    I`d like to see Phillips for Russell as the only change.
    Thoughts?

    I’d like to see Philips for Connell. Harsh I know but sitting out for a game or two may help him recover a bit of form

    I'd be playing Phillips can always contribute and change a game. Nwakali has to start too.

    I’d like to see the manager be flexible and try to recognise game by game if Phillips would be able to get in dangerous positions to cross/pass the ball which’s he’s superb at or if we’d be better off with a no 8 who has more of an all round game

    Phillips and Russell with Kelechi holding would be my choice.

    Can’t see him dropping Connell though.

    I think Russell's been one of our best players this season so far, I wouldn't drop him. I'd like to see Phillips, Russell, Connell and Nwakali all in the team so I'd drop DKD and play Phillips behind Humphrys.

    Nobody who broke our winless run last game should be dropped to accommodate "Phillo".

    Hope he contributes if he plays because he has looked lost recently.

    I’d leave Phillips out he’s been a passenger all season, needs a kick up the Harris

    Is that supposed to demonstrate he’s influential ?
    I have been a fan up to this season but he goes missing all the time my patience has run out.

    Yes. Because the biggest influence a player can have on a team is scoring goals.

    Excellent player, just off form. If he didn't have these patches of inconsistency, we'd have never been able to sign him

    I think there is good argument for leaving Connell out, however I don't see it happening, especially with Roberts out injured. I've not been particularly impressed with his leadership, though none of the other players look capable of fulfilling that role.

    If Watters is fully fit, then I'd play him up front for either DKD or Humphrys. We've looked better when he leads the line and runs the channels, something that doesn't come naturally to either DKD or Humphrys.
