Good selection (it's almost what I would have picked ) surprised with the inclusion of JFC but I have no idea who has trained well and who has recovered from mid week.
I'm not digging you out because we are having a discussion on the chris solly thread, I agree with your formations based on the starting 11 but why would forster caskey be starting over purrington at left back?

On this if we play 3 across the back, I feel like Innis will probably be the CB. With his height and nastiness, and being a proper CB I imagine he will be the one to sit deepest.
That being said, he could be better on the ball than Pratley.

Sorry mate but that first bit is ridiculous... Wouldnt think that your digging me out purely because of another conversation on another thread!! - I agree though, having Forster-Caskey in a back four would be crazy with two Left-Backs left out, although Bowyer has done that before - Would be really surprised as a result if it doesnt involve Doughty as Wing-Back
I'm thinking that's us starting with a 3-5-2 with old man Prats at the back, flanked by the 2 new CBs.
Chuks up top to make the ball stick.
But I'm thinking our midfield is set up to provide Shinnie a platform to be playmaker, threading killer forward passes for Smyth and Doughty with their pace to exploit space behind their defence.

Their bench doesnt scare me though

I would guess. Midfield seems a little defensive to me. Full backs going to have to do a lot of the work.
who's up top?
But logically he's in a central midfield 3 alongside Watson, with Shinnie playing the '10' as CAM playmaker.
