Title: Your team for Dagenham
Post by: reeves4england on Monday, August 15, 2011, 14:17:25
Who would you pick? I reckon there'll be plenty of different opinions what with the number of players to come in and the problems up front. Here's what I'd go for...

Smith
Caddis
Devera (or Comazzi?)
Flint
Kennedy
Esajas
McCormack
Risser (wouldn't mind Ferry, but seeing as he's the captain...)
Ritchie
Connell
Bodin

Bit unsure about the strikers. Bodin hasn't really convinced but De Vita had an absolute mare at Cheltenham - at least Bodin put a couple of shots on target and ran around a bit. I'm just hoping Connell will give us a bit more presence up front - he seemed to give us an extra option when he came on on Saturday.

Bench... hard to pick but something like Bedwell, Comazzi, Ferry, Atiku, De Vita

My Team

Smith
Caddis
Comazzi
Flint
Kennedy
Esajas
McCormack
Ferry
Ritchie
Connell
Bodin/Di Vita (can't decide)

I'd imagine it will be Risser, Devera, A.n. Other (Esejas not starting) and goodness knows up front.

Think so. haven't heard anything about Cibocchi either so presume he's still out injured?

Post by: LucienSanchez on Monday, August 15, 2011, 14:41:33
Devera didn't look great against Crewe, and looks like he was beaten for the goal (he is #5, right?) so i'd go for:

Smith

Caddis
Flint
Comazzi
Kennedy

Ritchie
Risser (not sure on him, but PdC loves him)
McCormack
Ferry
Esajas

Connell

the thinking being that Esajas and Ritchie can be well advanced, and Ferry can get in the box too - i don't think Bodin and De Vita are any use up front. This is in no way a prediction, just what i'd do.


Title: Re: Your team for Dagenham
Post by: Processed Beats on Monday, August 15, 2011, 14:42:37
Smith

Caddis
Comazzi
Flint
Kennedy

Ritchie
Ferry
McCormack
Esajas

Connell
De Vita

No chance of it happening mind. Reasons for selection are that Devera looked shaky against Crewe, although by all accounts did nothing wrong on Saturday. Also think Ferry is by far the most creative and industrious of all our central midfielders, 10 minute cameos at the end of games is not his thing. Esajas (if fit) should offer the team creativity, width and the willigness to run at players and shoot, so would include him. And Connell purely because De Vita and Bodin are just too similar.

I'd go with this. Sounds like De Vita wasn't as good on Saturday but thought he played well against Crewe and he and Connell seemed to enjoy playing together in preseason.

I know it's early but I'm not convinced by Risser just yet, things just seem to pass him by a little.

I think given our lack of physicallity up top we need to be a little 'cuter' in the middle and can only see Ferry make the more incisive passes, therefor I go with:

Smith

Caddis
Flint
Devera
Kennedy

Ritchie
McCormack
Ferry
Esajas

Connell
Bodin

So basically the same as b3nny just no change in defence.


Title: Re: Your team for Dagenham
Post by: fish head on Monday, August 15, 2011, 15:01:39
Still want to know why Timlin wasn't involved on Saturday?

Has he lost his place now Esajas is back?


Title: Re: Your team for Dagenham
Post by: Parkin09 on Monday, August 15, 2011, 15:10:10
I think everyones being way to harsh on Risser, give him a chance! I don't think Simon will be going anywhere, I think Paolo knows he offers a lot and in the coming weeks he will get his chance,
McCormack looked good on Saturday so he deserves to be there, Oliver is our captain but I think if Paolo didn't think he was performing he'd drop him, he's shown he doesn't take passengers.

I think we should go with

Smith

Caddis
Devera
Flint
Kennedy

Ritchie
McCormack
Risser
Esajas

Connell
De Vita


Subs: Whichever GK is fit, Comazzi, Atiku, Ferry, Bodin.

I agree with this team. Devera couldn`t cope with any high balls so Flint helped him out. He looks a tad out of his depth at the moment. De Vita is fast but needs a Connell type of player with him. I liked Esajas but not sure if he is 100% so I expect him to come on as an impact player for the moment. Difficult game coming up....

im sure paolo said he was back to full match fitness when he said about esijas.

i would like to see connell and kerrouche start up front, we need goals!!

Title: Re: Your team for Dagenham
Post by: dannywilliamsisgod on Monday, August 15, 2011, 17:12:36
Forgot about Ritchie :doh: would leave Bodin out, as I think  the absence of a physical  presence up front is a real problem, and we only have Storey to fit that requirement.Think it would be worth having Storey on the bench to consider bringing on later in the game if needed. Hopefully Di Canio will sort it out soon.Pretty much every team in this league are going to be physical, in yer face outfits.Dagenham will be every bit as direct, physical, and in yer face as Cheltnum amongst others.


Title: Re: Your team for Dagenham
Post by: reeves4england on Monday, August 15, 2011, 18:34:50
One thing I will point out... Dossevi scored against Dagenham last year. So a lack of firepower might not be too much of a problem if we can keep it tight at the back!


Title: Re: Your team for Dagenham
Post by: Coca Fola on Monday, August 15, 2011, 18:44:27
Put Kerrouche on the bench. Bring him on for the last 20 mins. I'm sure even with a lack of fitness he can last 20 minutes.

To be fair, I've never seen Storey play, in fact I haven't haven't seen any of the current squad play so I am in the position of not really being able to comment. I may even have swapped Ritchie for Esajas and left him on the bench with having the option for them to swap wings. I only go with the TEF consensus in the early days this season but I may change my mind when I eventually get to take in a few games in Sept/Oct.

Cant understand why Connell has been on the bench so far, our best striker by a mile.

Amankwaah (ok, I know he's hit and miss but is he really that bad he cant do us a job in L2?)
Comazzi
Flint
Kennedy

Caddis (not a full back)
Ferry (our best CM)
Risser
Ritchie (left footer on left wing)

Connell
De Vita

Thats how I'd line up - but then again - I cant even remember the last time I watched us play...think it might have been Daggers at home last March.

I'd like to see easyjet start. Him on one wing and Ritchie on the other.

I'd also like to see Ferry start with Mcormack in the middle.

I also know this will not happen.

PDC has already said he's going for attack tonight so maybe we'll see a 4.3.3 formation.

                smith

caddis - Flint - comazzi - kennedy

   devita - connell - ritchie

I like that a lot! Maybe swap Rafa for Esajas and have it more of a 4-5-1 with Risser not getting up too much and hanging back, Simon and McCormack spreading it wide and Esajas and Ritchie joining in with Connell when possible, I think with them supporting Alan could do a job up to on his own.

easyjet and ritchie on the wings and connell up top and I'm fairly confident we would have pulled Cheltenham's pants down.
