Roche

Artell, Bentley, Adams

Wainwright Wilson

Panther, Craney

Duffy

Mullin Twiss/Jevons


Could work.

I'm trying to find space for Duffy in a free role which I thought he did well in pre-season. Without the likes of him and Wainwright we may be quite solid (as we were with Drummy in there at Chesterfield) but - apart from Wilson - lack much ability to go past our markers and create lots of chances.

I think he might getting pushed out of the first 11 because of the new players. Here's my line up:
Roche
Moss Bentley Haining Adams Wilson
Duffy Panther Craney
Mullin
Jevons

Stanley and duffy can't be compared, completely different styles of play and they play in different positions. If I had to pick on in the free role behind the strikers (neither stanleys or duffys natural position) i would definately pick duffy for his pace and creativity.

Nice! Personally I'd play Twissy instead of Jevons. Sammy's finally woken up to the benefits of Twissy as an out-and-out front man.

I disagree. We may have bought him as a winger but, at this level, I don't think he has the pace over more than ten yards to succeed there. What he has got is quick feet and the skill to unlock a defence prome precisely that position - just behind a front man or two.

I think that IS his natural position and he's shown his best stuff for us when he's played there (IMO) given a free role. The only thing is, Craney does well there also.

It may be that Duffy has to really fight for a place now, otherwise he'll be used off the bench.

Red Shrimp has it bang on - its just a case of how you set that 11 up - I'd play 4-1-3-2 with Panther in front of a flat back four, Craney, Duffy and Twiss helping Panther when we don't have the ball and pushing on to support Jevons and Mullins up front when we do- if Jim and Will form a partnership and we become more solid at the I think we could really cause teams problems with that line up - IMO this is the best Shrimps side I have ever seen and I still think we will be in the mix for the play offs - couple of wins - even lucky ones and the confidence will bring belief and this team is good enough to give Morecambe thier highest ever league finish - bring it on :D

He was reportedly out for 6 weeks after the Burton game 2 weeks ago. I suspect however with a couple of rubdowns from his Mrs. he will soon perk up! :oops:
