Alessandro Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 1 minute ago, Shtanley said: Actually thought Pisano was quite good on Saturday. 2 right footers on the left is slightly worrying. I guess Taylor is better at dropping deep than Eisa. The selection is not an issue for me after Saturday - thought Pisano did an excellent job, as did Kelly who was really excellent. Given injuries I think it's our best option right now until Dasilva is ready. The goals came from individual errors by Webster and Hunt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davefevs Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 QPR Leistner signed from a Union Berlin looked ****** awful v West Brom. Bidwell - always thought he was a decent LB. Not over tall, so Watkins might have an advantage at back stick from Eliasson crosses. Scowen - competitive little midfielder Freeman - no idea who he is!

This is the team picked, every player has the chance to stake their claim. Good luck to the 11 (or 14) who take part tonight.

OldlandReddies Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Would have Dasilva, Eisa and Odowda in if it were me. Pisano should not be playing LB, Taylor just aint championship quality and Odowda for me is one of our hest players and should be found a place. Thankfully this QPR side is decimated and even weaker than ours but we wont get away with it against the Swans. Prove me wrong Lee/City !!!

Selred Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Personally I would of brought in: Da Silva for Pisano. However I am not confident he is fully fit, and as LJ (or someone) said they don’t want him breaking down. So make sense. Patto for Taylor. Just thought last season Patto played his best football behind Bobby. Would of liked him there tonight. Taylor is however good at link up play, and we do need another man in the box for balls in from Hunt and Elliason, to gamble on. Cant say I’m actually that annoyed with the line up. All fair reasons for those starting. The others not in the line up just aren’t fit really. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
