Team for Wigan?

Recommended Posts

Posted

Are Wigan beatable? I'd like to think so, but I can't see it happening tomorrow, we need to beat them to all but guarantee safety, a draw would just limit the possibilty of any youngsters being able to break into the team for the final few games!

Just had a look on their official site, and they've given us quite a write up, not sure it's fully justified, especially players to watch out for - Nalis, haha they're having a laugh:

City vs Wigan preview

Anyway team line up for me tomorrow looks like this (I haven't got it right once yet so don't expect half this team to play :wave: ):

              Walker

Kenton   McCarthy  Dabizas   Maybury

Gillespie Williams Gudjonnson Stewart

         Dublin   Connolly

Subs: Hirschfeld | Stearman | Nalis | Tiatto | De Vries

Walker

Maybury - McCarthy - Dabizas - Stewart

Gillespie - Gudjonsson - Williams - Tiatto

Connolly - de Vries

I'm not sure about the two centrebacks, but I reckon Levein will go with McCarthy and Dabizas. McCarthy will provide a bit of pace at the back, and Dabizas was Man of the Match against Brighton. I think Stewart will be back at left back, with Tiatto left wing to provide some balance down that side.

Looking forward to this game, booked my tickets last night and I generally think we have a chance.

Would like to see this line-up

Walker

Kenton

Dublin

McCarthy

Maybury

Gillespie

Gudjonsson

Williams

Stewart

De Vries

Connolly

Subs: Hirschfield, Canero, Moore, Tiatto, Dabizas, Nalis

Worries me that I have to pick De Vries (I would prefer to see Dublin carry on at the back) and Gudjonsson (mis-placed pass after another) but there you go. Don't see many other options at the moment (both Tiatto and Nalis are in woeful form). Would probably prefer Canero to Kenton, if anything to see him get a chance, but that's not going to happen. Hopefully, we'll see Stewart at left wing where he can add that extra attacking threat (we only have one out and out winger in Gillespie down the right).

I have a feeling Jordan Stewart is going to rescue our season*

*By rescue our season, I mean pull us closer to safety

It worries me that we aren't strong enough down the flanks at the minute. We were far more stronger when it was Maybury/Stearman and Gillespie and Stewart and Tiatto. Since Stewart has been injured and Kenton has arrived we haven't put anywhere near as many crosses in as the full backs aren't getting forward enough and neither are the wingers. Tiatto and Stewart used to overlap well, so did Maybury and Gillespie but it's not happening now. That needs sorting personally. Also who do we choose at centre half? All three deserve to be playing at the minute, i'd get rid of greasy though as he's still prone to a mistake or two.

I have a sneeky feeling it could be this with Kento and McCarthy at centre back to deal with the pace of Roberts and Ellington and they are not fantastic in the air.

just re read the thread on the wigan leicester game at jjb and that wigan boy is a twat. Can be found this by going on statistics. I hope we beat them because this guy is a nob.

we also have brett ormerod who is fast

to the person who said roberts and ellington arent good in the air - roberts isnt that good at heading from say a goal kick but he can score goals with his noggin ala cardiff

and ellington, well, i suppose you've never seen him play? he can leap higher than anyone in this league (ex high jump champ) and his heading is just one of his many fantastic abilities

ellington wont cause you any problems tomorrow as he's injured and has been for months

watch out for jason roberts though, he's much better than ellington and has been my player of the year for 2004 and 2005 and i'm sure many latics fans as well

Thats what I thought! lol Would be nice though...

For me:

Walks

Stearman McCarthy Dabizas Maybury

Gillespie Williams Nalis Tiatto

Connolly De Vries

Bench: Hirschfeld, Stewart, Dublin, Moore, Gudjonnson

I just prefer Nalis. A lot of people say he's a bit anonymous but thats because hes actually tracking and keeping an eye on runners and I feel he holds a bit better than Gudjonnson (and doesnt waste the ball quite as much).

Perfect analysis, I think Maybury looked much more threatening on the right side.

Posted

I think it's just a case of Maybury being more confident on the right, as he can either go on the outside or cut inside when going forward. Whereas on the left, he can only cut inside, which limits his options.
