The only way I' make changes is on the advice of the medical team, otherwise, same again.
If anyone needs a break after 3 games in 11 days Saturdays the time to do it, (with all due respect to Stoke).

Other than Lee Hughes and Craig Bellamy I at least respect anyone who pulled on the shirt and lived my dream as a boy, regardless of how they got on - They clearly think enough of the club to want to come back for the day so good on themMust admit, the Legends Day thing makes me smile each year...

I've seen a few comments about dropping Saka but we'll want him in the side as you've got Hamer and Burrows on that left hand side and MVE will need the cover.
The only question mark would be Rudoni as personally I'd prefer more structure in the midfield, especially in the transition, as Hamer, O'Hare and Brooks can all cause problems.
Other than that keep as is.

Brooks has looked pretty good whenever I have watched them

They will be expecting Saka and set up for him tactically.

Don’t think it’s a game for Esse. He gets lost a lot and doesn’t offer as much defensively. Personally I wouldn’t change anything for this and make any changes to the starting lineup for Stoke. Going purely off his size is maybe give Markelo 20 mins but if he’s not making the bench that’s not going to happen.

Yeah he can be levelled in there as well as a bloke for sure

Agree. Warnock has a sense of humour and has some humility. Wilder is an arrogant drunk with no class whatsoever

Wilder is a pantomime villan but imo a decent bloke. My eldests footy coach died young. Wilder came to a memorial match to raise money for his family, signed autographs, donated money and even did a stint in goal. That was total class and I will always respect him for that

Our toughest fixture on paper yet. These will be top 8. Knocking on p/o door.
Take a draw. Keep unbeaten run and consolidate in 2 wins.
Sane team but i expect changes to be made earlier. Cant afford to burn out first team starters with Short turn around to Saturday.
Saying all that i wouldnt be surprised to see Esse and Eccles to start ahead of Sakamoto and Rudoni so they can impact from bench.

If true, probably for the TV lot to sort their lives out
It changed in the Prem last season to match the European competitions. The EFL then decided to follow suit for this season.

I'm feeling positive about the game tomorrow. I know Sheff U's home form is pretty good recently but in general, they are not great against the teams higher in the league.
They have played 9 games against the current top 6 and have lost 7 of them. They have a draw against Millwall and a win against Ipswich.
That's 4 points out of 27.
The majority of their points this season have come from the teams currently in the bottom 6 having beaten all of the teams they have played twice (Portsmouth, Leicester, Oxford & Sheff W) on both occasions and a win against Blackburn
That's 27 out of 30 (having lost to WBA).
