Re: Blues' FA Cup tie picked for TV
paul802dIanTHow are you playing?
Should we be worried?
In a word no.
After going down to the National League we had a complete rebuild largely build on youth. Players falling out of league youth academies; u23s or players from lower leagues - Step 6/7! - who looked good prospects and worth a punt.
So as you'd expect we're hugely inconsistent. Even within games.
We can put the ball in the back of the net (at this level) but we can ship some goals and if you put out anyone with some firepower we reckon we could be in all sorts of trouble.
The feeling at our end is by and large this game is a bit too early for them all. They still need a bit of time to gel and learn their trade. But its all heading in the right direction.
So you'd win 99 games out of 100. But...
If we use our Johnstones Paint teams as a benchmark for what we might put out against you lot (with respect; it sounds bad but we’ve put out strong teams in that competition so far), you’d probably be looking at something like
Sampsted Klarer Davies Cochrane
Leonard Iwata
Anderson Wright Yokoyama
May
Which, with respect to Sutton as you’re not mugs, should be an “all sorts of trouble” situation that you mentioned.
