This team is strong and balanced enough to win. Whether it will is a different matter, but I'm no more or less confident than I was yesterday.

Yep, warming up as a back 4.

Can’t think of a key player I’ve been less worried about having backups for.

Why the need for a CM? Despite various injuries we still have a strong starting midfield 3 and various capable backup options on the bench.

We’re playing a RB out wide because we’ve had to move Rudoni. We’ll see how Eccles does there, he’s looked better recently but I wouldn’t want him or Allen in for any extended period and Allen isn’t a player you bring on to change a game really.

Seeing rudi in the squad has given me added confidence today. Whoever started the rumours of rudi being out please stop the nonsense

Allen helped change the Boro game, we were much better when he came on.

Pressure is all on Ipswich. They need a result to close gap on autos. We have more than enough firepower. Guarantee Wolfenden comes on scores a late goal. Its the law dont you know

Surely we’re playing a RB out wide because we don’t have many wingers?

I’m more than comfortable rolling with Eccles and Allen for however long this injury crisis that hasn’t even happened yet lasts.

Surely the issue is out wide then if we have to move rudoni and have a cm on the bench.

It's like moaning that we don't have enough strikers if we have to put Bidwell in Goal because we had to put Simms back up front.

It’s a strong 11 and decent back up on the bench with Lati, Wolf, Allen and Wright. It’s a win for me.

I assume that the joke 'but we'd be 4 years late to the party' didn't land?

Yup.

I honestly can only see a defeat today and that's not me being over dramatic., I promise.

Torp and Saka are so important for us and I think we will miss them.

0-2.

Now go out and prove me wrong, you Sky Blue wonders!!!

Came on against Middlesbrough and helped steady the ship and we went on to get the winner.

I never used to rate him, but he's become a very useful sub under Frank.

Rudoni may have lined up out wide last week but he didn't give us any width.
Playing KKH wide with Rudoni freelancing makes sense to me

Is Rob Gurney on crack? Saying he still can't figure out if it's 3 at the back.

KKH is going to terrorise their full back every time if we keep playing those passes.

Presumably Torp was a late drop out
I think we always travel with an extra GK
