Preferred Team For Saturday 10:43 - Sep 16 with 4049 viewsJimmyRustler

Assuming everyone who was in the matchday squad for Walsall is fit, what would be your preferred line-up and formation?

I would go:
Ramming
Moss
Flint
Taylor
Tasker
Adeeko
Gilmour
Hannant
Smith
Hayes
Brown

4-2-3-1 with Smith playing the 10 role behind Brown. If Hayes isn't fit then I would try Middleton there. Maguire being fit again is a welcome boost but I would be wary of rushing him back in and I think Moss and Flint can strike up a decent partnership with Tasker and Taylor either side. I also think Mani D needs to be dropped and the only viable forward we have in that position (save a cameo from Hendo) is Brown at the moment

Ed Francis back after ban?...........still agree with Gilmour though.

Agree about the Moss / Flint CB combo - the start of a solid base for whatever we can put together further forward

If Maguire can stay fit, he'd be a steady replacement off the bench, with potential for joining in with a back three, which would be a great tactic to exploit in-game to put the opposition out of their stride

Ramming
Tasker
Moss
Flint
Wilson
Adeeko
Gilmour
Hannant
Taylor
Middleton/Smith - who ever is deemed as being fitter.
Brown

Gilmour over Francis as he is more combative which will need. Taylor as the ten. He can also drop in when needed to give a bit more stability in midfield. Hannant with his work rate on one side and whoever is the fitter of Smith and Middleton to play the other side. I would have Hayes and whoever does not start between Smith and Middleton on the bench but use them after 60 minutes to bring a fresh impact. Look to attack Scott-Morris if he is playing as a right back in a back four.

I would start with Brown and look to play in behind the Oldham defense. He will certainly offer more of a running threat and could help to create space for Taylor.

Aye.

In the words of Dave Sutton (I think) - “One word of encouragement is worth ten of criticism”

Some of our ‘supporters’ might want to try it sometime.

Anyone seen ‘Trev’? Is he off playing golf with Duffy?

I would go for a 4-4-2 personally. Be a tough game though. Can see us getting a loss, they have a good record against us in recent years. Just got to block the noisy bunch up early in the game. We are due a win against them in fairness. Up the Dale !
