Bart

De Ridder Hammond JWP Holmes
Lambert Lee

Davis, Richardson, Shaw, Fonte, Chaplow, Hoskins, Forte

Try and give Chaplow 15 mins. If either he or Fonte don't make it, but Reeves on the bench.

don't see the point of Forte on the bench.... unless you meant Fonte.

This is presuming we don't add anyone in the week, although it's possible that we might.

I'm not too fussed about winning, would be nice obviously, but I'd be content with getting players match fit for Cardiff and finding a tactic that works. Without Lallana, we lack a spark of creativity. With that in mind, I think we need to keep it simpler by getting down the flanks and delivering for Lambert. Get some doubling up and overlapping going on out wide. I know Lambert likes to drift out wide, but I think we should discourage him from that as he's needed more in the middle.

Then why would you consider risking some first players? Lambert, De Ridder, Fox and Hooiveld should all be on the bench at the very most. Get Connolly and Do Prado on instead and run the arse out of them. Last night they both looked like they could do with the exercise. Or better yet, make a squad entirely out of our reserves and U21s. Im sure the likes of Butterfield, Jaidi, Forte, Stephens, Hoskins, Reeves etc will be absolutely chomping at the bit for the chance to play.
 
I agree with db462. We should play a weaker team than we did at Coventry, as we are carrying more injuries & have a massive game against a well rested Cardiff. Trust in the youngsters, throw in the newbie, but Tuesday takes priority.
 
Assuming no-one is back fit
Bart
Frazier Martin Fox/Cork Harding
De Ridder Hammond Morgan/JWP Holmes
Reeves
Lambert
Subs: Davis Sephens Forte Guly Connolly Morgan/Cork Tunrbull (i think that is his name?) Lee?

I think we need to keep it simple, use the wingers get them running down the line and whip crosses in for Lambert and hopefully snatch a win with no more injury scares

You missed out on the bit about finding a tactic that works when certain players are out. The likes of Richardson, De Ridder and Lambert need match practise to get match fitness back and getting it here is preferable to going into the Cardiff game without match sharpness. I think it would be beneficial even if we take Richardson and De Ridder off at half time.

Forgot Falque is cuptied - in that case I would play Puncheon after his apology

Richardson (could do with an hour)
Martin
Fonte (if fit, if not Stephens)
Harding

Cork
Hammond

De Ridder
Prowse
Puncheon

Lambert (needs an hour)
 
Not sure if it has been said anywhere...but Lallana has said on Twitter that he only has a knock, its nothing serious and that he hopes to be back ASAP. So hopefully he will be back for the Cardiff game!!
 
It is difficult to know what sort of team Millwall will put out but I don't think it is a good idea to put out too many youth players at such a hostile ground, if we get battered it will dent their confidence. Certainly if Darius Henderson starts he would eat Martin and Stephens for breakfast, so if possible we need a streetwise defender against him.
 
Expecting that Shaw and Chambers probably won't be available, given their involvement in the U17 tournament on the 2nd.


.....................Bart...........................
Richardson....Martin.....Fonte.....Harding
De Ridder....Hammond...JWP....Puncheon
..............Lambert.....Lee....................


Guessing that we'll see a fairly high-strength starting XI simply because we have so many players who have been out of action for a while, plus Lee/Puncheon who need breaking in. Hopefully, that sort of lineup would get off to a good start, and a couple of the youngsters could get an extended run...in addition to Stephens, I'd love to see Jake Sinclair along for the trip.
 
After today's revelations

I really wish we had a bit more info from the club about injuries. I know they like their hush hush approach but we are constantly getting injuries out of nowhere and we never seem to have a clue when anyone will be back <doh>
