Christie.
Hendrick, Bryson and Baird will have to fight for the shirt now.
It will be harsh on Cyrus if Baird comes straight back in to the starting xi on Saturday after a good game v Burnley.
Will be interesting to see how PC goes with this one. Nice headache to have with the strength of our squad now.
I'd probably give Christie the start. See how he goes & bring Baird on if needed.
Thoughts anyone??
Similar problem in midfield with Bryson when he's match fit. Good times. COYR!

Unless we continue to drop points, in which case they may find they get their chances earlier than expected.
Christie for me, also think Bryson will be first choice when he's back fit!
Christie starting for the rest of the season. Time to change captain as they need to be starting every game. Martin isn't who I'd give the armband to. Arise Mr. Shackell...
Can't see Bryson getting back into the team. Johnson is the same type of player as him and he's looked quality so far. Unless we change formation.
Can't believe I'm saying this.....Christie to start even though he still our weakest link....would prefer a good loan at right back tbh
You are all mental. Christie to start for the rest of the season, screw that.
MK Dons suffer a 6-0 hammering to Southampton at home in the Capital One Cup tonight, so should boost our odds on picking up 3 points on saturday.
"You are all mental. Christie to start for the rest of the season, screw that."
With two decent backs, left and right, who could defend, press, attack and be positionally aware, we would walk this league. We have no one meeting the criteria and we should have. We've known this for several seasons.
Christie is "Bambi on ice". He's fast and athletic but that's it. He had a decent game Monday but there were still the signs he's not up to it.
I think we are all surprised when either back actually puts in a good cross.
Personally I thought he had a bad game. Every attack petered out as soon as it reached him ( but at least he got in good positions right?)
