I do not like the fact that players are treated differently or the fact the same issues that started appearing over years seem to happened again. Remember my thoughts on Farke are based on the 2 clubs I support in Football having him as either former coach or current coach. I watching him do the same things here at Leeds united that got him dismiss at Gladbach.
It has nothing to do with his actual football style but his players usage or isolation.
I assume that Peterborough is targeting most of this week's training to have their attacks through their right-hand side against a certain Firpo 😱. Expecting a rough, even game with our chances to proceed to the next round to be no more than 50-50, given our history.
We HAVE to change our normal starting X1 simply because we have good backup who wouldn't make the team less stronger....
The only changes I'd make to BB team would be Darlow, if fit, in goal. (How long does a dislocated finger take to heal?) He's definitely AT LEAST our no2 and quality.... I'd go as far to say that we could sell Meslier if we need money as Darlow is that good. I'd rather keep Meslier as he is our future in the Prem! 😜
Unfortunately, I think both Cresswell and Hjelde will be going. Strujik should be fit so probably best to give him a game for fitness....
I've always said Gyabi is quality but he just hasn't done it yet in his few opportunities.... do we need 2 holding in a game like this?
If this McGurk is that good should he not be playing?
Could we start with Bamford AND Joseph oop top?
I think our squad players are definitely good enough to not fall to lower league opposition.... this time!
Posh have just beaten Derby at Pride Park - they are a good team.
I would like us to rotate the first team squad in line with your team BB than put in a U23 side. We've not had the injuries so our backup first team are rusty.
Mind you, I wouldn't play Hjelde - looks like that ship has sailed, maybe Gyabi too.
Same team but with Cooper instead of Hjelde. Gelhardt also needs to come on as,sub if he's not a starter, although I reckon Bamford will start up front.
With the cup game coming up, would anyone care if we changed things right up and gave major minutes to the youth? Thinking about it, I like to see something like this.
My only problem with the side you have written that by excluding Gyabi, Bates, Joseph, Klaesson and even McGurk from this opportunity to start in the first team will see us further alienated them. Also the fact that we have Spence back and need of game time and not starting him will also see him upset.
At this stage Firpo, Gelthardt, Hjelde are still injured.
Remember seeing you at a preseason game at Peterborough Mouseman.... Roofe was playing and the young brothers who never made it with us? And Edmondson?
Is the away end still standing on the terrace?
It's got a slight chance of being on tv as they have about 6 games televised now....
My thread is "pending approval" so please be patient even if it is not worth reading/funny
I am happy to do it. Will only last one game so not too much of my time taken up
Who is doing the cup MDT , I can't do it as I am doing the league games so it would break convention.
posh and a decent team,I think DF will rest a few but put out a strong team.
Klassen
Ayling cresswell Coops Firpo
Gruiev Kamara
Anthony Gelhardt Gnonto
Bamford

I would go for:
KK
Spence Cresswell Hejlde Firpo
Gruiev Gyabi
Gonto Poveda Antony
Joseph
Subs Van de Heuval Cooper Summerville Bamford Rutter James Piroe Gray
With the cup game coming up, would anyone care if we changed things right up and gave major minutes to the youth? Thinking about it, I like to see something like this.
Klaesson
Spence, Cresswell (c), Hjelde, Firpo
Grey, Gyabi, Bates
McGurk, Gelthardt
Joseph
Basically a u23's side.
going to be a tough game,Posh will be up for it,they are 5th in L1.
I'd play
Darlow
Ayling Cresswell Cooper Firpo
Gruev Shackleton
Anthony Poveda Gnonto
Paddy
and give a few youngsters a run-Joseph,McGurk,Gelhardt,etc
My team for this game:
Klaesson
Spence, Rondon (C), Cresswell, Shackleton
Gyabi, Gruev, Bates,
Gnonto, Joseph, Anthony.
Rondon for 50 minutes and then replaced by Montinero the young CB from the U21's.
Also McGurk needs some time as does Gelthardt if he is fit again.
Sorry Soopa, I dont care about this one. Just going up is all that matters. My Team:
Darlow
Spence Cresswell Cooper Shackleton
Gruev Dyaba
Gnoto Geldhart Antony
Bamford
They will be up for this in front of their crowd so lets not risk injuries or burnout
I'll do the FA Cup MDT
This looks like a perfect tie for us to shag then concentrate on the league.
