I really hope not, that's a horrible team as a whole So we've had some nice teams for the last few weeks have we? We need a functional no nonsense set up that will steel out a win. Bae, Cundle and Millions on the bench. Alright mate calm down. Yes we've had better teams than that over the last few weeks.

I think itโll be:
Iversen
Gooch Rose Wilmot Hoever
Burger Laurent Bae
Manhoef Ennis Campbell
Can see Leris starting today to be honest. Maybe even as RB or in place of Campbell.

How is this home goalscoring run even possible? Tempting to get Baker and Campbell in, but then when you see them actually play, you want someone else! Rotherham โฝ โฝ โฝ โฝ Watford โฝ Preston Hull โฝ Southampton Sunderland โฝ โฝ Leeds โฝ (own goal) Cardiff Blackburn Sheff Weds Swansea โฝ (pen) Millwall Ipswich Birmingham โฝ Leicester QPR โฝ Cov ------------------ Middlesbrough My best mate is a Boro fan and is quite pessimistic about their chances today. However, I have just pointed out that since the reverse fixture we have a grand total of three home goals...one of those being a penalty. It's barely believable.

Here is my team - subs under starter names. We have to start with three at the back, can't afford to give away the first goal. I had some debate with others yesterday about the pros and cons of starting Pearson or Baker. I think Pearson will provide some bite to help momentum and confidence build, as well as protection to cover the WB's runs forward. If he gets carded, then Baker comes on. Hoever must not go walkabout this time! If we go 4-3-3 later in the game, Gooch goes into LB and Hoever moves over to RB.

Wilmot for Clark if he's not fit, but I think a left-footed CB is needed there. Laurent, and Cundle on if the midfield doesn't fire.

..................Iversen................... .......Laurent.....Wilmot......Rose.......... Gooch.......Pearson......Baker.........Burger Manhoef............Ennis...............Junho With our injuries and suspensions I think I'd go for this lineup. Burger as wingback? Interesting tactical choice... Or is he an "inverted wingback"? Then he should be on the right. He is left footed, has defensive awareness and got decent pace as well. I would like to play him in the middle, but with our injuries and suspensions I think he will be our best choice. I don't want to see Hoever back in the team!

Yeah, but the drawback is we lose our main engine in midfield. Not knocking it, was just curious as to the thinking behind it.

View AttachmentWilmot for Clark if he's not fit, but I think a left-footed CB is needed there. Laurent, and Cundle on if the midfield doesn't fire. Does a left-footed defender in the back three really make that much difference? Clark may be left-footed but he's... well, gash! And both Clark and Hoever in the back three feels akin to running into battle armed with just a catapult. I would put Gooch in at left back and move Million to AMR if we go 4-3-3 though.

And both Clark and Hoever in the back three feels akin to running into battle armed with just a catapult. I would put Gooch in at left back and move Million to AMR if we go 4-3-3 though. Yes it does. It's much easier for a winger to go outside when the LCB has to cover more space than with a back four. It was our main problem last season until Fox started to understand the role. Plus, Wilmot has been gash as well. The thought of the back line of Rose-Wilmot-Hoever (the most likely one) will kill us off quickly. But yeah, Clark is a gamble. A big one. And I have Gooch at LWB and Million as AMRC (to use FM terminology). Trouble is, Gooch has been awful at LW and a bit meh at RW, even if he is a true winger unlike Million.

Better out wide than both in the middle as RCB and CB. All our options have drawbacks and missing pieces...

Whoever starts today, I only ask that they be willing to die for the team today. No passengers, no negative play, no sulking or hiding. Balls to the wall from 0.1 seconds on the clock right to the final whistle.

Hopefully we will be less exposed defensively compared to other alternatives. I doubt SS will choose this lineup though!

Yet more tactical and line up changes due I guess. The lack of anything resembling a settled team is a massive factor in our fall.

Yes It could be Gooch and Manhoef as wing backs but more likely to be what you have put

Watching this on the train home; it had better be worth the bandwidth.
Team looks no cacker than usual.
Bae on the left, nah.
Two CBs, nah.
No midfield enforcer, nah.
Fingers crossed, basically.
