    I doubt it- can't understand how he is in the team at all. Offers absolutely nothing

    He has to deliver today. I don’t get how he starts ahead of the others, but hope he proves me wrong.

    One is back from injury and one played internationally this week (same reason I assume Bednarek is on the bench)

    Russell has had three weeks to work with him, which he didn’t really have back in the summer because of the uncertainty about whether he’d stay or not. So just maybe we’ll see a different player.

    Good team. Glad to see Bree start. If Sulemana isn`t cutting it, then there are good options to bring on with fresh legs.

    Yes I think it's understandable why Sule is starting given circumstances for the others.
    On Solent they mentioned that Bednarek took a few knocks for Poland.

    Fraser over Sulemana all day. But if we win this AND have a rested Fraser for Ipswich, then even better.

    Like that line up and glad Sulemana is getting a start. Obviously has a lot of talent and the only way he is going to realise that is with game time, especially as his biggest flaw is his decision making. Time will tell if that ever improves but I’m willing to give him opportunities to show what he can do

    I can’t believe Leicester lost again. They’re really gonna bottle it aren’t they

    Yeah I wasn’t saying that scenario was going to happen, just pointing out that we want to be playing for something for as long as possible rather than having a number of games at the end of the season that are essentially meaningless

    He's clearly talented but raw. Needs game time. Today he's got a good opportunity to impress.

    I can't see that happening, if not automatic then finishing as high as possible in the playoff group is to our advantage.

    Id argue it’s better to finish 4th than 3rd this season. The team that finishes 6th look like they are going to be bang in form

    But anyway atm it’s completely in our hands as we are 9 points off, any dropped points and it could easily be autos over

    A lot of this line up is based on who has been around for the past 2 weeks. Plus Ipswich coming up next.
