I'm not a big fan of Clucas, but he certainly hasn't been our worst player in the friendlies! I also think fair competition for places is needed to improve.  |

Not sure why people are surprised re Clucas, he's played a lot in the friendlies.

I suspect people are bemused rather than surprised

Jesus christ will he ever learn. He really is setting himself to look really stupid picking Clucas unless he's a different player to the one we saw last season. |

I believe we now have FIVE subs.
Predict Smallbone and Brown coming on second half, unless we have some injuries.

The only surprise is that people are surprised. No not surprised, little surprises me about Stoke City and O'Neil anymore. |

Harsh on Jacob Brown. The defence is an unknown if slightly frightening prospect but what the hey let’s start with a bit of belief. Seems that way but we don't know how he's been training. He was late back because of Scotland wasn't he? Presumably not considered ready yet. I don't pay much attention to friendlies. Has he been playing in those? |

Let's hope Sam Clucas proves us all wrong.

Surprised he dropped the top scorer. Hopefully Campbell is fully fit. Clucas is a head scratcher. surprised he dropped Jagielka because he was a rock last season. overall this looks risky but that’s ok because the only thing that correlates success is risk. Theres taking a risk and then there is wilful blindness and recklessness to highly likely outcomes. Its like he's got a death wish already 😂😂 |

Brown as been poor in the friendlies , Jag is nearly 100 so can’t play to often 🤷♂️ |

Not sure why people are surprised re Clucas, he's played a lot in the friendlies. Which is why we played so well, scored so many goals, and won so many.  Here's hoping I'm sooo wrong.  |

No DWP but two more defensive minded midfielders and a really poor right back on the bench is odd too.

Moan moan fucking moan.
I prefer it when he picks a side most on here like and all you read is I like that side, go on stoke. Then we lose 2-0!!

Five subs allowed so I would expect Smallbone, Brown and Thompson to play some part and maybe Kilkenny.

Hopefully the small boned one is still warming up

I believe we now have FIVE subs. Predict Smallbone and Brown coming on second half, unless we have some injuries. On his previous he’ll bring them on in the 80th min when we’re 3-0 down. No creativity but no ball winner either. Not quite sure what his tactics are. Hopefully i’ll be pleasantly surprised. |

I have been so unenthusiastic about this close season period that I have not really followed developments. I received a Text message of today's line up and honestly thought that I had been sent the wrong text and had received someone else's team news!
