Away Match Day Thread 18/02/23 L1: Cambridge United v OUFC

[bazzer9461]

Murphy starts - as does Baldock


Goodrham out injured ( hamstring) - anyone know whos on the bench?

 

[Swaby39]

Karl confirms it’s a back 3… thank the lord!! At last!! Not the ideal personnel but finally a very welcome change of shape.

I’m convinced this will have a positive effect. Feel much more optimistic now.

Come on lads

 

[ZeroTheHero]

anyone know whos on the bench?

McGinty, Findlay, McGuane, Konate, Wildschut, Browne and Henry.

 

[westyorkshireexile]

KR asked about Findlay and totally dodged the question.

 

[Bicester Yellow]

Three at the back - at least the forum will be happy.....

There’s playing 3 at the back, but play it with actual players who fit the system. Did you see Murphy against MK? Asking for trouble .

 

[Sarge]

O'Donkor not even on the bench ? - he actually knows where the goal is and how to score - 4 in the last 2 ( academy) games he started

This is a huge risk and will be the standout talking point if we fall flat on our face here.

What I will say is his brother was moulded in to a very capable wing back. Hopefully they’ve had a chat this morning.

 

[Thomas/Brock/Jones]

McGuane not starting either , bloody gamble of a line up

Played this morning for the Youth side

Yes you'd have to imagine Cambridge would target that right side.

 

[Made-in-Jericho]

Decided to come more out of pity than hope and also it’s my local game and only half an hour away for me.
Can’t see us winning but happy to be proved wrong or perhaps see KR’s last game.

ah Ok

One has desire to be the best he can be, the other doesn’t. We all know which one we have.

 

[Bicester Yellow]

ah Ok

Which I don’t really understand as Baldock will only last 60 minutes max.

 

[Berliner]

There's Bonner's team talk done...get the wrong side of the two wingbacks and attack the second ball.

 

[windmill]

Surely that's a massive gamble on Baldock.

if that

KR is a nasty piece of work
No one is allowed to question him

 

[Didcot Yellow]

Three at the back - at least the forum will be happy.....

I'd rather have had a 4 at the back than Murphy at RWB

 

[tonyw]

Seriously, what is he playing at??!?

He finally recognizes that 3 at the back is the way to go; but decides to pair that with three out-and-out strikers and a lazy forward at WB??

I hope Cambridge truly are rubbish, because we’re going to leave gaps with that XI
