    Don’t they know that German is spelt with a G not a C.

    Flat 3 with wing backs or diamond with Bielik holding? I personally think the 11 named fit better in a 3412 with Fosu ahead of Lapslie and Aribo

    Steer
    Solly Bauer Pearce Stevenson
    Bielik
    Lapslie Aribo
    Fosu
    Taylor Grant

    Or to match up their 3-4-1-2:

    Steer
    Bauer Bielik Pearce
    Solly Lapslie Aribo Stevenson
    Fosu
    Taylor Grant

    Looks to me as though we're going toe to toe with them

    Steer
    Bauer | Bielik | Pearce
    Solly | Aribo | Lapslie | Stevenson
    Fosu
    Grant | Taylor

    Is the only reason I can think of Stevenson being ahead of Sarr because the former is the only one to play Wing-Back on the left other than Page

    Agreed. It's still a weird team for me though. If you want a wingback why not Marshall? He's not perfect there, but then neither is Stevenson, and Marshall has really improved in recent weeks.

    I'm also kind of confused by Lapslie being picked ahead of Reeves. It makes more sense in a 3-5-2, and I thought Lapslie had his best league game for us against Burton, but I still feel he's raw and can get caught out at times.

    I am hoping the latter.

    Yeah Bowyer's comments post Burton were strange with Lapslie... i.e. Was almost moaning about his lack of positional discipline yet complementing him at the same time, yet because of that I thought he'd end up being dropped for todays match - With regards to Marshall I guess he's just unlucky in the respect that he'll struggle to get ahead of Solly in that defensive / wing back role

    I agree with Bowyer about his lack of positional discipline.

    With Marshall, he's left-footed, I think he's looked better on the left wing, why not try him at LWB?

    That seems the most likely line up.

    I don’t reckon he’d trust the kid Stevenson at left back of a four just yet, so it’s gotta be 3-4-1-2. Which looks suited for me.

    I hope we see a much improved Belik.

    Stevenson is a very brave selection but is justified on current form .. all the best Toby

    Prefer Bielik at CB so would rather that was a 3-5-2.

    Very young team, not convinced by that midfield, they struggled away at Burton.

    He is very, very two-footed. But naturally left-footed I'm almost certain. His delivery with his left has certainly been better for us.

    I reckon it's still Bowyer's regular diamond ...... he's brought Stevenson in because of his willingness to get up and down the line, to give width to the diamond when attacking.
