Who will be dropped from the bench?

Recommended Posts

Posted

It will probably rotate depending on the opponent and formation we play (although this is mainly 442 now.) I'd be very tempted to keep Hammond on the bench particularly for away games.

Posted

I would risk not having back up keeper on the bench. The advantage of having that extra option on the bench outweighs the benefit if kasper gets injured/sent off. Therefore ill go with

Was

Schlupp

Mahrez

Hammond (at away games) GTF (at home games)

King

Phillips

Wood

Just barely. We'd look pretty f**king stupid if Kasper saw red. For me it's a no brainer to have a spare keeper. It's a very necessary precaution. Kasper can be a lose cannon as well.

Logan

Was

Hammond

King

Mahrez

Wood

Phillips.

Schlupp out on loan for a few months and GTF to rotate in and out depending on opposition and or formation.

Some people are ****ing crazy to suggest no goalie on the bench.

Imagine Kasper gets injured early on in a vital game and NP didn't have a keeper on the bench... Would certainly fuel the fire of the anti NP brigade!

Harsh on players who have helped us to get to the position we are in to be removed from the squad for a bloke who's openly stated he's gonna retire at the end of the season.

Hammond and GTF look most likely to be sacrificed.

No room for sentiment only promotion.

 

Half the squad that gets us up won't be good enough for the prem week in week out.

Expect 5/6 new first team players to come in in the summer.

 

If KP comes in scores 6 goals gains us 8 points from lose draw situations who give a toss.

Football is an evolving game long time great servants get replaced before they retire.

 

Thats life get used to it.

Be surprised if Jeff is whilst Miquel is still injured. Left back cover.

Posted

Miquel can cover Schulpp's position easily.

Miquel

King

GTF

Hammond

Phillips

Mahrez

Wasyl

Bloody hell, what a squad we've got now.[what about the keeper cover]

Posted

Don't think NP will risk Mahrez for a couple of week, until he acclimatises to the pace of the game. I can see him playing a couple of warm up games, with a chance given at Bournemouth, so my subs for saturday are

 

Logan

Wasyl (as Miquel is not completely fit)

Hammond

King

Wood

GTF

Phillips

We probably have 5 or 6 outfield players in our regular match day squad that are better keepers than Logan. Ditch him.

I jest, I think.

Posted

Isn't it brilliant that the signing of just 2 players has given us a selection headache for the bench? lol

I think we can now say we have strength in depth in what is a relatively small squad.

No offence to Logan but his name sticks out a bit.

Posted

Schlupp will be playing LB so that problem is solveed because if Konchesky has a hamstring pull then he might be out for a few weeks and as I think Miquel isnt fit yet

Of course you would have one in a vital game, some league games you could be tempted to get away with seven outfield players though.

sadly we have to have Logan on the bench for home games, no one else could comfortably sit in the ass grooves he's worn in to his seat.

Why is it more of a risk in big games? Surely its a risk in any game?

Posted

With the arrivals of Mahrez and Phillips out bench is going to be seriously strong. I would imagine some players may be miffed about not being involved at all.

Possible bench options for tomorrow:

Logan

Wasyl

Miquel

Schlupp

Hammond

King

Mahrez

Wood

Phillips

Waghorn

GTF

Hope it doesn't cause unrest! To me players like schlupp and waggy need to go. Either loans or perm

Posted

Schlupp may well be in the team tomorrow, Waghorn won't be in the squad like most of the season, can't see it being a problem
