So Kenlock and Matheson 18:16 - Feb 9 with 2540 views | homer_123 | Two young, fit, healthy athletes not fit or good enough to play a couple of matches in 4 days then. Two of our best performers Saturday dropped. We also, finally, see a decent Judge performance, in part because he was playing in his best position. Odds on he is back out wide tonight. Brilliant. |  |

Looks like Parrott will be playing in a wide role after having such a positive impact centrally on Saturday. Honestly, I really despair with some of the decision making with our management, just leaves you scratching your head in bewilderment. |  |

Parrott was also recalled from Millwall for being played outwide. |  | |  |

This is a different ballgames. Whether it’s the right call remains to be seen, but I can see why it’s been done. |  |

Exactly the same defence had been a joke against Swindon at home. |  | |  |

Ballgames is one adjective, complete bol!ox would be mine. Back to plan a, hoof the ball. Understand the pitch is terrible but this is going to go badly wrong imho. More than happy to proven incredibly wrong at FT. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Put Chambers at centre back then! |  |

So Kenlock and Matheson on 18:50 - Feb 9 with 2195 views | itfcjoe | The pitch is an absolute pudding, Matheson hasn't played in months ahead of Saturday. You can see what he's trying - tight and compact with directness by sticking two up front - people are underestimating just how bad this pitch is tonight, and the conditions |  |

Right. Mourinho wants him to be able to deputise for Harry Kane during his annual injury lay off, not for Son. Spurs are short of strikers and Parrot does not yet have what it takes to fulfill that role, that's why he is on loan. |  | |  |

I also thought Matheson seemed much more comfortable when he was on the better quality side of the PR surface. Matheson also hasn't been playing any competitive matches. Agree this pitch is a lottery; Ferguson wondering about injury risk. Plus its baltic. Just not sure what the plan is ahead of the defence- where will Judge and Bishop actually play? |  |

If they get the win then he’s made the right call, but there’s a lot of changes to the team after an encouraging display with players where let’s face it have been rather disappointing over the last few months including the recent home defeat against Peterborough. [Post edited 9 Feb 2021 19:19]

Or leave the 2 CBs who are starting to form a partnership together. This is a going to be a slog on this pitch |  |

I get the pitch is woeful Joe, but we also know if we keep things tight what happens. Not sure we have the team to play direct without a Daryl Murphy up front and runners around him. Hope I'm wrong and this works out. |  | |  |
