I’d personally like to see Bostock deployed in more of an 8 role, rather than the QB. I thought Robertson played that expertly on Tuesday. I think forcing Bostock to receive the ball a little higher up the pitch may encourage him to play forward with a bit more regularity. He’s got immense quality and that may give us an extra dimension rather than two ball carrying 8’s in Austin and Crowley.

I do understand the ‘if it ain’t broke don’t fix it’ adage, but like to be pragmatic too

Thoughts?
I think a 0-3 away win merits an unchanged team.
The shape used in that game is perfect for a must-win home game (to keep even a remote play-off chance)

Personally, I don't think JB is nimble enough to play further forward - he's a holding midfielder, deep-lying central midfielder and that's it.
