Connolly stays in the team and Peltier returns with Ralls dropped.

Peltier playing as the holding midfielder?

Amos, Peltier, Bennett, Bamba, Morrison (c), Connolly, Whittingham, Gunnarsson, Hoilett, Harris, Lambert

Shocked really by the line up, but I wonder if Bamba is going to hold with Gunnar

PELTIER CONNOLLY MORRISON BENNETT

Or a 5-4-1

I was thinking the same, Warnock said they'd been working on something different. It's either 5-4-1 or 4-1-4-1.

Bamba won't be the holding midfielder. It'll be Peltier. Bamba is too good at centre back to be moved anywhere else.

[Blue in the Face]

Think you're right. Peltier has played holding mid prior to his Cardiff days.

Can't see many goals in this game.

Surely bamba is centre half. Afterall warnock told him to just kick and head it, strictly defence.

Come on city your in my acca today :coat:

Connoly has been booked.
Gunnar has hit the post and has had 3 other shots - one high, 2 saved.
No-one else seems to be playing.

Wolves losing, we climb to the dizzy heights of 20th

[jon1959]

So far so good.

[Colonel Cærdiffi]

So far so good.

I agree with jon, this game is totally in the bag. We need to start looking toward getting 3 points in the next game.

[Former Labour leader]

Has anyone any idea how we've lined up today. Gunnar seems to be playing further forward and Amos is def goalie. Apart from that I haven't a clue.
