That could be a winning combination, as much as I rate Mass and I am by no means arguing for him to be dropped, the idea of having Morsy and Travis playing alongside each other is also interesting to me given both of their qualities. |  | | |  |

The way Travis looked at home straight away in the Sunderland game made me feel more hopeful we can finish second. This time last year it took Broadhead and Hirst a few games to bed in and Luongo wasn't fully fit straight away. Travis and Sarmiento have hit the ground running. |  |

The two ideal times to have used that pairing would have been Leeds away, when Travis was still at Blackburn, and Leicester away, which Morsy is banned for. |  |

You don’t think it might be quite a useful combination for Southampton and WBA, or indeed Middlesborough or Hull if they go at it all guns blazing? |  | | |

I think we need to be more attacking in both of those games whereas the Leeds and Leicester games were more of a 'don't lose' scenario.
edit. I think they will make an excellent combination when we are trying to see a game out when we have a narrow lead. [Post edited 16 Jan 2024 13:04]

My own edit - we may see them when we draw Man City in the FA Cup Semi Final | | | |

A Blackburn fan posted after Travis joined us …….I pity any team facing Travis and Morsy from now on ……he obviously sees how strong that option is for us . | | | |

Different playing styles, but its a bit like having Magilton and Holland in midfield. Two captains in the engine room. Great for driving the team on.
Also very happy with Mass though. |  |

That was because we didn’t have Travis and Morsy playing | | | |

I've had a thought before about alternative cup finals. Could've been Town v Wolves that year. 78 could've been Orient v WBA. Doesn't quite have the same ring to it. |  |

I saw some posting the other day about the Travis debut saying they were a little underwhelmed or it wasn’t as good as some were making out . Personally I thought he was superb with only 3 days worth of training behind him in our system . I think the system for the most perhaps went out of the window ala Morsy receiving the back from Hladky or Woofie but overall,again IMHO , I thought he was superb .
The two of them together would be quite interesting . As Mullet says two different styles but essentially two winners , both leaders , keen to put their foot in and front footed in terms of breaking the lines
Mass for me , as much as I love thru guy has looked a little out of soughts recently , along with Broady , so competition for places with Sarmiento and Travis can only be good
Now let’s get that striker !!! |  |

Don't see this at all as they seem to be very similar players.
I would have thought Travis & Luogo or Travis & Taylor a better combo. Or of course the original and the best Morsy & Luongo. |  | | |

Will be a fantastic pairing. The difference right there. |  |

I know everyone’s inclination is to jump to starter pairings but the real strength comes at 60-70 minutes; knowing Morsy or Mass/Travis can got at it then you have the ability to make a change or when you’ve got Sat-Tues-Sat and legs are more tired; and you have the freshness of Mass/Travis to step into things.
We know all three will continue to collect bookings but Morsy is now especially on a tight rope. You then also have Taylor getting minutes and building his championship experience (or Ball assuming he isn’t moved in window).
The strength for me is this depth. | |

The 3 of them will all get game time injuries suspended tired whatever all good players I wish we had 3 strikers for two positions like this area. | | | |

That combination would allow Morsy to maraud even more, which is no bad thing in my book! |  | | |
