Town: Foderingham, Thompson N, Branco, Ward (C), Reckord, Kasim, Luongo, Thompson L, Pritchard, Ranger, Smith
Subs: Belford, Byrne, Harley, Barthram, Barker, Storey, Gladwin
Like the look of midfield with Thompson in there, plus obviously Smith and Ranger up front. The defence makes me shudder though. |

We have no natural winger in the team (not sure if Pritchard can be classed as a winger or attacking midfielder) that would seem that we are going to play with 2 holding midfielders in Kasim and Thompson in front the back 4 with Luongo in front as a centre midfield and Pritchard in a free/attacking role behind the front 2.
Unusual formation considering we will be playing with 2 6 foot 2+ strikers and what would appear to be no winger.
Might well work or maybe Pritchard and Luongo will be playing wide, hard to tell really.

Blimey, Ranger and Smith both playing. It will be interesting to see what system we use.
I imagine it'll either be a 4-5-1 with Ranger on the wing or a 4-1-3-2 with Louis/Kasim in front of the defence and Pritch, Kasim/Louis, Luongo. I suppose Pritchard could play as inbetween the Strikers and Midfield. Either way, seems more likely we're going to be playing through the middle than up the flanks. Good looking team. |

They may be in defence yet we don't Know, It's the team, given available players, that I suggested this morning....Smith and Ranger should be able to improve the dire set piece situation....Pritchard can play a link role, a bit like Martin Ling used to do....if it doesn't work then fair enough back tomthe drawing board. |

More hope than expectation but I like the look of that team and I'm going for a 3-2 win.

Coops very cautious about talking about Smith/Ranger as a combination in the pre-match interview. I think he's doing a sterling job with Ranger as he obviously seems to loathe him.

Not sure how you can play Ranger and Smith in the side without playing 2 up front?! So presumably it's a standard 4-4-2 with Kasim in the holding role. Anyway I think we'll win 2-1! C.O.Y.Rs!!!

Agree on that. He does come across as being easily loathable, too. |

This must be about his 5th or 6th game he has commentated on for BBCRS he has a problem with several Town players names! |

Is my request for Pritchard to play wide being granted?
