I think Heaton is now eligible to play (and fit)?
I'm still of the view that our full-backs could do a job on the flanks paired up with Taylor and Elmo as the wingers just weren't cutting it, leaving Jack to play in front of Luiz & SJM. Elmo can cross it well and Targett links up well with Jack when he can get forward.
Heaton is defo out, probably til August unfortunately mate, DS said t’other day. I’d love 3-5-2 but we know that aint gonna happen. Really believe that Drinkwater will play a part. He’s as fit as a butcher's dog now, on par with the rest of the squad. DS went out on a limb to back JT’s recommendation. Only time will tell.
What I want is different to how DS will go. He’ll go;
Nyland
Gilbert
Mings
Konsa
Targett
SJM
Marvellous
Drinkwater
El Ghastly
Samatta (Lone striker)
Jack
DS calls it 4-3-3, reality is it’s 4-5-1 pretending to be 4-3-3.
Give jack a free role n don’t stick him out on wing n can see samatta scoring tonight..
5 subs will help and give McGinn some game time as we need him
Lineup:-
Nyland

Davis hold up play is critical in this side, press and get the numbers in the final third for CH to bag a couple (I hope).
I like the line up. I do hope Samatta comes on and gets a goal or two tho
Well its a point, sheff despite that goal that wsnt were there for the taking
3 wins 3 draws 3 defeats and we will survive.
3 wins

Good performance, I was impressed with Hourihane’s fitness levels.
Usual suspects performed to Par. Not wanting to dig out players by name for a good all round team effort, but one was ghastly, one still can’t catch under pressure, and another should’ve stayed in his house.
Most will be better for that run out, hopefully more to come.
