Lots of good lads been through the "LATICS SCHOOL OF SCIENCE" :).
Mustoe was in the same team as Buxton,and representing Wigan are obviously quality players lol

Re: Alty Away
 

On another subject Cashy,how did you think the "hunt/joycy "partnership did ?,i was impressed

Re: Alty Away
 

Windass MUST start for me. He was class the last 5 games of last season.

HUnt/ Joyce as a central mid partnership is a step backwards in every way. Ive seen more movement in a traffic cone.

Re: Alty Away
 

Thought it worked ok,Hunt fer me is a thinking player,which in midfield is needed.:)

Re: Alty Away
 

I know what your saying smudge,along with Naismith,is probably our most talented player,
I am a sucker for up and coming talent so I tend to agree with you,but he has to deliver and in the second half he should have shone,but it was others that caught the eye,indeed 7 of his first 10 passes went astray.
He's definitely got it so what about three in the middle with hunty holding ?,say 4-1-4-1 , I am second guessing,so the opposition has no chance !!!

Re: Alty Away
 

I think for me, the player who will pose a problem is Buxton. He has superb talent and can play anywhere..... but where does he fit in? Im sure its a problem JB wont mind having, but for me at the moment its looking tough to pick him in the XI?

............................Turner.......?
Hunt......Aldred.......Winnard.......Buxton/ Liddle?
....................Joyce.........Windass......... .......
............Hatfield......Naismith.......... Mingoia
............................ Gray...........................

Subs
Bowerman
Liddle/ Buxton
Carver
Mccarten
Atkinson
Dawber


Is looking my best guess at the moment...... without anymore pending arrivals.

Re: Alty Away
 

I know JB loves 4-4-2 but I would go

Turner
Buxton dean Tom lids
Hunty Joycy
Naismith windass mingola
Gray
Going 4-2-3-1
Which can easily rotate to 4-3-3.
Hatfield for me is a number 10,playing off the front man,so 4-4-2 is for him,does a great job dropping into midfield giving you the extra man.
Probably miles away from our starting eleven,but it's fun speculating :)

Re: Alty Away
 

Sorry I would swap Hatfield and Naismith's position.

Other than that, I reckon we have a half decent squad there!

Re: Alty Away
 

Will hatfield be fit fer our opener is whats bothering me a bit.?:confused:

Re: Alty Away
 

Rob Atkinson will be in the first XI against Southend

Re: Alty Away
 

Given his pre season form, i would hope so.:)

Re: Alty Away
 

Is this cryptic clue rob,who's first eleven ?

Re: Alty Away
 

I meant know anything about our other CBS !!!
