Team to face crewe

[robinrover]

It's a tricky one as we dont want to lose momentum but at the same time not to risk to many influential players

Gk leutweller
Rb caddis
CB Wharton
CB ward
Lb Hart
Lm gladwin
Cm Harper
Cm whittingham
Rm Rankin Costello
Fw Graham
Fw Samuel

This team would provide a good balance while enabling fringe players to have another chance to enter tony Mowbrays thoughts.

Robin - that's strange! Yours is almost exactly the team I was going to suggest. Are Gladwin and Conway both fit again for that LM role? I haven't seen anything about that on the BRFC site in the last couple of days.
I doubt that TM will go into a game without a defensive midfielder, however, so we might see Evans alongside either Whittingham or Harper.
To be honest, I think Whittingham should play, as we still haven't seen him at his best, and this might be a good game for him to be more ambitious.
I also suspect that Nuttall will play, but I'd like to see the Graham-Samuel partnership in action too.
