Looking at all of the above selections and the large amount of various formats, it does paint a picture of confusion.
Once of a day the team picked itself.

Vydra and Wood will be the best partnership, once Vydra makes match fitness to start.

Barnes or vokes with vydra in the no 10 role please Mr Dyche! Wood not up to much up front on his own n he needs dropping.

He wouldn't be upfront on his own if Vydra starts.

That's what I mean. Wood wouldn't need dropping if Vydra starts. It makes much more sense Vydra and Wood upfront together than Vydra and Barnes or Vokes. Definitely.

SD won't drop Hart - just like he doesn't 'drop' anyone who doesn't let him down. Genuine case for Lowton to return ahead of Bardsley as they have rotated to a certain extent already. Taylor to start ahead of Ward as things stand.

If JBG is fit he'll start and McNeil will drop to the bench - which might not be a bad thing as it would mean we could make a change that gives the opposition something different to think about.

Doubt Vydra will be considered ready for a start. I'd give Westwood a breather and play Hendrick and Cork in a central two which would actually give us some threat from that area as opposed to the holding plan (Cork/Westwood) which gives us few positive options if we concede first.

Up front this is a game where Vokes's attributes could pay dividends - I'd pair him with Wood but get Barnes on sooner rather than later if it's not working.

I hope I'm wrong n dyche plays 2 up front, but I can see the usual Hendrick no 10 role with wood on his own up top!

Yeah. Vydra's best position from what I saw of him in the Championship - and I do watch quite a lot - it's collecting the ball from midfield and running towards goal, with the ball on the ground. Him behind Wood is absolutely perfect.

Wood would not be on his own, Vydra would support him a lot better than Hendrick, as Hendrick is a natural midfielder. Vydra is someone to pick the ball up and take it forward as the support striker.

A lot of posters have opted for Barnes/Vokes, with Vydra behind, but they can't have seen anything/much of Vydra, that will be why.

It's good that the team doesn't pick itself, it means that we have options.

The European campaign and injuries have gone towards us not having a settled side.

Hopefully starting tomorrow we will see a settled side and for a good few weeks, until Brady and Defour come back.

Hmm. In this instance, I think it's more because we have a few players who are underperforming and have too few options. A few players aren't in form, so there's a lot of room for players to be swapped.
