Buckley on for Lopez for me... Their defense is strong and good in the air, but pretty immobile on the ground. Buckley on with a point to prove, and a flexible, quick, youthful on the floor attack with him, Lua Lua & JFC.
I don't think Barnes on would be a bad thing though..
I think we'll see both Andrews and Crofts playing deep in front of the back four personally. And when they receive the ball, they'll have license to take it forward. Just my take on it - I'm very happy with that as a 451-433, if our players can be flexible enough to carry it out. So much depends...
We played okay in that game until the sending off and galvanisation of the Newport team though, doesn't worry me.
And for those saying 'okay' vs Newport - fair enough, but we didn't look like we needed to get out of first gear vs them..
