Every game we play should be treated as a cup final to get the points to stay up this season and I hope the players show they are up for it, I think that’s a minimum requirement tomorrow It was there at Elland Road , that’s what stood out for me . We will have our dips I’m sure and tomorrow could be one of them but we are improving as quality returns I feel . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dewsburyowl58 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Be surprised if Hutch and Bannon both start and Fessi will surely be on the bench , Jos practically said as much didn’t he ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way is S6 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Must admit I'd almost forgotten about JVA & Octopussy. Jos will earn his corn now, sorting out a decent team compared to the bare bones of recent weeks. Looking forward to tomorrow. Hope FF doesn't start. Preston are his bogey team.

Tamworthowl Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Van Aken at left wing back? Didnt he play there (or a more traditional left full back) for the U23 and was all over the place, according to one observer? I like Van Aken and think he'll come good in a back three, but not as a wing back. Judging by the slow return of Lees, Hutchinson, Bannan and Van Aken, I don't see JL giving Forestieri a place tomorrow. Doubtful for Monday as well, but maybe a place on the bench if there's a bit of player resting/rotation. I expect the side in the OP. Subs Dawson, Palmer, Van Aken, Pelupessy, Jones, Rhodes, Stobbs.

shezzas left peg Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Agree with most team suggestions on here, but it's Preston and they're very in your face and robust similar to Bolton in style only with more better players. Wouldn't want nando coming straight in against them and his knee getting kicked to death by Pearson. I'd maybe go with a midfield 3 of Hutch. Bannan. Pelepusy. and maybe go with Reach in behind Nuhiu. Gives us that extra man to drop into midfield when needed defensively and would allow bannan and reach to bomb on forward while hutch and Pelepusy hold hopefully to help the defence as a solid platform.

Hutch and Bannan won’t start both Really hope we don't go down the same road with Hutch with him playing back to back games whenever we have midweek fixtures. He spent half his time in the Brentford game stretching after he had played on Boxing Day v Forest then subsequently got injured again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's had the international break to recover, so should be good to go bud. Thing is as the more we get back fit the less Jos will have to rely on players too often especially as a few of the development lads have stepped up too.

He'd be the first name on the team sheet for me tomorrow but I'd leave him out on Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trask43 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 The best team available is the one in OP but not sure thats what jos will go with think I must be missing something with van aken as I dont see anything about him that suggests he'd make a good wingback, the main problem we have had there is no one out of fox, boyd and pudil etc really has the mobility for the position, van aken looked poor to me when he first came in the team but hes got potential and the left sided centre back of a three is the perfect position for him just let him focus on playing there. Think jos will save a few legs for the next game so will hopefully see something like this for preston wildsmith venancio lees pudil hunt boyd hutch reach bannan nuhiu joao but then a few changes for sunderland wildsmith venancio lees van aken palmer boyd pelupessy reach bannan ff rhodes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarnsleyOwl96 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Wildsmith Hunt Lees Fred Pudil Boyd Bazza Hutch Reach Nuihu Joao wouldnt Be suprised if the likes of baz and hutch came off in 60 mins to save for Monday . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bouncing Owl Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 I’d go Wildsmith Venancio Lees Pudil Hunt Boyd Hutch Bannan Reach Joao Dave Reach left wing back and put Boyd in midfield. Boyd hasn’t the legs to play wing back and he would be better in the midfield in my opinion. Discounting Joey as I don’t think he’s that good.
