I looked at the threads (admittedly without my glasses) and couldn't see one. If there is I shall withdraw gracefully. If not then 1-1 Frey |  | | |  |

Two low scoring sides both not in form. A low scoring 1-0 game …got a horrible feeling Stoke will win this hope I am wrong come on rangers prove me wrong. | | | |

Without Saito, Chair, Kolli, Field, JCS and probably Cook also.
But for some reason, I think we will put in a decent performance and will surprise with a two nil away day victory.
Smyth and Dembele on the score sheet for me !!!
There's no reasoning behind this. I was certain we would lose at home to Pompey and was very confident of getting some kind of result against Leeds, last time out.
Both for no other reason, other than some random insight based on nothing !!!
Away win, it is... [Post edited 28 Mar 17:37]

Badly weakened squad so we’ll do well to get a point I think.
Keep it tight and hopefully hit them on the break.
Starting eleven?
Nardi
Paal
Fox
Morrison
Dunne
Edwards
Varane
Colback
Dembele
Smyth
Frey |  | | |

Does a Chair or Morgan in for say Edwards in midfield make that much difference? But yeah definitely wouldn’t play that midfield 3. | | | |

Club has said that Varane and Lloyd will be back. Cook out, as they need to deal with his foot problem. Despite him being in the training photos! Allegedly, there were hints that Kolli might be back. Didn't see him in the photos.
I suspect Edwards will move back to the defence, probably alongside Fox. Colback & Varane ahead of them. The attacking 3 could be contentious. Smyth or Yang, Andersen, Dembele. Frey up front.
Bench - Walsh; Ashby, Morrison; Yang or Smyth, Morgan, Madsen, Bennie; Lloyd and Petrie, if Kolli not ready.
Dunne as captain? |  |

Hopefully Stoke are as bad as their leauge position suggests .
Win this one and we can rest easy .
Would take a clean sheet though and take it from there. | | | |

Lots of interesting questions. Edwards reprising his Dm role. Morison- the undefeated, in for Cook. Varane back letting Colback advance? The biggest loss is Saito…can Yang go to the left ? |  | | |

I’m not so sure.
We’ve had two uninterrupted weeks on our state of the art training ground and would imagine we’ve removed any deficiencies, honing to perfection, the wingers long throw onto the right backs head.
48 points and safety. |  | | |

Two sides well versed in finding ways to lose. But both can't lose. A bit of a conundrum this one. |  |

With half the team missing you'd need to be a right Pollyanna to think we'll get anything.
With heavy heart 2-0 to them. |  | | |

A tedious 0-0 that does nothing for either side (including us). |  |

Oh, that's probably the side I would play, but still... JEEEEEEZ. | | | |

Bit left field but I would go with Alfie Lloyd on the left in this one. I can't see Smyth or Yang adapting to the left side in the absence of Saito and Chair and Lloyd has played there before and done well. Hope Marti thinks about it. | | | |

Smyth played LW when he was at Orient. | |

Fans love a good winger and we've had quite a few.
Going back donkey's, villa had a winger called Charlie Athersmith. He was a heavy drinker and had a short career.
One game, in protest at having to play in impossible conditions of freezing torrential rain, he nicked an umbrella off a spectator and dribbled up and down the wing.
Villa finished the match with only 7 men on the pitch and one of them had to be treated for exposure in the dressing room after the game.
All true, look it up on Wiki. | | | |

That’s what I was thinking. I’d start with him on the left and Dembele or Yang on the right.
Nothing against Andersen but I hope Marti isn’t tempted to use him as a Chair replacement in the 10 role. ( Or even worse Madsen ). I think we need a combative midfield of Varane, Colback and Morgan for this one, with Edwards slotting back into central defence. [Post edited 29 Mar 0:05]
