[Nonayforever]

Pope
Roberts Tarks Mee Pieters
Lennon Westwood Stephens McNeil
Barnes Wout

Their defence will surely get their feathers ruffled.

[ClaretMov]

With JBG Out I'd go

..........................Pope

Roberts --- Tarks --- Mee --- Taylor

Lennon -- Westwood -- Cork -- McNeil

------- Weghorst ------- Cornet

Dyche will go

..........................Pope

Lowton --- Tarks --- Mee --- Taylor

Lennon -- Westwood -- Cork -- McNeil

------- Barnes ------- Jay Rod

[Dark Cloud]

Not that I'm making him a scapegoat in any way, but after the Arsenal match Lowton really can't walk back in ahead of Roberts. Roberts has to play for me and like everyone else, I'll be extremely disappointed if Cornet and Wout don't start to give us a real boost for this one.

[AlargeClaret]

Pope
Roberts Tarky Mee Taylor /Pieters
Lennon Stephens Westwood McNeil
Jay Cornet

I’d imagine if Cornet starts he’ll bring WW on 60ish mins .
Perhaps Cork for Stephens . Pity Taylor and Brownhill out or we’d be approaching a strongest XI

[BleedingClaret]

Here our best team when all available, imo.

Pope
Collins Tarks Mee

Roberts Westy Brownhill Taylor

Cornet WW Dwight

Awesome at attacking set pieces.

Agree with this players wise
I'd set it up in a 532

...................Pope
........Collins..........Mee
Roberts.........Tarks.........Taylor
.....Westy...Brownhill...Dwight
...........WW........Cornet

[tiger76]

Pope
Roberts Tarks Mee Pieters
Lennon Stephens Westwood McNeil
Cornet Weghorst

We need to win this no if's no buts, and to win we need to carry a goal threat, therefore our new striker and returning striker simply have to play.

I think your spot on with both teams claretandy id like to see Collins come into the side but like you say i very much doubt Dyche will change from the 442 so the team you pick i think is the team which will start, he'll keep Maxwell back just incase we go behind and we need a crowd lift.

[taio]

Would've been reasonable to try a different shape and formation in some of our recent games, but I really struggle to understand the case for deviating from 442 or at least a back four tomorrow. Not the time to be experimenting tomorrow in such a crucial game.

Max and Wout will start, don't worry about that.

Dyche may be stubborn, but he's not thick.

[Buxtonclaret]

Max and Wout will start, don't worry about that.

Dyche may be stubborn, but he's not thick.

Hope your right.

Don't panic, I'm a doctor

You know if he doesn't you are now going to be quoted a lot on here

[Bin Ont Turf]

You know if he doesn't you are now going to be quoted a lot on here

I'll live with that

Max has been on a long holiday, and Wout virtually scores 1 in 2 where ever he's been.

Apart from any niggles, they'll start.

I don't know if you are referring to my post taio, about changing from 442 but i didn't say we should change, all i said was id like to see Collins in the side, id also like to see McNeil central but that's only my opinion, i agree with you that there has been a number of games where we could have tried something different having only won 1 game in the league this season but Dyche likes to play 442 and so that's what we play.

I was referring to anyone who thinks we should play three centre halves tomorrow

[davetheclaret]

Well im not for that, the way we defended at Arsenal i wouldn't be messing about to much with the back 4

[brexit]

It will be

Stephens
Brownhill

Jay Rod

Dinosaur Dyche Doesn't Deviate

[tiger76]

It will be

Dinosaur Dyche Doesn't Deviate

Well Brownhill certainly won't play as he's suspended, Taylor is a doubt, and Barnes will make the bench at best I'd imagine, but apart from that you might be right on the rest.

Now we have two Dutch lads playing for us, 532 will work perfectly.

If this team plays to its potential, we should have a good chance of winning this game.

Boring brexit blunders badly.

As a brexiter I am happy to have my mistakes pointed out to me and take criticism with good grace.
My maxim is "Don't argue with idiots as they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience"

Re: cornet
I thought SD was slightly concerned about his possible slight lack of fitness , though presume he’d start him and sub eariy for WW in that case ?
