If there's a chance of us winning late in the game throw on Watkins and Duran and see what happens. I’m not sure we should be dropping Watkins after one indifferent game tbh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even being a couple of weeks behind on training it would be a brave call to leave him out of the starting XI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be tempted but probably bottle This is one of the reasons why I think we've had a good transfer window - we can actually discuss things like leaving out Ollie or McGinn and it not be a completely and utterly ridiculous notion. I do think Ollie will have had another week of training and given how fit he keeps himself - I expect him to be more on it than he was against West Ham. However, even if he's still playing below his usual level - he's still (hopefully) going to be troubling the opposition CBs and that will give Rogers and Bailey a bit more space to try and exploit in that gap between the midfield and the defensive line. They both had good chances at West Ham because the defence were (partially) worrying about where Ollie was. I think we'll do something quite similar to West Ham. We'll probably play Digne, McGinn and Ollie and then if we have a chance to go for a win bring on Maatsen and Ramsey to be a bit more dynamic in the opposition half and then unleash the chaos.

gilbertoAVFC Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 Leaving out Watkins is a bit ridiculous. Wouldn't have been ahead of West Ham - clearly would be now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
