That's the second time now that the lineup has been leaked apparently Who the fuck is leaking this stuff? No Jack on the bench. As for the team, un-fucking-believable. Why is Tyrese not starting, really it should be him and Vokes up front, did well together at Leeds. No diamond, looks like 433. Would have started Collins or Bruno. Why not use the 532 again? All's I'll say is, Jones should get his tin hat on because I forsee many fans going mad if we lose. Let's hope this works. When was the line-up leaked Chig? There was someone on here who gave the exact Leeds cup lineup, saying it was from a contact who had also picked a previous team correctly. I'm assuming the same poster picked this lineup (somewhere on here yesterday)

All this huffing and puffing and hand wringing and tactical analysis by the uninformed and, to me
no matter which eleven he picks
e.g. Butland / Allen in or out or, not at all
we're just a bunch of EFL 'no marks'
being absolutely honest -thats how it looks to me right now
the one name I'm happy with right now - the only one that sticks out as a good footballer actually, is for me
Lee Gregory - and Id partner Hogan with him at some stage
thats it really
OH ! and hope they win --- always

It's on the pinned match day thread mate, bigcashprizes has had it correct 3 times in a row now.

Seems that is confirmation that we can wave goodbye to Badou wait until the window has expired before you write your love notes

Bruno staying, Badou still time for a late loan?
Ince and McClean wide of a lone striker - back to the failed Rowett formation, then, if one of those midfield three is further forward than the others (but which one?).
At least we have a flat back four with full backs who know how to defend, which is a start.
It has "looking for a 0-0 draw" written all over it.

The lack of cohesion with team selection is baffling enough, combine that with a lack of cohesion in team shape and formation is certainly not a mixture for success. We lack partnerships all over the pitch and it really does show in our performances and results.

It looks...solid and Rowetty.
And not very Jonesy.
Can't believe McClean wide in a three is still a thing.

Flumoxed by the team sheets, never known such random teams being picked in 50 years supporting stoke.

Maybe I will be proved wrong but I quite like it. A balanced back 4. An experienced and energetic 3 in midfield. Plus 2 natural wide men to support Gregory up top. Got potential Imho. We’ll see. You forgot to mention one thing: where are 'fulagoals' going to come from?

It’s a formation that could either be defensive or attacking, depends who the opposition is and how they set up.

He has been back training for a while and had a summer of tournament football not that long ago. Surely he is a far better option to Cousins, even if he could only give us 20/30 mins off the bench?

At least Batth, Ince and Etebo are back in our starting line up!

8 months, 11 players, a whole preseason and we have replaced Tom Edwards and swapped Afobe for Gregory. A worse CB and a 34 year old LB. Excellent.

There was someone on here who gave the exact Leeds cup lineup, saying it was from a contact who had also picked a previous team correctly. I'm assuming the same poster picked this lineup (somewhere on here yesterday) Someone at the club isn’t a fan of Jones...... Campbell ( snr)?

It's bigcashprizes who has the inside goss...: Will this be 3 in a row for you now?! Yeah man Someone who knows someone who knows someone 😀 Today: Federici Smith Batth Lindsay Ward Ince Etebo Allen Clucas McClean Gregory That’s the team I got sent earlier Leeds cup: I’ve just heard a leaked team, which is - Butland Batth, CCV, Bruno Smith, Woods, Clucas, Ward Ince Vokes, Campbell The same source called the Preston team correctly. That could’ve been a guess though! We shall see, probably a load of bollocks 😎

I know what you mean mate but we need a result and those he’s been fair to have hardly covered themselves in glory. Very few could genuinely complain about being dropped. His times running out and he needs to try something different.

None, as he is panicking and choosing different players and different formations each week, hoping one works. In all my years watching football, it does seem the best teams are those with a settled selection policy where all the players know their roles and develop little partnerships all over the pitch (centre backs, strikers, full backs and wide men etc) where they know the other's game and they dovetail.

I’m sure he is wanting the sack with that line up it’s dire. Thought it was certain he would play vokes and Campbell after mid week

None because the manager has bottled it in regards to the almighty diamond. Whether that's a good thing or bad thing is yet to be known.
