Would love to be in a position where we could afford to tell him to bolt but it's an absolute no brainer to get him in now if he's up for it. Good news. That article is shambolic though. Not sure what the "Australian FA" have to do with Austria. And thank God we don't have to worry about fire breathing defender "Aleksandr Dragons". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No_Problemo Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Absolutely delighted with that.... levels above our other options. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Feel it would be harsh if Dykes was dropped. Delighted to have Adams as an option though, great work from Clarke (and dare I say Stu Armstrong) to convince him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshmallo Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Get Armstrong playing off Adams. They train together every day and have both done well in a top league this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dykes and Adams gives us the option to play two up top at times. They would be excellent together and a real handful for any defence. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Adams straight in the 11 for me. Dykes is struggling in the championship and Adams is doing well in the EPL, it’s a no brainer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not bullying Grant Hanley in the championship... Or any defenders in the championship really. He's really, really, really went off form. I appreciate he's done tremendous for us, and I'm shocked he's not done better but I do worry how he'll do next time he rocks up with us, with him being so off form for a few months I worry he won't be as effective as before. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 16 minutes ago, Baptiste Bourgeois said: Only 4 forwards in the Championship have won more aerial duels per game than Dykes. He's clearly still very dominant in the air. He's won more because he gets targeted by more. Using overall amounts when different players play different roles in different systems is weird. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can be of some use, but they can also be incredibly misleading. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aufc Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 It would actually be pretty good if we played armstrong, mcginn and fraser all together with up front. Ryan jack as the holding midfielder. Use andy robertson as an attacking left wing back. When he attacks it leaves a back four with the additional sitting midfielder. He has the pace and energy to get back. O’donnell js pretty average going forward so you would have fraser dropping off to this wing to offer some width as and when. Mcginn, armstrong and mcginn all running off adams seems pretty decent* i may playing FM too much and these tactics may not work 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a naw bad right foot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
