1-1 ,
cov goal coming from Max.
Could we see Robins go to 4 at the back with Ostigard suspended? He could also play Pask or Rose at the back , he has a few options

Boro tend to alter their formations quite a bit - would like us to still play two up top though none of the forwards playing currently are massively impressing me - for what he brings Walker has to start and he seems to need someone up with him as he cannot play the lone role.

For me I think we go 3-4-1-2 with the line up below - would like to see both Baka and Godden and use them both if forwards flagging.

Wilson

Rose Fadz Hyam

Dabo James Hamer McCallum

O'Hare

Walker Biamou

Subs: Marosi, Pask, Eccles, Shipley, Kelly, Allen, Gyo, Baka, Godden

Rose Fadz Hyam
Dabo Kelly James McCallum
O'Hare
Biamou Walker​

Marosi, Pask, Sheaf, Hamer, Shipley, Allen, Jobello, Bapaga, Baka. Would be a bonus if Godden was fit enough for bench but not expecting it.

Prob see Hamer come on around the hour for one of kelly or james and Pask replacing Dabo, although this may depend on how the game plays out.

One thing that could work in our favour is that if Rose comes in and has a solid game the following game when Osti is back available would mean Hyam, who is clearly in need of a rest, could drop to the bench in favour of Osti, Fadz and Rose.

Hopefully Robins will say that the ref should look out for fouls on O Hare - he needs some protection from the cloggerz

I've always thought that, but having listened to a few podcasts from players who played under him, he sounds a good bloke to me. Quite funny really.
I know someone who used to play under Warnock (a long time ago and not anybody famous!). He said pre-seasons were brutal. Warnock's approach was to beast them beyond belief - more than other managers. He was regularly physically sick during pre-season training and wasn't the only one, simply due to physical exertion.
No real relevance here, but thought I'd chuck my two pence worth in!

Rose, MacFasz, Hyam (hold my breath)
Dabo, Hamer, Kelly, Sam Mac
O'Hare Walker (O'Hare as a false number 9)

Either way no Max, mainly because if he plays, this board just goes full on obsessive.
We lack speed since Giles left, so I would like Bapaga to have a spin as sub

Edit senior moment only 10 players! James in midfield

Are we only playing with 10 players?

Assuming James is in there to to reach our quota it's an interesting thought about O'Hare playing more up top, with hamer probably playing more advanced than normal for him to try and get passes through to the front two.

I've no doubt O'hare would do the chasing etc job Max is having to do for Walker, but i think he might not have the physicality to compete with centre halves. Certainly doesn't have the height. He's also got the same problem as Max in terms of converting chances.

If Godden is fit he should play
alongside Walker with his type of injury if it’s not fully healed he shouldn’t be considered.
What happened to original Magwitch? Have I missed something? Will this one want Osti as a winger or Walker as a full back?!

Injury may have healed but even if it has he won't be fit (certainly not enough to start. 15 mins at best)
