2 of the 3 that missed the last game are back, the other will hopefully be Ipswich

We are all guesstimating on the availability of the players , but for me , IF Kitchin is missing, Wolfie is there & ready to play his part , as he did at Southampton .
Saka will hopefully be back & with Ephron being on fire , their full backs will be working overtime, to stop the crosses going in .

I like this if we had our core back 4. You’d play grimes/Rudoni with sakamoto and EMC assumedly so your dropping Torp for Simms… Unless your not playing Tats and Rudoni is on the right 442…. as the squad gets better, when all fit, the choices get harder - each question of who to play becomes who to drop. However, missing Kitching and JDS, chance we’ll see a back 5 rising - Torp still needs to be dropped in this model though…

Sounds like it’s 4231 if Bidders is back. I’m guessing:

Rushworth
MvE Thomas Woolfenden Bidwell
Torp Grimes
Saka Rudi EMC
Wright

S: Wilson, Lats, KKH, Brau, Eccles, Allen, Simms, Andrews, Perry

I’d go Brau and Simms, but he won’t and I do sort of get it.

Bidwell will limit us offensively but he’ll likely be asked to hold his shape and keep it tight defensively. Hoping we score 1 or 2, so he can give Brau a go with a bit less pressure.

Simms was unlucky to be dropped and I’m not sure Wright has justified the decision yet. But it’s very clear Wright is Franks main striker so I can’t see him being dropped.

If Saka isn’t fit I’d go 532 but don’t think he will from what people are saying.

Yep I think it’s not so much playing two up front it’s moving forward more quickly

I'd normally agree about Simms over Wright but I've a feeling Wright is about to go on one of his scoring streaks

The thing that worries me about today is the expectation. Get a feeling it will be very flat in the ground, people will be waiting for something to happen and the pressure is all on us, so bit of a free hit for them. Ipswich on the other hand I think it is the opposite, crowd will be up and really fancy us in that game. Just get the job done today. Would take a scrappy 1-0 all day.

I hope not because it doesn't help us at all.
Egos need to take a back seat.

I think at this moment even Frank Lampard isn't sure about the team he'll put out.

Fitness tests probably happening at Ryton in a few hours.

Still cant believe some are panicking because we may have Kitching out? Who gives a fuck? Hes not likely to be missed against Swansea ffs.
So much negativity from so many pussies!
Let's go get the job done then party like its 1999.

We need any kind of a win, any. They will sit in and try and nick one, Ipswich need a win so will be far more an open game. That said and an early goal for us and we could blow them away by half time

You will always have leaks whilst players socialise with supporters.
