    Team for Saturday

    OK, then - is Armstrong fit enough to start? The team-plan and tactics won't be a problem for him, because of last year, but has he done a proper, full preparation?
    If he's in, the team probably picks itself at the moment:
    Raya
    Nyambe Lenihan Mulgrew Williams
    Bennett Smallwood Evans
    Dack Armstrong
    Graham.

    Anyone foresee any surprises? Bell for Williams, perhaps?
    And who will start if Armstrong isn't ready - Samuel or Palmer?
    One remote possibility is 4-4-2, with an extra midfielder, and Dack as support striker, but there is evidence that TM isn't keen on that formation.

    I really am not sure if he will start. He is fit, and has been playing pre-season. How match fit he is? I don't know.
    I think he will start as sub tomorrow and come on.
    I am unsure if Bell will play or not? I thought Williams was slightly caught out for their first goal last week. He got caught the wromng side and was under the ball when it arrived. You need your full back winning the header over the winger.
    Talking of the winger, it was Edwards who we really where interested in signing. Right side, and caused us the most problems last season. When we played Peterborough at home, he was a real dangerman. I would quite liked to have got him. Anyway, he gave Williams a torrid time down at Portmand road. That said, Williams set up Dacks goal.
