TEAM NEWS: "We face some limitations for this game. Tom Cairney is out, Kebano & Ojo came back with some problems and won't be available." :wow:
Can't say that Mollo or Graham were bad pick ups now - we're hurting. I hope Fonte is alright, heard some news he could be out.
Some big losses there but will still be a very strong team we put out for me

Wow, how strong does that team look even without Cairney. Cisse deserves a start so I hope he gets one, he's a decent player and was unlucky not to score.
Just confirmed on the offal that Fonte is out as well
so with that in kind I'd go with
Button
Fredricks Kalas Ream Odoi
McDonald
Norwood Johansen
Ayite R.Sessegnon
Kamara
Although I am also tempted to play one of the new wingers and put Ayite upto instead of Karama
We're so fk'd. These injuries are coming thick and fast. Cairney, Kebano, Ojo, Soares (still not fit), and Fonte just before we play the league leaders. Good thing we have a little bit of depth. AK47 better make himself a hero tomorrow.

Bit hyperbolic. No Cardiff players (Zohore aside) scare me - I still back our squad over their's anyday. I still think we are the favourites.

I agree with your starting eleven, but on the bench I don't see the need for Djalo AND Madl.
I suggest some of you go back to the "Ipswich team in" thread.
So many worried we were going to lose. Have some faith. Its still probably 9 of the starting XI that would have been anyway.

I think we need to start Kamara. Otherwise, we'd be be forced to start both our deadline day signings who have only trained for a few days according to slav. I'd choose to start Mollo as he seems to be the only healthy right side winger we have. Ayite is proven on the left.

As opposed to starting Ayite up top which Slav has done in the past. I don't think I've ever seen him play on the right though.

As much of a right winger as a striker, fella.
Also from Cottagers confidential:
Fulham have signed Floyd Ayite for a reported 1.7 million pounds from SC Bastia from Ligue 1 in France. He has mostly played on the left side of midfield, but recently has seen some action uptop. He has his highest WhoScored ratings when he has played on either the left or
right wing. He scored 8 goals and had 3 assists in 30 appearances last season in Ligue 1 which is a good return for a winger. He should slot in well at the vacant left wing position left by Kacaniklic.

That's fine. He's probably capable of playing on the right and may have produce a couple of years ago in france from the right, but he's a left sided player so why gamble? Plus, if Sess is on the wing, then we'd have to move Odoi or Ream out of position as well. And Ream isn't going to contribute much going forward. Occams Razor I say.

Odoi plays on the Right, and Ayite on the left. With so many injuries/uncertainties, I just think playing players in their natural positions is needed if our team is going to have any chemistry at all.

Odoi spent almost an entire season as an LB before he joined us. He played there against Wycombe, Ipswich (sub) and Norwich... so 3 out of the 7 games (including two as CB!!!) - admittedly some of these were subs appearances. He would add a defensive dimension that Sess doesn't.
But is Ream ready to go ,didn't he play in the States the other night. At best he will be suffering from Jet Lag.
Also I thought there was doubt about Johanson being 100%.

Jetlag? He's a professional player who does this after every international break. I did Tough mudder the day I got back from Mexico after a 48 hour delay. With sports science it isnt a problem.

He was an unused sub midweek.

We're so fk'd. These injuries are coming thick and fast. Cairney, Kebano, Ojo, Soares (still not fit), and Fonte just before we play the league leaders. Good thing we have a little bit of depth. AK47 better make himself a hero tomorrow.
It's early in the season and we have just had a 2 week break. I agree with you we you, how on earth have we ended up in this state? I said all along that I didn't rate the planning of our pre-season proramme. Not saying it was solely to blame but it didn't seem to help our squad hit the ground running.

well when you consider Fonte got injured last game, Ojo on England duty and was not here pre season, Soares in Portugal and Kebano has been ok till going on international duty I'm not sure how pre season equates to any of that apart from Cairney.
I must say MJs team looks fine to me but I would have AK on the bench.
I can't see why people are panicking about injuries. We have a much stronger squad than last year imo. Cover all over the pitch.
As long as they play for the shirt, we will be fine.
And I expect Slav to sort that side of it.
COYW!
Ream will be glad to return to a team where he'll have familiarity with and confidence in the teammates to the left and right of him. The back line for the USMNT is suffering from 1. player personnel changes when changes aren't needed; 2. no player personnel changes when changes ARE needed; an 3. lack of familiarity with new manager and his staff in the short time the players have to be together and try to gel. Too much tinkering with the back line. Too little in-game changes when needed. So whether its
Fred, Kalas, Ream, Odoi, or
Fred, Kalas, Odoi, Ream, or
Fred, Kalas, Ream Sess, or
Fred Odoi Ream Sess,
it will work.
