Kuszczak

Bruno~Greer~Upson~Ward

Stephens~Ince~Orlandi

Buckley~Ulloa~Lingard

Subs: Walton, Calderon, March, Lualua, Caskey, Spanish Dave, Hoskins

That looks pretty balanced to me.


Great team - will Oscar rotate though as we have QPR on Tuesday?

If yes, maybe Ince will sit out for Andrews (especially as Ince has a knock)

Just checked the club website and Ince has resumed full training today and will be in the squad for Saturday. Good news (with a bit of relief thrown in for good measure)!

:clap::clap:

I'll second those :clap::clap:'s

Although I really do respect the huge amount of experience and knowledge on NSC, I have to say, that for some strange reason, Tony Bloom chose Oscar Garcia to be the manager. He obviously sees a valid reason for continually picking Spanish Dave and although I have seen some performances that I thought were poor, I accept that I am not really qualified to disagree with the manager. However I for one cannot understand why he picks JFC as I think he is not worth a place in the squad let alone the starting 11, but that's another debate.

Orlandi is definitely out and it looks like Stephens and Ince won't be fit either so we are looking very weak in centre midfield. I would go:

Kuszczak

Bruno
Greer
Upson
Ward

Andrews
JFC
Lopez

Buckley
Ulloa
Lingard

Subs:

Angerkren
Dunk
Calderon
Agustien
Lua Lua
March
Rodriguez

Ince trained yesterday and is avaailble for selection - where do you get your news from?

Edit: Actually - sorry - just seen that he's only 50/50 - arse.

The Argus said Oscar is cautious about Ince returning and rates him as 50-50. With our shortage in midfield, I guess he'll probably have to risk him.

Yes, just edited my post and apologised... that would be a blow.

Ince probably just rated as 50/50 so as to not give too much away.

I reckon he will with Andrews and JFC either side. Probably because Oscar feels there is a better chance of beating Reading than QPR.

Andrews, Forster-Caskey and Lopez as our midfield three is Ince does not make it? Nothing against those three individually but I don't believe that three would be strong enough to dominate a game collectively.

It could well open the door for Kemy Agustien to return to the match day squad. In fact, if we are without Orlandi, Ince and Stephens as well as Crofts I would be very disappointed if Agustien wasn't included in the squad.
