Markelo to get the winner.

Will be really interesting to see how he is used, if he makes the bench. If he gets minutes, it's likely to be at the expense of Esse or Tats. I don't see Esse playing no10. It's right wing or maybe left at a push. So essentially 3xRW in the squad. One won't play.
We dont know much about Markelo tbfMarkelo is a game changer and would a nightmare for opposition defences when they start to tire in the 2nd half. He’s just behind Doku with his dribbling stats in Europe.
Looking at the bench for the last game potentially Minny drops out of the squad.
But if EMC is in there as well it could be Bidwell out of the squad as well.

fingers crossed icon neededI reiterate what I said previously. I think we win 2-0 tonight, a goal near the beginning and a goal near the end similar to the final game of last season. I think Onyeka will prove to be a revelation and will show exactly what we've been missing. It's going to be a great night, the corner will be turned and we will look back at the blip between November and February and think "thank fuck we made it through that"

Good point..I'd add a goalkeeper and two fullbacks to that, otherwise I think we are a tad light defensively
We have given up more in the last few weeks.....
Yes, that Carrick.This the same Carrick that has changed how his team has set up in different United games?
Fans of all teams do talk shite.
The way some people are on here, it could be the last game of the season and we could be 7 points ahead and still some would be very nervous .
You’ve never seen him play a full game, you don’t half chat some shite. Let’s hope he’s as good as you say he isMarkelo is a game changer and would a nightmare for opposition defences when they start to tire in the 2nd half. He’s just behind Doku with his dribbling stats in Europe.

Wouldn't say he will be, but he most certainly could be.I really do think Onyeka will be the key tonight. I think he will shield grimes and allow him to dictate which is when our metromome is in full swing. Teams have pressured Grimes of late and he has his back to goal far too often for us to effectively play progressivley. Fingers crossed that ends tonight

Secret Weapon Markelo on the bench, I suspect.
You’ve never seen him play a full game, you don’t half chat some shite. Let’s hope he’s as good as you say he is
can you link me some of the 90 minute games, i'm interested to watch himI have actually. It’s called the World Wide Web and you can watch full 90mins games, highlights and read scouting reports and then you can form your own opinion instead of chatting half the shite you do to talk people down.
Guess what. You can do the same for Onyeka and form your own opinion.
It's my birthday, so the things I would like are
1. A good City win. Even more than usual and with the emphasis on the "good". It has to be better than Oxford!
2. Frank to spring a surprise. And not just a change in the centre-back pairing. Just something, anything, that indicates he appreciates that if you keep knocking out the same stuff do not be surprised if you keep getting the same result
3. Sakamoto on the bench. We have to start getting to the byline
4. Frank the Tank in midfield from the start (bet he doesn't)
5. Rushworth to a) continue to show his potential for taking throw ins and b) NOT be the MOTM
...and before you ask, 73. My first game was v Posh in Oct or Nov 1963, we won 3-2 in front of 29,002. Terry Bly scored.
Happy birthday Gibbo! 73 eh? 4 months older than me!It's my birthday.........
Sunderland in the play offs was much bigger.Theres been some big games at the CBS but call me crazy I don’t think there’s been one bigger than this. I’ve said before our season doesn’t revolve around one match but this one you feel it does.
Win today, go back top and beat the form team in second (well 1st atm) to put down a marker for the rest of the league and season. Lose and continue to go down the league with a whimper.
We’ve got to do our part and get the cbs rocking tonight and not just mumble the sky blue song like the last couple of home matches.
We want to be promoted, it’s now put up or shut up tonight as far as I’m concerned for both the players and us. PUSB
BTA still serving his suspensionYou could argue BTA is a striker and Esse a 10 (though I agree he looks too lightweight and indisciplined for it) then you’ve got Yang and EMC left Markelo and Saka right, Rudi and Esse middle and three strikers which would be pretty standard. Then Onyeka and Grimes as a 6 and Torp and Eccles as an 8. Can’t see us having five forwards on the bench but maybe.
Wilson, KKH, CB, CM, then Esse, Yang, Saka, BTA, Simms maybe? Very attacking bench but that’s where you want your options really.
Not sure it was imo but let’s find middle ground and say biggest league match at the CBSSunderland in the play offs was much bigger.
This is what I think it’ll be too apart from Esse in for EMC if he’s out.Rushworth

Thomas
Wolfenden

That is what I would start, and what I hope? Rudi plays like he did this time last year which saw him watched by premier teams. Wright to play like he did before the international break (everytime he goes on international break he comes back a shadow of the player he was before going). Thomas is the aerial threat he can be at set pieces. We sart believing in ourselve again.Rushworth

Normal service to be resumed to take that whichever way will as intended, covering all bases!Not sure it was imo but let’s find middle ground and say biggest league match at the CBS
