Robertson was on the original team sheet, with Dio on the bench, looks like a last minute switch (maybe injured in the warm-up?).
Robertson's still on the bench, so not an injury, last minute tactical switch. Presumably the tactic is to confuse Pulis by not putting a left back on the pitch.

Yeah, I expect us to sign a WB by Friday. Or loan one, or whatever. Interesting he's opted not to utilise Tymon, who would be the more natural choice for a LB.
That is probably due to how well we have been playing and it seems robertsons been pulled at the last minute Big gamble by phelan Philips is on top form at the moment and could run clucas ragged
Does Phelan not remember earlier in the season were he moved Clucas to LWB and he got run ragged against an awful, out-of-form Watford? \it was painful to watch.
Exactly ... you trip across a formula which has allowed much more positivity if not end result and then think lets try something different and keep Coco in goal..
I just don't get it, resting Robbo and moving Clucas from the position where he's most effective. What sense does that make?
