This has all the makings of a defeat, and a big scalp (comparatively speaking, not in terms of league form). Former Prem winners away to Wrexham on Sky etc.

Think that ship sailed a long time ago.

Who’d have thought 5 years ago we’d see Matty James in a team above us in the league? 
 

And that’s not Matty’s fault 

Marty's always been a very good player just had a career ruined by injuries

Bit of adversity and physicality? I was more sure we'd lose this than Coventry and haven't changed.

Yeah I think we'll fold here and Marti will get binned as a result.

 

We're destined to watch Forest stay up, Coventry go up and for us to finish behind Derby.

Same old rhetoric.  Even if we were to lose 6 0  Marti will not be sacked.  We haven't a pot to pee in e=we can't afford to sack him end of.

Wrexham fans fancy their chances to get something from the game according to their fans forum.....blind optimism? or a near on certainty?

 

Sadly it looks like we've gone back to being unpredictable Leicester,  for me the result all depends on the team selection, one thing is for certain it will be physical, so I don't think it's the type of game where we can be carrying anyone. 

 

I'd be inclined to consider JJ in the 10, start Hamza in his natural position with Skipp as your two CDMs. Aluko in for Thomas and drop Ayew for Daka and try and play on the counter. 

 

Unfortunately we don't have the luxury of much in the way of rotation but I think dropping Thomas, Reid and Ayew wouldn't be a bad shout.

They're at home and are above us in the league. It's certainly not blind optimism.

Hamza and Skipp in a double pivot? Would rather take a dip in the canal.

To be fair we've been crap since Wrexham fans got into football

And James as a 10 - the position he is least effective in.

They have justified reasons to be optimistic. Our results are actually very random. The performances are crap 90% of the time.

Wrexham podcaster on When You're Smiling was quite complimentary about James, Brunt and Ward but when it came to Coady he said he's off the pace, about 7th or 8th choice and unlikely to play for the club again. Yikes.

Put him are gardening leave then.

 

We have the money put aside to pay him, each week/month  but the important thing is to remove his influence from the club

I always liked James. A model professional and so glad to see other fans appreciate him. Will never boo this man.

I would rather have Reid up front rather than Daka and have Page behind.  I don't think Daka has the right to call himself a forward anymore.  There is no point playing Daka if they are going to pass the ball to him with his back to goal and expect him to control it.  A pass to Daka is like giving away a free kick.  Reid at least knows where to be in the box and can shoot on target onside and out the box.

 

Nothing will change on the pitch with this clown in charge.  He will play Ayew, Thomas and it wouldn't surprise me if he brings Soumare back in.

I know this won't happen as gaffer is in the headlights. But maybe try a formation change. 

 

                     Jakob

      Okoli     Vesty    Nelson

Fatawu    Skipp    Hamza   Mavididi 

                       James

               Page        Daka

If they do win (as they should) there will be a bit of noise comparing where the clubs were on specific dates but anyone who has followed this division won't be surprised. We aren't viewed as a good team.
