If Tymon isn't, couldn't we just scrap wingbacks`? No way,MON will find someone, so he can play his back 5. Can’t wait to see Fox play there….

Bursik (needs a good game though)
Wilmot (no one else really) Taylor Jags Tymon (no one else really)
Kilkenny
Baker Laurent
Campbell (although needs to get his finger out Gayle Dwp
4 1 2 3 and just go for it
Edit Would have put Tymon further up field

If Tymon isn't, couldn't we just scrap wingbacks`? Although we don't have any proper fullbacks either? he'd probably put Fox at LB (who might be a LCB/LB - but not convincing wherever he plays) and at RB I suspect he'd go with Wilmot (who is definitely not a RB but does an okay job most of the time).

Bursik Taylor Jagielka Wilmot Fosu Baker Thompson Tymon Smallbone Gayle Brown
If Tymon isn’t fit then;
Bursik Wilmot Taylor Jagielka Fox Baker Thompson Brown Smallbone Campbell Gayle
I’d give Laurent a rest with him being a doubt as we have options to replace him

He doesn't sound too confident re Tymon and Laurent.
And at the moment they're thinking 4-6 weeks for Harry Clarke

So MON didn't just sign whatshisnamenow specifically for the rwb? You could say he did a trial run for Thompson at lwb and it's good to know that if Tymon gets injured during a game that Thompson can slot in, but since Tymon is the only reason we use wingbacks, must we play with them after all, if he's unavilable? Fox has been immensely poor at lwb, but really useful at lb - sometimes - and quite a mainstay lcb at one time, although that was ages ago. I have to admit I don't get it. The difference between lwb and lb should really just be a matter of a few yards further up or further down the line, yet Fox goes white as a sheet when asked to sit as lwb and Tymon is a disasterzone when played at lb, but switch them those yards up or down and they are key members of MON's finest.

Far too many player names spelt correctly on this board for my liking.
Bursic Tailor Phlint Willmot Mensah Bayker Laurence Timon Smallbones Gail Browne
Yes I’m aware we haven’t signed Fosu-Mensah!

Tbh mate with that system couldn’t find a spot for him as I agree he is the only bit of creativity we have. You’d have to drop maybe Campbell play 2 up top and small one just behind. I did think of that but in my head was wanting to go all out attack

He has to find a place for Fosu, plus Flint & Clucas should be nowhere near the 11, because if he plays the latter 2,we are going to get beat.

A better defence I’d go 433 all day long Small one for Laurent it is 👍

Are you saying teams can play other formations to suit players? Crazy out there thinking that. Generically 'teams' can. Anybody can. I didn't say Stoke can, that is why there is a question mark. I was referring to MON, a dig at him

Why can't our key players ever stay fit, in game or training....our injury record is pathetic. 2 years of the same crap. But nothing to do with the manager. 😂

This has the makings of a spectacular defeat. You'll get the unsackable manager a long vacation... What one like satdee No would beat boro but it would have to be offensive What would your team be then I'm sorry. I usually don't make predictions about teams. I prefer 4231 personally, but I don't really follow Stoke's training and academy performances anymore, so I don't have any information to offer credible selections. And with 11 new signings I don't know half the squad anymore. It is, of course, much easier to be critical and have double standards...

If Tymon is injured he’ll play Thompson there.
