Blackburn Rovers (A) 8/8 build up thread

[Tony Towner]

I think it'll be the Villa team with a bench of:
McCarey
EEL
Doherty
Rowe
Le Fondre
Ojo
Van La Parra

Tough on Graham, Price and Bright but I don't think they'll make the bench

 

[Johnny75]

I think it'll be Nando's team with Ojo on the bench. Interesting that training was closed to the public today.

 

[Jolemai]

Enobakhare has been given the No.48 shirt. Possible indication that he's on the bench?

 

[DazzaWolvesUK]

Its a good line up watever it is much improved and balanced than last year

I imagine the only debate over our XI will be in the wide areas.

Ikeme, Iorfa, Stears, Hause, Golbourne, Coady, McDonald, Afobe and Dicko will be nailed on you'd imagine.

I'll go with:

Ikeme

Iorfa
Stearman
Hause
Golbourne

Henry
Coady
McDonald
Graham

Afobe
Dicko

Subs: McCarey, EEL, Edwards, Price, VLP, Enobakhare, Le Fondre

Graham hasn't got a squad number, so he won't be starting.

 

[DazzaWolvesUK]

Maybe ojo starting or he might play ALF there just hope its not Edwards

I'd rather play Edwards there than Le Fondre.

 

[The Bear]

I expect Ojo to start personally. He's had a good pre-season behind him at Liverpool so should hit the ground running after a couple of days training.

 

[The Bear]

Blackburn have signed Nathan Delfouneso on a year's deal.

 

[Tony Towner]

Not going to tempt fate, but........

 

[SouthWestWolf]

His record (judging by the wiki search I did) is pure bollocks.

 

[Lord Knows]

I agree Ojo to start on the left, long term I think he is likely to play on the right.

 

[SouthWestWolf]

Looks like Bright is in the picture, according to his Instagram he is "chilling for the first team game this weekend"

 

[The Bear]

They're not at all confident on their forum. They're shit scared of our pace and forwards, and are predicting us to win by two or more goals and hoping Bowyer doesn't set them up for a 0-0 or play Rhodes up front on his own.

Oh bugger, I hate it when the opposition are underdogs.

 

[Deleted Cyber]

Really excited. God I have missed this! COYW!

Sheyi Ojo for Grham and then I agree with ALF on the bench

 

[machin05]

You just know Edwards is going to start and deflate everybody's enthusiasm before kick-off

 

[east-coast-wolves]

Team seems to largely pick itself other than the LW. It'll be Ojo or Edwards. Think this forum would record a unanimous vote on who they'd prefer...

 

[Derby Wolf]

Will be eagerly checking the scores at the in-laws tomorrow.

I think Kenny errs to caution and will start with Edwards. They will be aware of our pace, Henry more so will offer something different and I can see Henry or McDonald unlocking a deep lying Bkackburn rather than the pace or trickery of Ojo, VLP or Graham. Horses for courses.

it was a 1-0 massacre last year due to poor finishing. Sako was away and Afobe hadn't yet signed, from the XI which beat them then to tomorrow I'd say we're stronger now purely for Afobes goals.
