Nigel Posted August 6, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted August 6, 2022 I would have bet money it would have been Watkins today, however thinking about it Gerrard has probably gone for the player scoring goals. In which case that goal against Fulham could be pretty important for mr ings! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was kind of expecting Dougie instead of JJ, but can't say that it's really a surprise; it could have gone either way. I am pleasantly surprised that it's Ings instead of Watkins. this is where I am. Would've preferred to see Sanson on the bench too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really don't understand what he has to do to get in the Matchday squad Our squad is too big now IMO. Hause, Nakamba, Sanson, KKH all not on the bench, am I missing anyone else? Half our bench can start for most Prem teams easily. The bench is mostly on par with the starting 11 as well, we need to upgrade the 11 and lose a bit of quality on the squad. We don't have the games to require this much depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villatillidie95 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Some of the calls Gerrard makes at times are baffling tbf, we need to keep people on side rather than alienate them, one injury and we will be needing players like sanson and nakamba....i think going hot and cold on them and/or playing them and then freezing them out is a bit shit tbh. until we have signed better and have cover we need to man manage positively. seeing it with mings aswell a bit, i have a feeling the unity of the team could have a few factions and splits a few months from now if there are clear favourites and not everyone is given a crack of the whip 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely only need 1 CB but maybe Chambers/Young are versatile enough to play midfield if needed Which make Sanson and Nakamba's exclusions appear even more puzzling 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst they're on a promoted high, the gulf in quality is huge did you watch the Fulham v Liverpool game? Thats the reason, today could be difficult....Fulham went after them, despite inferior quality. I have said it a million times on here......quality with application, is questionable, it leaves us frustrated. If we don't compete, the quality will look flat.

ender4 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 (edited) Hause, Nakamba, Sanson, Davis, Traore, El Ghazi, Irogbunam, Guilbert all can’t make the 9 bench places. Can almost field a whole team with players who can’t get into our 20 person matchday squad! Edited August 6, 2022 by ender4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaVilla Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 i find it really weird how we have a sub slot for every position in the back 4 (Young, Chambers, Mings & Augustinsson), but no Timmy, Sanson, KKH etc. I dont get it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
