Re: Pre-season minutes on the pitch
With Taylor having played today (and that evidence of minutes you’ve supplied there), it makes you wonder whether Pieters might start on Saturday but, like you, I think it moved towards Pieters with Taylor getting minutes in the game today.

Re: Pre-season minutes on the pitch
I was trying to work out the team and I've got most of the places sorted as to who I think Dyche will start with on Saturday. The left back slot is one of about three I'm not so sure about.jedi_master wrote:With Taylor having played today (and that evidence of minutes you’ve supplied there), it makes you wonder whether Pieters might start on Saturday.

Re: Pre-season minutes on the pitch
No, I believe he will play Pope. The three positions I'm unsure of, in terms of who I think Sean Dyche will select, are left back, right midfield and one of the striker positions. I'll probably have it completely wrong.claret10 wrote:Is one of your unsure positions goalkeeper?

Re: Pre-season minutes on the pitch
I think the full back positions are the only one's up for grabs. He'll stick with Barnes and Wood after the way they finished last season, but at least now we have another option in Jay who Dyche trusts and rates.

Re: Pre-season minutes on the pitch
Wouldn't be surprised to see Pieters start given his pre season. Not only minutes but performances. Looks a solid player and hasn't come to just pick up a wage judged on that. Looks like he is hungry and has a point to prove.
However if I was a betting man I would guess the team will be
Pope
Lowton
Tarkowski
Mee
Taylor
JBG
Cork
Westwood
McNeil
Wood
Barnes
Definitely don't think he will break up the front two. Nor should he.

Re: Pre-season minutes on the pitch
Got to be Chris and Jay up front. The games I have seen Ash is a bit behind these two at the moment. I don’t think Sean will want to get beat first game so in that case I think he’ll play Aaron on the right (prefer JBG) as a more defensive option. On performances from last year he’s got to play Charlie before Erik. COYC

Re: Pre-season minutes on the pitch
That's a good side - We'll be fine with that this season. Got some goodens on the bench as well so I'm not too worried.cricketfieldclarets wrote:Wouldn't be surprised to see Pieters start given his pre season. Not only minutes but performances.

Only concern is an injury to a central midfielder and we're looking short, so if we can get one in before Thursday I think we've done well this pre-season.
Agree also with not breaking up the front two. Rodriguez is ace but I still think we stick with Barnes and Wood as they looked a real handful at the back end of last season

Re: Pre-season minutes on the pitch
Everyone seems to think JBG on the right hand side despite the options. It could be Hendrick, who played most of the games there at the back end of last season or it could be Lennon who has looked excellent in pre-season.
Re: Pre-season minutes on the pitch
I think he will start with Pieters but that would be hard on Taylor who was my player of the year.ClaretTony wrote:I was trying to work out the team and I've got most of the places sorted as to who I think Dyche will start with on Saturday.

Re: Pre-season minutes on the pitch
Pope
Lowton
Tarkowski ? Gibson
Mee
Pieters
JBG
Cork
Westwood
McNeil
Wood
Jay
This is what it will be come saturday as any new ones will not be involved anyway - but doubt we will get anyone anyway.

Re: Pre-season minutes on the pitch
How come our new keeper hasn't been given a game?
Re: Pre-season minutes on the pitch
i predict Taylor and Barnes will start (barring injuries). SD is loyal to his players

Re: Pre-season minutes on the pitch
I think Jay Rod will partner Wood
Right wing I really think Lennon as done so well in pre season that he will get the nod
Left back has to be Taylor
Hendrick and Cork inside of McNeil
Pope is No 1
Lawton Mee Tarko

Re: Pre-season minutes on the pitch
I think it’ll be
Hart
Lowton Tarkowski Mee Taylor
Mcneil Cork Westwood Hendrick
Wood Barnes
I would go
Pope
Lowton Tarkowski Mee Taylor
McNeil Cork Westwood Jay
Wood Barnes
Bring JBG & Hendrick on for Wood and Barnes and push Jay & Dwight up front
Then bring Lennon on for Cork and push Hendrick up behind Jay & Dwight
Don’t like to overthink things
I have been away and drinking a lot though

Re: Pre-season minutes on the pitch
I have a feeling Joe Hart will be between the sticks on Saturday, also think Lennon will start.
Re: Pre-season minutes on the pitch
Bonkers if he drops Charlie Taylor, who was one of our finest players last year.

Re: Pre-season minutes on the pitch
I'll be amazed if he breaks up the Barnes and Wood partnership just yet. I think Jay will have to bide his time.

Re: Pre-season minutes on the pitch
Jay Rod and Wood upfront , McNeil and Lennon wings (ish)
Hendrick/Westwood/cork ( 2 from 3)and last seasons defence with Pope probs starting . Bit underwhelming but could yet get a lot better if we get a quality centre mid . Bench of Barnes /JBG

Re: Pre-season minutes on the pitch
I fully expect the likes of Taylor, Barnes and Wood to keep their place from last season.
There's only one position I'm not sure of and that's right midfield. Had we been away at Old Trafford for example, I think he'd have opted for Hendrick to help track back and work well with Lowton as they both did last season defensively. But it's at home to Southampton so think he'll go with JBG, with the rest of the lineup the same as last season.

He signed on Friday
We played on Saturday
There have been no other preseason games for the "first team" since so how do you expect him to have played any minutes?
