BearcatSA Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Fitness is one thing, mental sharpness and game.speed decision making is another. That was lacking vs Uruguay, especially in the second half. However, as mentioned, he's a valuable poacher. Maybe the Uruguay game provided him with the insight he needs to be mentally prepared for that opening match in spite of his club situation.

jhoops__ Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 I can’t see starting him v Belgium in all honesty. David between Tajon and Phonzie looks like a no brainer to me… Obinna, Xavier., costarg and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David between Tajon and Phonzie looks like a no brainer to me… Gave you the like because yeah, Davies-David-Buchanan is clearly the way to go. But can I see him starting? Umm...yes, I can. Not saying I would start him, but Herdman has thrown curve balls in the past. He started Larin over David against Mexico and he scored 2 goals in arguably the biggest WCQ win in our history. He also started both games last window, though Tajon was still recovering so hard to conclude much from that. Put it this way, I want Davies-David-Buchanan to start, and if I were to bet I would say that's what we do. But can I see Herdman surprising us with Larin? Yes...I can. johnyb and costarg 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said earlier, when I was watching the last match, he was name dropped amongst the other absentees, but they only really spoke about the extent of Noa Lang's injury, so I wasn't sure if they were listing all the injured players or if they were including healthy scratches. Now we know. It's somewhat good news he's not being left off because he's out of favor. At the same time, it's not good that he's injured this close to world cup. We are literally a month away from the start of the competition. Edited October 19, 2022 by Obinna WestHamCanadianinOxford 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narduch Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 I'm pretty sure Herdman already hinted in the last window that Larin will be a starter. Buchanan will start in the spot Hoilett started at in the Qatar match Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buchanan will start in the spot Hoilett started at in the Qatar match Not sure anything is set in stone because starting line ups are circumstantial. If we put aside unforeseen fitness concerns, the starting line-up will probably be circumstantial for tactical reasons. Herdman may have hinted that Larin is likely to start, but start all 3? I am not sure that is guaranteed. I am not even sure David will start all 3. The only players who will start every match are Davies, Eustaquio and Borjan - in my opinion.

Stryker911 Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 His team didn't have the full compliment of subs. So he would for sure be on the bench if he wasn't injured. At this point I wish he simply wasn't good enough for the lineup rather than the alternative of an injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordan Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 I’m sure he’ll figure out his way into the lineup, like the struggle he had at Besiktas and forced himself in there Weng 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when Tajon was injured it didn't seem serious (from memory but not much info) and then radio silence from the club for a long time. Hope it isn't one of those.
