I’d like to see 1-2 of Mallan, Victor or Brown given a chance today. With new players arriving next week these lads should be motivated to show they can be relied on before incoming players. Id still like a strong team out to progress but it’s always interesting seeing how others perform too.
Like to see more of Jacob Brown. Think he's got the ability to make it in this league and be a regular for us.
I’d like to see Mallan start but I’d still go with Thiam up front. He has looked sharp in recent weeks and I feel that he just needs that goal from open play before the floodgates open.
Thiam isn’t going to be prolific as he’s never in the box. 1 goal in 4 at the very best He’s young though and can develop that’s the key.
I thought we’d see a slightly rotated side but it looks not far off our strongest side possible. Let’s have a repeat of earlier in the season. And last season. You reds.
Aside from maybe Yiadom at left back and the Bradshaw/Thiam debate I agree that it’s probably our best XI, at least on paper.
Yeah those are the positions I was thinking. The Thiam/Bradshaw debate is an interesting one because I think Bradshaw’s goalscoring ability is better but Mamadou looks like he could do something spectacular, out of the blue. I’m not too fussed about the FA cup and therefore, wouldn’t have minded us rotating the side but winning games builds confidence so I can understand the strong team.
