As I said in another thread, new managers often tend to give the last eleven that failed in previous manager's last game a chance to redeem themselves. On the other hand if Jones wants to start a revolution he should start today rather than next week, so in hoping that he is different from most managers and that he favours a diamond formation I hope he selects: Butland Edwards Souttar BMI Clucas Woods (but not in the Rowett dictated role) Etebo Allen Ince Campbell Afobe
Subs: Frederici, Bauer, Shawcross, Sorensen, Bojan, Berahino, Jarvis
If Bojan plays from the beginning, and I would obviously like that, I would have Ince alongside Campbell and Afobe on the bench. I think Shawcross' career is just about over, I really cant see him fit into Jones' prefered style of football, but I would have him on the bench as he is still our captain and a positive influence on all players - Fletcher-style if you like.
I don't think these 11 have ever played together, which seems perfect for a new start.

Bojan loves his football. We all love him. Remember he suffers from anxiety . Every day a difficult unknown day for him. If he plays let not expect too much from him. I'm sure our BoJan will appreciate playing. Please Jones give him a few games along with ince. This is so sweet. And a completely insane approach to picking a football team. This isn't an under 11s side and even if it was it's still wrong.

There is considered change and there's let's mix it up for the hell of it. And any team that includes Souttar must have been picked using a bingo machine. A broken bingo machine at that. I pretty much expect a familiar looking side on Saturday with Bojan and Bauer nowhere near the squad. it will take Jones a few weeks to decide what he's got and impose his approach on the side. No doubt if he doesn't pick the people's favourites he'll get the abuse thrown at him as was thrown at previous managers. Best thing he can do is to ignore them and crack on with his own ideas. Best thing the club can do is get rid of the source of any distraction for the manager.

Everyone was raving about Brentford but they've fell away after a good start to the season. Good game to get back on track.

A new and bold formation of 12 players. Should do better with that. Lol that will teach me to have a morning coffee in advance of coming on the oatcake. Haha.
I got away with it for a good ten minutes with my under 11's once.
By accident of course ; )

Massive 3 points here, a lot more positive now the brummie next door has left the club. Jack Erik - BMI - Shawx - Bauer Clucas - Bojan - Allen - Ince (difficult to get 2 up front with Bojan) Super Saido - Adobe COME ON YOU POTTERS!!

Fingers crossed for a positive start.
Let’s hope all, myself included, are willing to show some patience if there are at least some positive signs in his first outing.

This is so sweet. And a completely insane approach to picking a football team. This isn't an under 11s side and even if it was it's still wrong. If a footballer and it happened to Buffon recently has a Panic attack on match day. The player may be unable to play. We should just remember if BoJan is having an anxiety day. He may not be chosen to play. Let hope he gets matches. Clubs should be looking after players physical and mental health. At any age. I'm sure that they are! It would be a dereliction of a duty of if they were not.

Neither Bauer or Bojan will not start on Saturday and I dont think either will be on the bench ,possible Shrewsbury is the best they can hope for at the moment

Having Bojan in the match day squad at least is a no brained. That will instantly get fans even more on Jones’ side

Just the sight of the players giving it 100% for 90mins will do for me.
Being realistic, three days on the training ground with this group isn't going to produce Jonesalona football and I do expect us to look confused and exposed if he jumps straight in with his 442 Diamond formation.
First time I've felt excited for ages even if the odds of a result are narrow...
