My worry is without Wright I guess Simms starts as striker. This will probably mean that BTA starts on the bench as Simms will need to be subbed. Therefore Eccles plays as 10 again which, although he’s a good player, he’s not a 10.

"Worry"

Simms has played with BTA plenty so not really sure what youre going on about

Consiracy No 1................. Wright ain't as injured as said but we told Poch he is, gives him 2 weeks off to get fit, come back in for the run-in, performs well and still gets in the National side for the WC. We give him a bonus for staying and everyone wins??

We’re better with Eccles in the 10 than BTA

Also whether Simms starts or not wouldn’t have any bearing on BTA starting

There’s 0 chance Wright would voluntarily skip the final international break before a home World Cup

Another 40 yard volley from BTA would be the cherry on the icing.

I was thinking about this the other day, BTA hasn’t really scored any long range bangers this season has he?

Maybe Sheff W? I can’t really recall if that was outside the box or not - nonetheless, it was a great finish.

I think he can but why would Simms need subbing?

It’s a bit of a blow if Thomas, Rudi and Wright are all out because that’s pretty much the spine of the team. It will be important for FTT and Grimes to play well but, as they are among our most consistent players, I’m sure they will.

I think it will be a score draw.
