Post by ablueclaret » Sun Jan 08, 2017 10:02 am

is that we could end the season losing three centre-backs.

For one game?

I wish we could stick yuu in the reserves, or even better on loan to Ullan Bator United

There isn't a problem. Good to see different partnerships yesterday.

Agree with you quite regularly but this is ridiculous. Mee knows he is integral to our team. Suspect he`s first on the team sheet for Dyche.

There is a difference between being rested/saved and being dropped.

Why would we not give the obviously talented JT a start? The only surprise was that it was not MK that was rested.

You criticise Dyche for not trying different things,you criticise Dyche for trying different things. :lol: :lol: :lol:
Was it that Tarks didn't play in midfield to accommodate Mee in the side?.

Agreed summit. We are led to believe that the future is tarka and mee, so would make sense to pair them for the cup game. Anyway, SD knows best.

More gittishness from abc. Very close to joining kbrfc...

Suspect PHYSICALLY Mee needed a rest more than Keane due to his more `full on` style of play.

F Scott Fitzgerald said that the sign of a first class mind is its ability to hold opposing thoughts and yet still function.

In other words, Ablue is fishing and is also being a dick.

I don't bother with any thread started by AB these days.

In this case, however, I'm responding to say that the OP title was 100% obviously his even before I saw the username underneath.

Predictable and boring isn't in it. :roll:

Keane Tarka and Mee are in my opinion amongst the top 5 outfield players at the club, they should all be in the side.
However if Mee is dropped and I can see that as a real possibility not just a one off then that creates a whole new dynamic within the squad.
Ironically the return of Barton a player I don't think we should have gone anywhere near could ultimately result in the loss of our best defenders.

Midfield or defence, pick a spot for Tarkowski and stick with it.

We needed a specialist CM and we've got one.
As well as Tarkowski has apparently done, we needed a better option for the rest of this season.
It only needed an injury to a couple of CM's and a CB at the same time and we'd be short staffed again.

You can't complain when the current love of your life gets a run out at CB, because that's actually what we signed him for.

We used the cup to give him a game.

Next you'll be saying Heaton and Robinson are off next week because Pope played too...

You need to study the dynamics of soccer it's how teams rise and fall.

You need to stop fretting because Mee was rested for a game.

Like I said, we needed an actual CM and we've got one.
Tarks was signed as a CB and he was played there against Sunderland.

Only you would decide that Mee, Tarkowski and Keane will all be off in the summer.
It's almost like it doesn't matter that Mee signed a new deal recently...
