barkley ain't matchfit and imo he need to earn his way back into the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penguin Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 If there was a side you could choose not to play after having a COVID outbreak i.e. one which will force to run around constantly and be switched on mentally at all times it's this City side. Strong side from us though and lets hope we are close to 100% because although they've hit form we have the attributes to cause them issues.

BOF Posted January 20, 2021 Moderator Share Posted January 20, 2021 The only other time this season we've had this starting 11 we were 3-0 down at half time and came back in garbage time to lose 4-3 to Southampton. Thankfully Traore has bedded in since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lochheads twin Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 A strong line-up for us tonight and as good as we good could have hoped for after the last couple of weeks. Let's hope they are not too much of the pace and have the stamina to last 95 minutes. There is an element of tonight being a "free hit" as anything we get is a bonus. Fingers crossed & UTV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul514 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 So the first 11 are all playing, alright. Look at the bench though no Trez, Elmo and Guilbert on there.... This says to me Trez is still feeling the effects and Engels on the bench not Hause, same deduction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only that, but it coincides with our season unfolding more and our bad luck evening out. Performance-wise, I think we've been better with Barkley in the team to be honest. We looked unstoppable in some games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 That team is pure sex Watkins is due a goal Grealish is due a goal McGinn is due a goal Douglas is due a goal Barkley is due a goal Just saying.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herman22 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Brave team but pretty much the starting line up I was hoping for. Glad to see Barkley back in the starting 11 but don't expect him to finish the game. We are going to have a go, defending well is paramount.
