RowlattsFox Posted 2 March 2020 Share Posted 2 March 2020 As full strength as we can be. Although I'd give Justin a go at left back. Kasper Ricardo Evans Soyuncu Justin Ndidi Praet Gray Tielemans Barnes Iheanacho I know I've said full strength and put Gray in the side but he can't be any worse than some of the others recently. Play Tielemans a bit further forward, where he doesn't have to work as hard and can use his quality better. Maddison deserves dropping. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingcarr21 Posted 2 March 2020 Share Posted 2 March 2020 Vardy needs a goal. So get him on the pitch and finally get back to scoring. I would play Vardy and rest Iheanacho for the Villa game on current form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CosbehFox Posted 2 March 2020 Share Posted 2 March 2020 Good to see Wilf and Vards on the boxing gloves. Hopefully they have been used around the club to settle all inner changing room beef 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xen Posted 2 March 2020 Share Posted 2 March 2020 Ward Ricardo - Bennett - Soyuncu - Justin Gray - Ndidi - Praet - Barnes Iheanacho - Vardy Vardy needs to find form quickly, so imo if he's fit he plays. If not, move Iheanacho up and bring Maddison back in for a 4-4-1-1. Justin has looked good when he's played so I'd start him, and I'd like to see more of him and Barnes linking up. Unfortunately that means that Ricardo can't get a rest, so maybe we'll look to Fuchs and have JJ at RB. Evans has been immense, but I'd rest him as I'd like to see how Bennett slots in. Youri and Maddison haven't been on it lately so they can watch from the sidelines and let Ndidi/Praet run the show. We've got a lack of depth on the wing - Perez would be my first choice but think Gray will be up for it against his old club and get the nod - hopefully he doesn't overthink it too much...

That's a shame because we've gone off the boil since he stopped scoring. Would have been nice to have a game where he can get back among the goals. Nacho looked sharp against Norwich mind and was unlucky to have his strike ruled out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birmingham are one of those clubs that when they want to can turn out a proper mob. But when you go to their ground for 90% of their league games it's flatter than Notts Forest's last 40 years of sporting history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Hamza and he has a role in the team, but he can't provide a direct replacement to Wilf in the way that Mendy can. Why let him go and risk bringing someone else in who might not fit in with the team and we have other priority areas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Md9 Posted 2 March 2020 Share Posted 2 March 2020 Give hirst or some one from the under 23s a run out can still put s string team out with one or 2 of them on the bench at least. I imagine wes and Fuchs will probably play and maybe ward. If nacho plays hope he gets a few Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
