This is just it... All the talk of Solly potentially being third choice RB now or Pratley / Bonne looking impressive and Pearce off the boil needs to be taken with a pinch of saltwmcf123 said:

As it was only in a first half back three when Pearce wasn't on the pitch, it worked well. Pratley appeared much fitter than last season with some impressive running. Defended well and contributed to the passing game.wmcf123 said:
Just the 5-0 to Blackburn ? Why on earth would Pratley be in defence ahead of Pearce?golfaddick said:1st half better than the 2nd......Taylor looked uninterested for most of it & bar the shot that hit the woodwork he didnt look like scoring. Disappointed with Aneke too.....but its early days so let's just say he was ring rusty. As someone up thread mentioned it's the midfield that we urgently need bodies. Only Morgan really shined out there today and the rest treated the ball like is was a hot potatoe..
From what I saw today I'd be starting at Blackburn with:
Phillips
Dijikstel
Lockyer
Pratley
Sarr
Page
Morgan
Aneke
JFC
A.N. Other
Taylor.
That is Bowyer going with 5 at the back & using last years players rather than anyone else.
This might hurt some people but after today I would say Solly is 3rd choice right back........and not too many of the U23's are good enough to step up. Doherty was ok but nothing special as were the 2 "dreads" in midfield 1st half.
It was nothing more than a fitness run out, the fact we've got everyone through the match (with Forster-Caskey getting minutes after his foot problem) is the bigger achievement at the moment13 - 
            
Is that Anthony Cook, Regan Charles-Cook's elder brother?Redhenry said:
Good post. Cook was in the Dagenham promotion squad when he was 18/19 but then had some personal issues. Was head and shoulders above the Welling team.0 - 
            True enough but Pratleys improved fitness and Bonne showing drive and determination are positives in themselves regardless of the level - with the Rat in charge both might end up more important than maybe ideal.3

            Bit lucky on the no injury front when the welling no 8 attempted to decapitate Morgan,and the woefully skill lacking no 4 twice caught players with poor tackles from behind.Why cant these guys just accept that they are not at the same level and just enjoy the challenge without trying to be the hard man.1

            Very true,but they wont impress many people by attempting to cripple people.Very impressed with one or two of the Welling forwards though,Dijksteel got a bit of a going over in the second half.0
