Couldnt see one started.

15 mins to teams being released. Reading it will be a changed squad again on twitter.

Hopefully Muric plays, he needs to get back on the horse ASAP.

team for today

HiThere · Post by **HiThere** » Sat Feb 18, 2023 2:02 pm

Solid side.

Interesting

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Sat Feb 18, 2023 2:03 pm

Cork back in was nailed on for this one, the question was simply who drops out. Not a big fan of Taylor at cb but can kinda see why today. Glad Muric is good to go.

ksrclaret · Post by **ksrclaret** » Sat Feb 18, 2023 2:06 pm

Glad to see Cork back in.

Taylor in is somewhat of a surprise but Al-Dakhil is still quite slight in stature so possibly not yet ready to face the big physical test today. Taylor’s experience may well be vital.

Interesting to see Zaroury drop out - he wasn’t at it against Watford but was excellent against Preston so seems a little harsh actually. Solidity is obviously seen as very important today.

Glad to see Muric in. Hope he can stand up to Luton today.

Win today and we will be 11 clear at top if Sheffield U score holds. Boro must be hopeful of catching Sheff U

tarkys_ears · Post by **tarkys_ears** » Sat Feb 18, 2023 2:10 pm

Zaroury was well off it the other day, a real shame.

Still, the gaffer does what he has to. I suspect we'll see him on at some point.

Cirrus_Minor · Post by **Cirrus_Minor** » Sat Feb 18, 2023 2:10 pm

Zaroury as sub. Probably a wise move, he was a bit leggy against Watford, be good to introduce if needed off the bench.

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Sat Feb 18, 2023 2:12 pm

Sheff U equalized

claretspice · Post by **claretspice** » Sat Feb 18, 2023 2:15 pm

Zaroury was fine against Watford but he did look just a touch leggy and given the form of Tella and Gudmundsson I don't think it's a surprise he's the odd one out today. Hes probably played more minutes than anyone else since the world cup and just needs q bit of careful management. Two tough aways this week too.

He hasn't been at it the last 2 games. I thought after Watford, he needs a rest. Still young and an awful lot to deal with this last few months, with our squad I would have expected a lot more team changes than we've actually had. We need to keep everyone fresh.

Not true - he was excellent against Preston

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Sat Feb 18, 2023 2:17 pm

3-2 Millwall

KRBFC · Post by **KRBFC** » Sat Feb 18, 2023 2:19 pm

That 18 is without
Harwood Bellis, Beyer, Churlinov, Bastien, Rodriguez, Benson, Dervisoglu
shows what real depth we have.

Really disappointed for Churlinov, I liked him alot pre injury and just hasn't done enough since despite flashes. He didn't even start the Ipswich home tie. His future here doesn't look great If he can't even make the Championship bench when we have 4 main players out injured.

nil_desperandum · Post by **nil_desperandum** » Sat Feb 18, 2023 2:19 pm

It appears to me that back 4 lacks pace relative to many of our lineups.
I'm a little surprised that Taylor is preferred to Al Dakhil.
His partnership with Ekdal seemed promising against Watford.

The team was excellent, he was very quiet. He didn't do anything wrong, but was very quiet compared to his usual game.

Zaroury very quiet v Preston? He was absolutely electric first half in particular. Him and Tella.

Taylor is no slouch, i would have preferred Al-Dakhil though.

Possibly but he's very experienced. He's fresh, Cork is fresh and Zaroory needed a rest.

Certainly need Charlie's experience and physicality today Luton some big lads up front.

Somewhat surprised to see AZ benched but got to think of Millwall game as well.

Vinny will sort it.

Yes, I was going to add that. He may need to be the organiser today.
