Do you know something the rest of us don't
Good team selection though.

Lee is a few weeks off full fitness I believe.

Cant see Taylor being anywhere near match fit. Assuming Barron fit:

Bonham

Saville

Fillo
Grigg
Donaldson

Subs: O'Brien,Taylor, Saunders, Farid, Trotta, O'Connor, Teixeira

O'Brien
Logan Dean Taylor Craig
Fillo Forshaw McCormack Teixeira
Donaldson Grigg

Don't like 4-3-3.
 

Team vs Tranmere

Keeper
Logan - Dean - Taylor - Craig
McCormack
Forshaw Saville
Donaldson Teixeira
Grigg or Trotta

Has to be 4-5-1 without the ball and hopefully 4-3-3 when we have it...
 

Team vs Tranmere

Bonham( would love him to get a great reception from the travelling bees fans and go on to keep a clean sheet and play a key role in an away victory)I suppose I can dream.

Logan Dean Taylor Craig

McCormack Forshaw Saville

Grigg
Clayton Trotta
 

Team vs Tranmere

I'd love to see against Tranmere:

Lee

Logan Dean Taylor Craig

McCormack Douglas Forshaw

Fillo Donaldson Teixeira

As I don't think he will play 442. Not sure Douglas will be fit though so Saville for Douglas if not.

On PAPER that team above is about as good as this league gets in my opinion.
 

Team vs Tranmere

3-5-2

------------------------Lee------------------------------
------------Dean-----Taylor-----Craig----------------
--Logan--Forshaw--McCormack--Saville--Texeira--
------------------Donaldson--Farid-------------------

Subs Bonham, Venta, O'Connor, Reeves, Saunders, Fillo, Trotta,

or if 4-3-3 then Texeira pushed forward and Logan pushed back.

Not convinced Saville is an away game up north player. We paid the price for being lightweight on sat and don't believe GS has played particularly well away from home.

Maybe one for Dave. And hopefully the Dave of the Swindon play off 2nd leg.

I'd go:

New keeper

Logan Taylor Dean Craig

Dave AMac

Donaldson Forshaw Teixeira

Trotta

Subs - keeper, sav, Griggs, Farid, Fillo, Saunders, KOC

How's Sav's doing for you lot then? Saw some clips of him and he does seem light weight. He does go in for tackles well but as a midfielder you need to be able to shield the ball and have presence esp when going into the box etc. the guy has Crouch's build without the height ( or robot dance... his missus ain't too shabby though)

Saville has excelled in some games but disappeared a bit in others. Tends to happen to young midfielders. He's a keen runner and can pass the ball and should continue to improve through the season

I prefer Ghost in my house.

The first white artist to record for Motown incidentally.

I don't understand why you think Saville is lightweight in comparison to Toumani. When has Dave put in a touch tackling display? The answer is never. In fact Dave pulls out off more tackles then anyone else.

I didn't mention tackling.

Sav is a boy who will be good in time, but shouldn't necessarily be an automatic starter.

Dave has experience. Dave is a big lad and we are a small team in general although the arrival of Taylor helps a lot. We were soft at Bradford and not much better at Gillingham. GS has tended to go missing away from home and in my opinion is behind Forshaw and McCormack in the pecking order, so battles it out with Dave for a start.

At home I'd have Sav everyday. Just think we need to be selective on the road. We've got a big squad so use it.

No you didn't mention tackling but you did state we were lightweight and it could be a game for Dave. I don't understand where the perception has come from that Dave is a physical player. Yes he's tall, but he's stick thin and I think Saville is more likely to get stuck in than Dave.

Yep pretty much the team i would go for providing everyone is fit - possibly different goalkeeper depending if Uwe thinks we need more experience
 

Team vs Tranmere

With the amount of injuries they have to key players - I'd like to think we have a good chance of winning. Can I hope?
