    Can't argue with that. Cole & McAtee up front for me. Really a 3-5-1-1

    How good to see so many disagreements in this thread. We've way more selection headaches now for Collins than we did when the season started and we've still a few to return.

    You have to think every player is now going to put a top shift in or they are on the bench next week.

    Out of interest, why would you drop Shepherd? I think he's done extremely well.

    I'd drop Kane. Well, depending on how motivated Styles has been since he came back from playing with Hungary. If he's up for it, it would be Styles for Kane. But not behind the front two, I don't think he's great at that. I'd want him playing alongside Russell but with licence to get forward. Box to box. He's supposed to be our best player, give him the whole field to play in. Phillips can cover when needs be.

    All this.

    Play it up to Cosgrove. Control it, play it out to Cotter or O'Keeffe or Cadden or Dodgson, whip it in to Cole, back of the net. And if Cole and Cosgrove aren't doing it, haul them off and get Watters and McAtee on.

    Talk about spoiled for choice.

    I'd play with McAtee & Cole. They will defend & we need to run at them. Brring Cosgrove on later IMO.

    Definitely a headache for Collins. There's also the possibility of other formations, perhaps a 4-4-2 with Cotter and Styles playing as wide midfield/wingers, or a 4-3-3.

    I think we'll see O'Keeffe back in the starting line up, and Cosgrove up front with Cole.

    On paper I don’t need to but we never have it easy against Burton, so to stop them getting lonely I’ll put Roberts , Lopata, Williams, Cadden, Styles, Philliips, Kane , Cole and Macatee with em with Killip, Watters, Marsh, McAarthy, McCart and Russell on the bench or Cotter or start Russell oh I don’t know. We do appear to have some strength in depth which we lacked before
