    That's quite impressive for a Friday night game being shown on Sky. COYRs

    For some reason, quite excited about tonight. Hoping for a good response after the cup disappointment. Beautiful, crisp Friday night...atmosphere should be cracking, especially with good away support.

    A quick reminder to get your predictions in if you haven't already.

    Hmmm, Dozzell. Hopefully because Amos isn’t up to another match so soon yet. Can he really free up Johansen though? Think I’d prefer Ball, though very few would agree with me.

    I wish we had just one slightly quicker and more mobile CB, more a rapid sweeper style, who can turn and chase the ball over the top with a fair chance of catching it.

    Looks like Dozzell has got that difficult DCM role tonight while we wait for Field's return. Unless Jacobsen plays there with Dozzell further forward.

    Barbet is close to that I think.

    He might be faster than the other two but he’s far from quick based on what I’ve seen this season. All our CBs are on the slow side and turn like an oil tanker. It’s why we are so vulnerable to the ball over the top which induces buttock clenching panic in them and in the fans in the stadium because it’s so ****ing predictable.

    It’s why I like 4-3-3 above all other line ups. But now we don’t have any proper full backs so four at the back is risky.

    I'd prefer Ball alongside Johansen too.

    Will said on Tuesday, "imagine Ned in the back 3?".
    No pace in there whatsoever.

    Think Barbet is quick over short distances', like when he gets over from the left to block a breakthrough on our Right, the one on Tuesday one of many this season.

    Field also used to help with this.

    Jesus just saw that our next 8 games (Inc this one) are on Sky either via red button or the main game.

    I'm wondering whether it may be a bit of a poor turn out tonight, following Tuesday and with it being live on Sky.
    Florists have 3k there apparently!

    Johansen played like he had a fridge on his back at Peterborough.
