In what way? Barring the right wing back slot, and Pines' fitness, I think the team picks itself with the players we have available in my opinion.
Does DC change the system to start Russell or replace one of the starters from last week and is Pines ready for a league start. Also does he change the strikers. We may be in for a few surprises - I am finding it hard to predict.
A very tricky game. I'm not sure we have the means to keep many clean sheets yet and I'm not sure we're full of goals either. 1-0 Lincoln.
It's refreshing though to have manager who is willing to change the system dependant on the opponent and how the game is going. Far too many times in recent years we've made like for like changes hoping that'll influence the game.
3-1 Lincoln. We've not beaten them for 15 years, not kept a clean sheet yet this season and still not sorted our attacking issues. Gonna be a tough afternoon going there where we haven't done well in previous seasons with much stronger players.
I think the right wingback picks itself tbh after Cotters performance at Wigan.. But the left wingback on the other hand, Ghent or Lofthouse should be giving Clarke a problem.. Then Pines for Mael.. is an option, also does Russell come in for Craig.. Score.. we may sneak it, we may lose it also but a low score game... so cats paw for me 0-0
See on the right, I actually think Clarke will stick with O'Keeffe, so we'd both be wrong. Despite our lack of options up front, we do seem to have a fair few in other areas of the pitch.
With our limitations up front ....imho a draw would be a very good result. I'm more thinking a 1 or 2 nil loss. Hope I'm wrong.
O'Keefe to me seems the weakest of the three.. (cotter Lofthouse) Once Lofthouse gets the nod at RWB I'm sure he'll make that his own.. but early days yet Clarkes still learning his best 11.. Ed.. I like the look of Lofthouse every time I see him.. tall pacey. Think he could/will move into the right CB of the back 3 when the time is right..
I predicted 1-1 but have just woken from a lovely dream of a perfect Watters hat-trick. Today's the day he kick starts.
