Thanks.

 

Completely skipped over that Walker starts over Hilton, this selection says we are wanting to win the Trophy this year.

 

It was the Plymouth fans forum last night and the CEO said Cleverley is not going anywhere.

 

Love your post!
Sorry I was so miserable this morning!

 

I'm a bit confused by the team.

What's the formation and who is playing where?

 

Well my earlier team prediction was miles off. If Halliday isn’t injured think this tells us a lot about his future - let’s see what GA says post game when I expect the question will come from Jamie Raynor.

Pattison injured/sick or dropped?
How does Power, Metcalfe and Leigh fit in to a formation?

GA clearly wants to go after this trophy based on this team - I’ve no issue with this.

 

Bolton fans seem happy with tonight's team line up.
According to their fan's it a very strong side that we will face.

 

Strong enough line up
GA really does fancy this tournament
Defeat and a few knocks and his selection might look a bit rash
Plymouth on Saturday far more important in my eyes, especially as I am the best manager you could get Adam’s is involved

 

Metcalfe was terrible at Bolton playing in the Sarcevic role and was rightly hooked at half time .....

So we start him there again away to Bolton? Strange choice for me unless its Tommy Leigh that we play more advanced.

 

As well as Halliday missing what has happened to Kav?

Another sicknote
Or is he on the naughty step at the moment, after throwing himself to the floor seeking a cheap free kick?

 

Maybe GA has finally worked out that he can't play a deeper role and there's 3 centre forwards all better than him at the club.

 

That’s what they all say? Honestly looks like a rabbit caught in the headlights on the touchline . Similar to Luton’s new boss .

 

Not Cook though.

Too fat.

Or summat.

 

There's only room for at most 3 strikers in the squad and Kavanagh is currently 4th choice. Humphrys is favoured by Alexander, Cook is the plan B if we need to go more direct so it's between Swan and Kavanagh for the last spot

 

He's gone strong so fair play picking Humphrys. Just need a performance from him now.

 

Some peripheral vision would be a start.

 

Anyone else's sky stream a little jumpy/laggy especially with the sound so far?

 

This camera angle being about 10 yards off the half way line is annoying me far more than it should
