CR3 12,729 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Please no injuries to the more irreplaceable players. I’d have rested a few more but maybe that’s what Tynecastles for. BigBearButt and BlueAvenger 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Number5 2,128 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Strong side. Absolutely no chance Lowry starts Wednesday. Gio will use tried and tested players who've not put a foot wrong getting us here. Imagine the uproar if he started Lowry and things went bad, ruin both.

Broxi 11,554 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Really worrying that Roofe isn’t back yet, going to be gutted if we don’t have him for next week, even though I said the same thing for Leipzig Albion 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably won't happen but he is good enough. I want us on the front foot next week and he brings that. I would like to see Ramsey at some stage tonight in a false 9. It looks like Roofe is failing in his battle to be fit. It's got to be balanced. Small details... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM1872 3,744 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Not concerned about Roofe yet. Gio did say he was in a race to be fit for the finals so not expecting to see him until Seville anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowry in the first team squad is a statement of Gio’s intent. No chance Lowry starts final though, would be Davis if Jack was out Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a big ask for even all time greats, never mind one of ours. Won't happen anyway, irrespective of whether the analogy is pish born a blue nose 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vision 16,746 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 20 minutes ago, Vision said: This looks like the squad heading for Seville, with Jack and Roofe in a race against time to get fit. The fact Lowry starts before Ramsey could indicate a surprise inclusion to start in the final if Jack doesn't make it. I'm gonna retract that and change it to involved, I'm trying to think why Gio isn't going all out to get Ramsey as fit as possible by starting him tonight.

shaka 1,705 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 16 minutes ago, Bluekev said: Playing Lowry in the final risks ruining the young lad. One mistake and he could never recover. People keep saying this but what about Lowry's career so far indicates he's going to make a mistake? I'm not saying he should start but just find it confusing that people assume because a player is young he will automatically make a mistake. We could start someone more experienced like Davis, Arfield or Wright for example and they're just as likely or possibly even more likely to make a mistake considering they've made more of them when they've played. This could potentially be the biggest game of Lowry's life and if the only reason he isn't able to play is not because of ability, potential or performances but because of his age, then it seems very unfair.

Big Al 55 9,291 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Stronger team than I expected, need to get balance of rest and match fitness right, it’s not easy. Lowry could play himself into one of the clubs biggest games ever 👍 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LegendofCoop 17,441 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Holy fuck that's a strong team. Mind you, we are still in with a teeny chance of the title Makes sense to play the strongest team tonight and rest for Saturday. Looking forward to seeing Lowry shine!

Exactly and no one would say that we can't risk Goldson in case he makes a mistake that could affect his future career. There just seems to be an assumption that if a player is young, then we can't take a risk because they will automatically make a mistake.
