    NUFC vs Wolves

    Ok, so.... Bruce is trying to tell us that he wants to change our style. Right then, in that case, play Fraser and the Saint out wide and put Miggy running in behind Wilson. Drop Lascelles and play Schar who offers a lot more (I know as part of a two he's not the strongest CB but he's better than Lascelles). Dump Shelvey and play Longstaff (although it looks like Shelvey is injured and won't play anyway).

    Over to you, Mrs Doubtfire.

    That would be our most attacking side and, the way we’ve been playing recently, perhaps a bridge too far considering the opposition and that the game is away today.
    TBH if he drops even two of Kraft, Joelephant and Hendrick, I’ll be delighted. But will he? I doubt it.
    I think Wolves would have a field day against Shelvey in our midfield too.
    God, I hate being pessimistic like this before a game.

    I don't think we'll beat them and if last season's Wolves turn up then it could get embarrassing but they're not as fluid an attacking side as they were last season....yet....

    Shelvey is injured last I heard so thank GOD. Means we are not carrying a passenger.

    If Joelinton starts, I swear there are orders from above that he must start as many games as possible.

    Almiron has been one of our most creative players this season and has done it all off the bench. He MUST START!

    Hendrick, maybe he plays central midfield? Don't like him on the wing.

    Might, Saint, Fraser and Murphy all starting. With Wilson up top, surely that means Bruce might have decided to actually have a go at the opposition today.

    Hendrick Schar

    Murphy Almiron ASM
