Who do you see stepping in for each?

Kitching for Lati seems fairly uncontroversial but Bidwell and Markelo would be a whole new left side and might not function as well as required?

Why are people saying Dasilva is a doubt, did he go off? If not, he's played a Tuesday night walk about friendly in Cardiff. He'd have put more effort into a training session at Ryton.

Worst case:

Rushworth
MVE, Thomas, Kitching, Dasilva
Grime, Onyeka
Tats, (Eccles, BTA, Esse, Markelo - choose 2 from 4!)
Simms

Which is why we're miles clear at the top. The squad is the best its ever been.

Exactly, I can't see Dasilva not playing

I am sure we will have enough to put out a good side capable of winning on Friday and an even better one on Monday at Hull when a few have had more rest from returning late.

This whole episode reminds me of the time Roy Carroll played a qualifier for Northern Ireland in one of the Eastern European countries, landed at BHX the morning of our game against Notts County where he played for them and put in performance of the season

If Rudi is good to go Asante moves to the left. Bidwell in at LB. I would worry about changing the whole left hand side so one of Dasilva or EMC probably will start, all I’m saying is I can also see them being rested

I see from that they have Hull's "expected" position in the table to be 22nd. Clearly a reliable methodology.

Were in such a strong position off the back of the Swansea result we can afford to give those on international duty/injured a rest on Friday if needed knowing that if we drop points it's not the end of the world, especially if it means the 3/4 that are held back are raring to go for Monday.

Derby seemingly struggling with squad issues as well. Lots of injuries to starting players.

Brereton Diaz played twice in New Zealand
Agymang played twice in USA

Latest rumour is Brewster is out.
Szmodics is out.
Zetterstrom & Vickers out (1st & 2nd choice GKs).
Langas out. Batth out.
Johnston out. Elder out.
Thompson out.

Wasn't my intention to be like that. More to point out we aren't the only side that maybe missing important players for this match.

and usually never 100% true too. Our new regime keeps injuries top secret until the last minute to keep opposition guessing and likewise from other teams

I think Dasilva will start, but come off after maybe 60 mins or so.

We play our strongest available team IMO
Rushworth
MVA. Thomas Kitching. DaSilva

Onyeka Grimes

Sakamoto. Torp. Thomas-Asante

Simms

Rudoni, Wright to sub on, if needed
Other subs ...
Wilson, KKH, Woolf, Bidwell, Eccles, Esse, Markelo.

Rest Lati and EMC.

EMC will be fine for 30 mins at least surely. Wouldn’t be hugely surprised if he starts

I should imagine they would have been preparing for this game all week and none of the players who have been away on international duty will be in the starting line-up. I think we'll go with KKH in for Dasilva, Torp for Onyeka and Kitch in for Lati.

If Da Silva is dropped it will most likely be Bidwell in. FL hasn't seemed to show much inclination throughout the season to play KKH at Lb unless absolutely necessary.

Mason-Clark didn’t play long last night, it’s not like they’ll be waiting in spoons for 2 hours before boarding a cramped economy seat with a screaming baby behind him.

The only international that might not start is Latibeudiere, but other than that we should have a full squad to pick from

I’ve got Mason-Clark coming on, in the 74th minute. Looked to play 46 minutes so not 100% considering the flight and jet lag

Best atmosphere of the season inbound I think, I do not know anyone who isn't going to the pub for midday to watch the Boro v Millwall game and having a day on the ale

With both teams having some key players out/tired, i think this will be a bit of a slugfest. I think whoever wants it more will be the key rather than any slick peformance. Hopefully the premier league carrot gives us the edge. 1-0 cov
