    Like the team, I’d probably drop Roberston and Job back to make to a 4231, I let the other 4 loose to attack, make nemane and jones more narrow and let the full backs push on.

    I don't like how TAR has been seemingly banished since SM came in - hasn't been given a chance, although we've seen some awful performances in his position. Don't know how SM could have seen enough to exclude a player completely, unless he's going on what he's been told, which wouldn't be good.
    Problem is no journalist will ask the question, although they will ask about Slocombe being on the bench. Maybe they've been tipped off not to ask.

    As for the team selection, don't care would be one answer. But adding a lack of familiarity with a new formation and new roles on top of everything else, doesn't seem good to me. It took him 12 mins to abort it v Crewe.
    SM should succeed or fail doing his thing, play his favoured system but ffs drop players who don't perform and don't bring them back straight away, let them stew and give others a chance

    On current form I'd go along with that starting eleven.

    Chicksen at left-back for me, every day of the week in a back four.

    Is Warner injured? I would have him instead of Rawlinson who seems a little cumbersome and lacking in pace. I would also be tempted not to swap keepers again. Chopping and changing can't help with communication / confidence. A little continuity there would help build understanding... is Slocombe that much of a step up?

    Warner is simply not ready for this level of football. Rawlinson may be slow, but he is an head it and kick it defender, which we need at this moment. As for Slocombe, well i think he is the best of a bad bunch..

    Rawlinson got absolutely rinsed by less than average strikers on Tuesday, he’s the epitome of ok in the national league, no good for the EFL. Similarly Slocombe has been a liability this season. Stone isn’t much better, but better he undoubtedly is.

    Does anyone know if McGoldrick is back for tomorrow, hasn’t been great lately but I think we did miss him Tuesday night.

    Wonder if the forgotten man Bajrami is near fit, seem to see him training on Videos, can't be any worse than what we've had playing for us, could use him in midfield or as a defender. Don't get the Warner thing as he's not really impressed in matches so far.

    He is out for the season did his ACL.

    He will be running and then move onto ball work on his own but I’d guess he is not in any contact training yet.

    He has been a big miss this season as a squad player for sure and can play a few positions, but as I said about Scott we have no idea how he will return after this injury same as Palmer it is not an easy injury to fully recover from.

    As long as Cameron is no where near the first 11…I don’t mind!
    Tbf, I’d probably go with that 11. JoB will need replacing after 60 mins probably.
