    Do we chance starting VDV and Romero , if we do I would like to see Grey given the start in midfield , we need to see what the lad can do before the end of the season , this could influence the type of players we go for in the summer , mid of Bergvall Grey and Sarr , that could be the youngest to start in the premier
    Give Tel a start out wide , see how he can link up with Solanke , Tel does not look comfortable with his back to goal but playing off balls from Solanke could be profitable

    I expect and hope Bentancur is back after missing the game in midweek due to suspension. He should be quite fresh.

    He can stay fresh as far as I'm concerned. A MF of Bergvall, Gray & Sarr would do nicely for me in this one. :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Ally Gold has hinted that Romero won't be in the starting line up for the third time in a row.

    We'll probably see Gray at CB again. Praying we get to see him in midfield for a run of games before the end of the season. Absolutely mad that we signed him for a position he's yet to play in.

    Bergvall looks a bit tired imo, might be an idea to use Bissouma.

    Vic
    Porro Gray VDV Udogie
    Bissouma Bentancur Maddison
    Wilson Solanke Tel

    Still think 433 is a pish formation with the players we have, but here we are.

    I know that both Bergvall and Spence need a rest, but I was wondering whether playing Djed alongside VDV and then moving Gray into MF might be an interesting option.

    Give them a week off

    then give them the week off leading up to the 1st leg

    play the kids and subs and those that need minutes for sharpness in the meantime

    Gray in midfield <party>

    But with Bissouma and Bentancur, that is not a creative midfield!

    They all just guess. They’re wrong as often as they’re right

    Bentancur not impressing so far. Well, none of them have TBF.

    Romero captain

    im uncomfortable with that

    I think he takes the piss out of us a bit

    this just makes him believe he’s better than us probably

    would give it to Davies from the starters then Maddison

    Very disjointed game so far to be honest. Neither team really settled well and our passing is woeful sometimes...

    Archie Gray on corners? Didn't expect that.

    Davies is bringing some no-nonsense defending which is a plus. But the MF are looking very porous, so he's going to be busy!
