Jones or Forss

A fully fit Forss over Jones any time. I thought Jones lost the ball alot either by wayward passes or poor control. Doesn't use his pace enough to beat his man. His crossing isn't that good either. It's a shame because when he is on it he can be quite good.
 
Jones starts for me. Forss didn’t look match fit, when he came on a jones was bright first half. Plus having Forss on at the end if it goes to penalties, is an advantage
 
If Forss was/is up to speed i think he’d be in ahead of Jones - but is he ? I can see Carrick sticking with Jones and having Forss as sub again. If that’s the case i would be quite tempted to put Dijksteel in there with Jones as they definitely seem to work well together as a more attacking threat, which i think we might need to break Coventry down. It’s going to be interesting to see if Carrick thinks we need to tweak the line up a bit to get past these
 
Not sure how anyone can say to forss didn't look fit? He barely had a touch as we spent nearly the whole time he was on the pitch defending.

I always assume the attack is over when Jones gets the ball. Fast but then looses it most times. Always a nice surprise when he delivers some sort of end product.
 
If Forss can start - he should. Always works hard and has a goal threat. He's one of our unsung heroes this season.
Also think Jones is a decent alternative off the bench with his pace late in games.
 
I can't see forss starting. He can't play 90 minutes effectively, and given we may have extra time, you are kicking off with a baked in substitution. I can't see Carrick going down that route.

I would probably start with a fully fit Forss, but he isn't.
 
I had a dream last night that Forss scored a top bins belter in the 65th minute to put us 1-0 up.

Just a FYI 😁

I think I’d bring him off the bench due to fitness levels. Jones whilst not at his old levels on Sunday, was a constant threat in that first half at least.
 
A fully fit Forrs is first choice so I guess Carrick will know where he's at.

Both will play their part. A good point above about starting Jones and bringing Forrs on as he can take a pen (although doubt Carrick will base his selection around that)
