So Williams is banned and not sure Cotterill will risk playing Elliott. I don't rate Williams but in our set up he provides a modicum of balance. Have we got another left sided defender who could play in a back 3 ? Will Cotterill change the system Boxing Day ? Should he bench Agard - Is it time for Jet ? It's so called 'little ol Yeovil' Friday but reckon SC is between a rock and a hard place. Me ? I wouldn't alter the system and make 2 changes. Crystal Ball time but I'd go with : Fielding Ayling Flint Cunningham. Little Pack Korey Freeman Bryan (hope he'll be fit). Jet Wilbraham.
Still cant see Jet starting ahead of Agard. Williams suspension will mean that Cunningham should keep a starting berth, Think Wade and Joe will both start if fit, if not I reckon Todd Kane will get a start if he's back to full fitness.
If we keep 3-5-2 Fielding Ayling - Flint - Osborne Little - Pack - Smith - Freeman - Bryan (Cunningham) Agard - Wilbraham Alternative to play 4-4-2 with Kane and Cunningham as full backs with Freeman on the left of midfield
Osborne's a right sided player so if fit I don't think he should start there. Remember Wolves last year when he played that side and looked out of place? I would go possibly 442 fielding Osbourne Ayling Flint Cunningham Little Pack Smith Freeman Agard Wibraham Or sacrifice Pack and put JET in front of Smith
GJ is quite clever, has a good tactical brain for most of the time.... SC has worked wonders, and gotten us to the top 2 in the first half of the season... but I am beginning to wonder if he has lost the plot a little??? We know WILBERS can put them away, and has FREEMAN as a supply man, and the midfield can supply a few, however . . . . . WILBERS and MATT with JET and FREEMAN with Ayling Flint Cunningham Little Pack Smith we could have a 3 - 4 -1 -2 ?
Very difficult to guess a starting line up because SC keeps any information about injured players within the club. That is a smart thing to keep opposing managers guessing but it don't help us. For the purpose of keeping a thread going, I will assume Wade is fit but Joe is not. So here goes. Fielding Ayling Flint Osborne Little Elliott Smith Freeman Wagstaff (or Kane) Smith Wilbraham I have a feeling that Cotts does not rate Cunningham who from radio commentary was pretty ineffective last week at Crewe. I do wonder if he will go 4-4-2 although that could give the advantage to Yeovil who will probably line up 4-5-1 and try to catch us on the break.
