Think I'd like to see the following line up -

Vigs
Key
Cabango
Darling
Tymon
Ronald
Allen
Grimes
Franco
Eom
Striker with a bit of pace. Physicality and can head the ball...

 

[NorfolkSwan]

…and if Allen is not fit, then Abdulai (please not Fulton)

Bang on the money

 

[Ringwood]

There is no chance Abdulai will play ahead of Fulton at Boro.

There is no chance Abdulai will play ahead of Fulton at Boro.

If that’s the case it’s certainly not based on pre season performances

 

[Ringwood]

LW will go defensive....

Until we concede 2...

 

[Swansea93]

Looking light in numbers if Ronald, Govea, Allen & Myko are all out injured.

Soooooo assuming Ronald is fit and there are no other changes to the squad as a whole I guess we are probably looking at something like this:

--------------------------- Vigouroux ----------------------------
Key --------- Cabango ----------------- Darling -------- Tymon
---------------------------- Grimes ------------------------------
--------------- Fulton/Abdulai -------- Franco ------------------
Ronald ------------------------------------------------------ Eom
---------------------------- Vipotnik -----------------------------

Obviously powers that be have a decision to make about offering a deal to Providence but I enjoyed what I saw from him and I think he would blend in well with our attackers. Don't know if anything will come of signing that Swedish kid but if we did I would imagine he would slot in further forward and Franco dropping back to the "Pratley" box to box sort of role.
