Villatillidie95 Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Perhaps Wesley has got a move in the pipeline and Smith brought him on for the final few minutes as a type of farewell appearance. IIRC he gave some fans near the tunnel his match shirt when leaving the pitch. Shame that we never got to see him improve, he was certainly getting better prior to the injury. Or perhaps i'm overthinking it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't agree, back 4 a good enough to start a Prem game. The attacking three of El Ghazi JPB and Chukwuemeka also looks good, Nakamba and Hourihan should do fine in midfield too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StewieGriffin Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Amazed Wesley isnt playing. Presumably picked up an injury in training? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferguson1 Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Treat them with respect and I expect us to win by 4 or 5 goals by the end. It’s hardly a patched up side and some need to impress the gaffer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAZZAM Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Anwar better not just shoot every chance he gets and instead actually try link up with Carney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted August 24, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted August 24, 2021 Interesting lineup. I'm assuming Sanson just isn't being risked. Wes could be anything - move in the balance, last minute injury, or Smith has plans for him beyond what we expect. Surprised AEG plays, the rest of as expected really.

AEG not going to get much game time this season if Bailey / Traore / Buendia stay fit. So makes sense to start him here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically treating it like a pre season game. Wasted opportunity. Meh, still excited to see some of the youngsters. Like how all but 1 of the starting line up are first team players? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blandy Posted August 24, 2021 Moderator Share Posted August 24, 2021 Barrow is not that far from me as the crow flies and it’s a lovely evening up here. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enda Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Gregg Evans says Wesley not injured, club hoping to shift him out on loan. Pinch of salt needed when Evans says something, but looks like Wes is out out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strog Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 (edited) Not quite the line up I expected as I thought a few more first teamers would be involved. But it’ll be good to see the youth. Maybe Wesley is off or being held back in case he loses it. Sansom must be way off fitness.. Edited August 24, 2021 by Strog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 5 hours ago, useless said: Between injuries to our strikers and others having gone out on loan, and presuming that Ings won't be involved because we can't really afford to risk him, I wouldn't be surprised to see Caleb Chukwuemeka or Cameron Archer involved, maybe both. Archer has started well for the U23s scoring two very well taken goals in two, and has a couple of assists as well. Well done me, I was right, good chance for Archer to impress. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
