would like to try Goss in place of Luongo.

What you all think ?

[Pinkie]

Think its abit risky putting goss in straight from the start loftus, maybe on as a sub if luongos off form, but is goss a grafter as have no idea as cant have passengers in midfield away from home, id go for the same team as against reading or newcastle personally, we`ve looked good away from home recently, need to keep it solid first half!

[1973 ranger]

Straightforward system with players un the right positions then go for throat as they are a team in free fall so why let it be us who helps them out?

Smithies
Bidwell hall lynch furlong
Goss manning mackie/ravel
Smith washington pavel

One of those 451 on defence and 433 on attack things, would like to see goss get a start coz we badly need someone who can pass well

Smithies
Furlong Lynch Ned Bidwell
Manning Hall
Freeman
Pawel Smith LuaLua

Might be a bit harsh dropping Washington just like the idea of using Smith as a battering ram to paly off during first half. LuaLua and Pawel both know how to beat a man and play a cross too

Tough one as both were very good tbh, this is the headache ollies got now! prefer hall in instead of perch, and think the newcastle selection for the first half then make changes if needed, but a more workman like side first half but still getting at them obviously, then we`ve got great attacking options if we need to go at them more after!

This is a game where we have to play Sylla. Like him or loath him he tends to find the net

[lincoln ranger]

Smithies

Onuoha (Perch accident waiting to happen/red card etc, and unfortunately Furlong appears to be not quite what we need there yet. Someone get him on the weights!)
Hall
Lynch
Robinson (if he is fit? He is so much a better alternative at LB than Bidwell, who doesn't get forward as much for my liking)

Freeman
Goss (time to try something new in the middle of MF and give Luongo a rest/drop him)
Manning
Lua Lua (must be given a start soon. Has come off the bench and in nearly every game looks our most potent threat in attack)

Mackie
Washington


Subs : If we need to bring on some attacking strength to resuce the game then Sylla, Smith and if he is fit enough perhaps Morrison to change the game for us.

Come on you R'rs!!!

I think that's a pretty good shout. Would probably start either Furlong or Perch myself instead of Ned. Midfield looks good. Would also possibly start Smith instead of Mackie. Totally agree with 4-4-2 though, and I also agree with dropping Luongo.

Guarantee that Ollie won't have it like that though. Bet he sticks with 3-5-2 and I bet there are a few played out of position to accommodate the formation!

Oh Crikey! Sorry, I forgot probably our best player the past 10/12 games...Wszolek!

So a quick re-shuffle in midfield to get him in. MF should read : Wszolek Freeman Manning Lua Lua (Goss making way)

Come on you R'rs!!!
