Team v Watford ?

Post by FCBurnley » Thu Apr 05, 2018 3:49 pm

Assuming Mee and JBG are missing and Heaton is available as reported, I would go for

Pope
Lowton Tarks Long Ward
Lennon Cork Westwood Hendrick
Barnes Wood

Vino blanco

Agree with your team fcb. If Mee and JBG are fit, then they play.

Why Hendrick for GKN?

You know players only get 1 game before being written off

I thought he did ok at West Brom but was a bit lightweight. Watford will be way more physical than Albion and therefore I would prefer Hendrick on from the start. GKN might be more effective as a sub if we need to be more attacking.

Pope
Lowton Tarky Mee Ward
Lennon Cork Westwood GKN
Barnes
Wood

Long if Mrs first make it
JBG for GKN if fit

Would take a point if offered now, will be a big test having previously played 3 teams in turmoil in a row. I think Watford will be well up for this, and no lucky charms going either.

Pope
Lowton Tark Mee Ward
Lennon Westwood Cork JBG
Barnes Wood

If JBG isnt fit then GK to start.
Heaton to play the last 10 minutes if we are winning by 2 goals or more.

Do you think we could see Taylor come in for Mee or is it more likely to be Long?

I saw the pre-season with Taylor playing centrally and it wasnt pretty at times but hopefully if he does come in, they have been working on this in training and should be improved.

If both Mee and JBG are injured, then the same as the win vs WBA. Obviously Long for Mee.

Aaron Lennon picked up a knock today and is also doubtful.
