A solid midfield, two very attack minded wing backs, our two man strikers both on the pitch, and 3 very high quality attack centric players off the bench?! No complaints here.

not really, if it’s giving them 15 minutes as opposed to 65+

Id rather have enough players that we didn’t have to change formation to rest some. Any time Saka an EMC play today is taking from their effectiveness against Birmingham.

I guess the only thing with the midfield it isn’t exactly creative but more defensive. So really the wing backs are going to have to be prime today.

Eccles and Allen can both be effective further up the pitch. Allen used to play regularly as one of the dual 10s and Eccles has played 10 all season.

I actually like the lineup. Would have had Wolf over Lati but other than that we are good.

I agree with every word of that.

The only thing I would add is that, although I would also have gone with Wolfendon, I do think Lati is underrated. He's fine as a CB in a back three and I'm sure he won't let us down.

4-3 City Two from Haji, one from Simms and one from Eccles. Three own goals by Lati for them.

All those players resting, plus Torp, JDS, and BTA out, and yet we still have a £200 million strike force up front

Weak squad my arse!

A quote from the Coventry Telegraph report of the line-up
".....he will form part of a back three along with Joel Latibeaudiere – making only his second appearance of the season – and Liam Kitching behind goalkeeper Carl Rushworth."

Kitching behind Rushworth????? That's unexpected

Wow this is a lineup I was not expecting. There is clearly still illness throughout the camp. Torp not even on the bench.
It doesn't look good tbh, but then what do I know?....

2 upfront, extra body in midfield, and wingbacks bombing forward and crosses flying in.
What's not to love???

A man light on the bench suggests that Torp's pulled out late

Does this happen to other teams? Not the first time we've had this issue, why would you not travel with a couple of extra players even if it's just kids getting some experience of being around the squad.

Resting can just mean not playing another full 90 mins!

Happy with 352. Other than question over which Allen we get I'm not too worried.

That's just Haji.

You have to include Simms as well, so it's actually £400 million

We play everyone inside anyway. They won't get in behind our defence now.

With JDS coming back against Brum we could have 5/6 players that have been rested. Which can only be a good thing as Brum will be on their arses today
