Team versus Charlton Athletic

[finsbury_bee]

I wonder if we'll go a little more defensive in midfield and play two holding. Team for the opening fixture (pure speculation) could be something like:

------------------ Trotta* ------------------

Judge --------- Forshaw ------- McAleny*

---------- Douglas ----- Tebar ------------

Bidwell - Craig - Tarkowski - McCormack

----------------- Button ---------------------

* Or similar type signings

Bench: Lee, Yannaris, Dean, Dallas, Reeves, Grigg, Norris

Thought would start this very early. Will be interesting to see how the team evolves.

Can't wait.

 

[kevalutonbee]

Used to seeing the team as

Keeper

Back 4

Midfield

Forwards

so nearly had a heart attack as I thought you were suggesting Trotta in goal


No place anywhere for Saunders?

 

[hanworthbee]

We can't keep playing mac at rb or will get murdered down our right

 

[Alan D]

Interesting, but in all honesty a little premature I would have thought. Before I even consider thinking about it, I would hope we have a few more signings, because if not it's going to be a long hard season.

 

[steve.bees89]

We don't even know what our squad will look like yet

 

[finsbury_bee]

Thought it would be interesting to see how the line up may change over the next few weeks, what formation we'll play, and where we need to strengthen, etc...

 

[Tom the bee]

lol


??

 

[tobymugdo]

Smith

Dobson Ingimarsson Powell Anderson


Ro**ands Evans Sidwell Hunt

Owusu Burgess

 

[whyteleafebee76]

Well I'd wager that that is a stronger line up than Doncaster and Yeovil fielded at any point last season so I wouldn't be totally unhappy with that but the squad will evolve and strengthen between now and the first game of the season.

eh ?

 

[ruislip bee]

What??

 

[jlove]

What??

I'd agree with hanworthbee; he's OK against a team that plays narrow but against any half-decent left-sided player McCormack gets turned inside out and leaves us horribly exposed. I think, with a pre-season behind him, Nico's mobility and technical play will make him our default right back.

 

[glorybee]

I can only comment on what was said on the Grapevine last season, so don't shoot me to pieces please.
Is Button or for that matter Lee up to Championship standard?

Yes, both are.

 

[Holysmit]

Considering we haven't signed half of our team, this thread seems a bit odd!

 

[Travel Tavern Bee]

Is it April fools day ?

Some of the posts on here over the last few days are verging on insane.don't think I can take much more .......

 

[Beefletch]

Ask me again this time next month !

Lee is a good solid back up to have at that level. Button I'm still unsure on but I think most Bees fans will be happy for him to start the season as our No.1.

half ? Dream on mate

 

[blunstone]

and probably beyond as MW looks to see how players adapt to life in the higher division.

don't rule out dallas and reeves by the way, chaps!

 

[bees66]

change the blooming tune..

 

[GP200]

.............far far too early.............

 

[nanny58]

time to go back 5 3 2 something you youth no nought about, we want loads of goals ??

 

[Isleworth_Bee]

Dont think we will bw playing that formation too often, 1) CD leaving 2) its too narrow in defence, and you cant leave your LB/RB exposed at this level

 

[ruislip bee]

change the blooming tune..

Not sure about Reeve but I think Dallas will be starting and in for a run in the side.

 

[belvederebee]

What ****** started this thread?

roflroflroflrofl

 

[bexleybee]

At this stage, I will only stick my neck out and say, 1 GK and 10 outfield players. Nailed on

In fairness, I can understand the excitement. With no football on telly to distract, these sorts of threads are inevitable

 

[bees66]

Not sure about Reeve but I think Dallas will be starting and in for a run in the side.

from the bench, yes..

Having had the mis-fortune to read some of your utter dross over the years including such gems as "crap players should not be allowed to play Sunday football " , this is your best offering yet. Not quite sure if you watched the games last season but when Rosler made the transition putting him to right back , we had more clean sheets than ever . Combine that with the amount of assists he produced and I think it says enough. He will be more than able to hold his own in the Championship.

[magicbees]

Button

TBA - Tarkowski - Craig - Bidwell

McCormack/Douglas - Tebar

TBA - Forshaw - Judge

TBA

Subs: Lee, Dean, McCormack/Douglas, Saunders, Dallas, TBA, TBA

 

[Bill Benn]

Although more than able at full back mid field is his best position and will be a key player there this season IMHO

 

[sacbfc]

Button
McCormack- Tarkowski- Craig- Bidwell
Tebar- Douglas- Forshaw
Judge- TBA (Trotta)- Dallas

Subs Lee, O'Connor, Reeves, Dean, Grigg, Diagouraga, Yennaris

 

[Brain-dead Bee]

Forget this short term approach. What about the team to play Wigan in May 2015?
