Holy
KVY Chambers Woolf Kenlock
Downes Dozzell Bishop
Lankester Norwood Dobra
KVY obvs not fit so I would play Donacien until then and if he is sold then Nsiala or McGuiness with Chambo move to RB. Woolf is our future and the most complete defender in the squad. He should be given the best opportunity to flourish for our long term future, that means alongside Chambers.
Ward is being targeted as a weakness,uch lock Kenlock used to be. Neither are great options but we might as well go for the academy choice that might still have a future in the game. Not a critical pick though really.
The midfield 3 must be 1st choice. All academy and a great balance
Lankester hasn't set the world on fire but he wad returning from a long time out and playing a different role each week in a team underperforming. Put him wide right forward with a remit to get close to Norwood and tuck in.
Dobra again is the future, he did well when he came in. Play him and again give him the freedom to play.
Norwood is our best striker. His hassling of defenders give us so much. He needs the support of other players around him, the young legs of JL and Dobs gives him that
Sell Jackson and Edwards, they are our only assets and don't add enough to keep the youth out. Sears and Judge are versatile back up but if we can move them on then do it.
This is a real blueprint for the club. |  |

Would you have Nydam at left back if he was fit? |  |

Would like to but long time out and a position he hasn't played that much. I am a fan though | |

Dobra been back training with the U23s all week even though he had started 5 of previous 6, you couldn’t make it up |  |

The whole out in the cold then into the line up and back out in the cold again has been a theme for many players under Lambert.
I don't expect that line up ever to be a Lambert line up but it should be what Evans and O'Neill are telling him they expect. It isn't just about this season it is about our long term future but it reality we wouldn't be any worse short term either | |

You lost me at Kenlock.
Is this a blueprint for getting promoted?
In which case, Kenlock, Lankester and Dobra haven't done anywhere near enough to say that they should be in the first 11.
KVY has got to be first choice but could be some way off being fully fit and in form.
Woolf is too relaxed. He needs Terry Butcher to coach more intensity and fire into his game.
And Norwood is our best striker but looks injury prone still. And Bishop to that category.
So no chance really. Too many things have to come together which they won't. [Post edited 17 Jan 2021 15:35]

I’d agree with that other than Dobra.
Not sure he’s done enough in the games he’s featured to be a nailed on starter yet.
Edwards has been our best winger so would be crazy to leave him out.
Lambert has got the minerals to trust that much youth anyway, will always play Ward, will always play Judge as long as he is here. |  |

Gibbs trained with the first team once or twice before is debut, and hasn’t been seen since
Even starker now when 23s and 18s train at different times so they don’t see each other around the place | |

Edwards barely touched the ball yesterday and will gone at the end of the season. His performances seen to get better the longer he was out injured. | |

There is probably a covid issue in mixing between teams as well
It isn't the platform for the future to use the kids this way. We have to create a sustainable pathway, not use them and discard them when we feel like it | |

Edwards is only just back form injury. Even with that lay off he's still our top scorer and assister.
Your obsession is weird, did he snog your missus or something? |  |

I'm not even convinced that he had an intentional assist. A couple of them were miscontrols that bounced to a team mate | |

Not really it is fairly standard for division 3 teams especially when the assets have short contracts and aren't stand out players | |

Seriously? Lambert seems determined to break this kid come hell or high water. Play him as a no.10 in behind one or even two strikers and attack teams and I think he would flourish. A wideman with too many defensive responsibility is not his game. At worst, he should be on the bench as a game changing 20 minute sub. Lambert has to go. |  |

Started 5 of the last 6 and shown absolutely nothing | | | |

I still see Dobra as an impact sub at this stage in his career.
Just give him the last 30mins to run around like a mischievous loon. |  |

I'll tell you what Fishers, you've got me with all of that.
It would be a long and bumpy road but at least its building something. Key thing is though, a certain somebody has to go. |  | | |

I’d have thought top goal scorer might be classed a “standout player”. Also, don’t we have around 20 players who’s contracts expire in the summer. | | | |

We now just need a team to lead it. Dyer to be involved because he is the passion and the example of what you can become. I'd want Butch there in some capacity as a coach.
How about Cook as manager, dyer as assistant and butch as coach? | |

Not sure Dobra is ready to be starting every week and Kenlock is really hopeless. Ideally I'd like to see us bring a new left back in as that's a real problem area still, Ward started the season well but since his injury he's been toss and doesn't look up to much. Lankester on the right and Edwards on the left gives you players naturally wanting to come inside and get close to Norwood and we know Edwards can score goals at this level. |  |

What do you reckon? Do you think if Lambert wanted one more body in first team training he could sort it? | |
