BP1960 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Matt Chambers @Matt_Chambers_ 2m2 minutes ago George Elokobi out for up to two weeks after a setback. Can see Genseric Kusunga moving to middle tomorrow with Brian Wilson back in. #oafc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youngen Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Kasunga, Brian Wilson has to come back in at RB. Kusunga is liable for a massive balls up though, but also a goal at the other end! Dieng looks steady enough, plays football, but doesnt inspire me against long balls. Kusunga to CB tomorrow I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unsworthlatic Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Kusunga every time. Dieng worries me every time the ball goes near him Are you having a laugh? He's not that bad, he's a good passer of the ball when he settles into the game, the game against Coventry he was excellent, he also provided a clearance off the line and a few vital blocks away at Chesterfield second half Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kusunga looked Yaya Toure ish towards the end of the game against Coventry moving forward from right back. Am I right that he crossed for Ibhere's goal? Quite imptressed with the big man on Tuesday! - Could he play a central midfield role against more physical teams? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he had a great game the other night and I'd keep with the same team if i'm being honest, no need to rush injured players back. It was a great cross for Ibehre's goal and yes he could play centre midfield except our midfield are winning many battles this season so not needed as of yet, with us playing like a diamond formation, kelly, jones, winchester, tidser, dayton and philiskirk are more than enough for options but yes I do believe he could do a job in defensive midfield Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaddy_Ender Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Wilson in at RB and Kusunga to replace Dieng at CH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fruitygoo Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 IF wilson is 100% then he has to come in as he's been outstanding this season.....but, as dieng has played in some good results recently, it would be harsh to drop him. Same two CB for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Postman Matt Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 To leave a fit Brian Wilson on the bench would be a travesty he is 7.5/10 every game best right back we have had for some time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The argument is though how can you drop anybody when we beat Coventry 4-1, tough one but a very good problem to have. I personally wouldn't change a winning side but I would be happy to see Brian Wilson slot back in and either Kusunga or dieng at centre back, we have a good squad!!

aaronoafc Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Kusunga in for Dieng at CB and Wilson at RB if fit. Think Kusunga will suit the more physical game than Dieng. Plus I can see us getting a lot of free kicks/corners tomorrow and Kusunga is great from attacking set pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave_Og Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Weren't we panicking that J Wilson's contract is up at the end of the season? Chron says that another year is automatically triggered after he plays a certain number of games which it seems fair to assume he can't be far off achieving.

(Premier League thoughts) I never said that at all, when players are playing with knocks this can lead to a longer term injury, something we need to try and avoid, the team the other night did a very good job against an average Coventry side. We have ability throughout the squad, I would stick to a team that won 4-1 in midweek (unless any injuries have occurred) Bradford I have said on the other thread will pose a threat due to their style of play, it will be a very hard game but I am more than confident whatever team we play, whether wilson comes back in or not that we can get three points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's great news He's a stand out defender is this league. He's so composed and has combined and played well with all the different defensive partners he's played with this season . At the beginning of the season I really thought we'd miss Lockwood but for the moment at least , we're doing fine. Wilson reminds me with his composure a little of Paul Futcher and one size Edited October 24, 2014 by stevesidg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diego_Sideburns Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 George out indefinitely! He has a small growth of bone within a muscle. Tidser and Morgan-Smith also out. http://www.oldham-chronicle.co.uk/news-features/10/oldham-athletic-news/88662/elokobi-return-put-on-hold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
