possible 4-3-3 with Jones in the holding midfield role, looks harsh on dropping Fleming to the bench.
Think we’ve looked so much better without Coyle and Elder and it took a long time for McCann to see that at this level. To see them both back in the fold, particularly when Fleming has looked much better than Elder is a bit disappointing. Hope he proves me wrong
Wonder if there's a few niggles around ? Flemming has been outstanding since he came in, and tbh imho Eaves offers more then Forrs, can only think this line up has been determined by fatigue and injury.
He was sick after the game on Tuesday... (not sure if that was true)... he'll be back Tuesday I suspect... today will be about stifling them, narrow pitch...
Those egg chasers ain't half scuffing up our pitch. Could be a slippery one on Tuesday. Assuming it goes ahead.
Shota said Wilks would travel but a late decision on whether he would play any part. Can understand resting Fleming - though if it hadn't been 3 games in a week I'd question it. Wonder if Eaves is just selection or injured again.
I find it strange he’s gone for both Jones and Smallwood in the sitting midfield roles. It should be one or the other with a more mobile box-to-box player like Slater or Doc in there.
I think it's fine, Slater has been playing well but much like Fleming he's not played much football this season and we can't afford any more injuries. We needed to freshen it up a bit but it's tough with so many injuries
