Yeah long term absolutely not. Tim is in a rich vein of form though and one would hope we've brought Armstrong back to play.

We would miss Garner in the middle dont get me wrong, but it's a home game against Brentford. I want to see us play on the front foot, and having Garner at right back has been transformational for us in that regard previously this season.

Not saying that line up will cost us the game, but it certainly kills a lot of pre-game excitement and anticipation.

Tim has been playing well with Garner next to him, I honestly think Garner is pivotal to the team and its performances. Garner is a fantastic footballer, he can do everything and does it all at a decent pace, strikes the ball hard and is needed in the engine room for me. I get that Keane back in brings out the fear in most of us but it also means more height in both boxes, Moyes will always look for that when he can. Let’s hope Moyes has got this right

Rohl out doing the warmup with the starting 11 and not with the subs.

For avoidance of doubt, there are also the full names 11 warming up

Garner temporary right back with Armstrong/Rohl covering midfield with Tim is preferable to me.

We'll prob be alright today as Brentford not a massively pacy side, but frustrating to see Keane coming back in when we look so much better with Jake and Tarks as a pairing imo.

I get your point but I wouldn’t want to lose garner from CM. He has been immense

Defo winning today if we start 12

Leeds have done us half a favour. Time for us to drive it home now.

And so the conversion begins. Surrender to it; resistance is futile. Once Everton has touched you....

McNeil. FFS

 

[EcclesEFC]

How’s the weather?

Not too bad, that's because I'm still on concourse Dreading going up to our seats though. I've got that many layers on, didn't think I'd fit through the turnstile!

 

[TheBigIguana]

McNeil as the #10. Something I’ve wanted to see for a long time.

Could be the game has come too quick for Patterson given lack of minutes.

I think so. I wouldn't be surprised to see him come on for Keane in the second half depending on how things are looking
