    With three new fresh injuries ruling out three more more players out this season how will we line up tomorrow?

    http://www.safc.com/news/20110506/triple-injury-blow-for-bruce_2256213_2354201

    The team I'd like to see.

    Mig
    Bardo/Onouha/Mensah/Adams
    Hendo/Colback/Steed/Knott
    Sessegnon
    Noble

    Plenty of youngsters in there and can always bring some more experience on if/when things go pear shaped.

    However the team I think Bruce will pick

    Mig
    Onouha/Anton/Mensah/Bardo
    Elmo/Hendo/Colback/Muntari
    Steed
    Sess

    Reading what bruce says I cant see the youngsters getting a start but coming off the bench again with 15 mins left when we are 2-0 down....

    Hope i'm wrong but I dont expect much tomorrow whatever team is put out.

    Thoughts?

    Was hoping for a hard fought draw tomorrow until I heard of even more injuries. This means that Bruce will have to play the youngsters and maybe they'll have enough of a shock factor to maybe nick it. I can't see Muntari playing for us again to be honest so it'll be either Bolo or more than likely a young un.
    Feeling optimistic about tomorrow for some reason and I haven't had a drink yet, we've got nothing to lose for me so give the fringe players and young uns a run out they can't do any worse than the first team last week.

    With more injuries it gets harder and harder to pick a team.I'll guess this---

    Mig
    Elmo/Onuoha/Mensah/Bardsley
    Hendo/Steed/Zendon/Colback
    Sess
    Noble

    Think Bruce will start with the experienced players and then bring a few youngsters on

    Assuming that there's any left standing? If it was me picking the team, I would start Lynch & Noble in a 4-4-2. 9 goals each for the reserves this season and God knows how many goals each for the youth team? Both have to be worth a punt.

    Agree - what have we got to lose? I think most would say we are unlikely to win another game this season so let give the young ones a chance. They will gain valuable experience and we will see if they will be any good in the future.
