I know, I know....
Never change a winning team. How can you change a side that’s won 6 in a row.
But with us paying Sunday, Wednesday and then Saturday morning, I’d be tempted to give a few a rest, so they’re fresh for Blues.
Wigan may be in free fall but it will still be a tricky game at a ground we don’t do very well at usually, so I wouldn’t change too much.
Team for Wigan
Johnstone
Ferguson Ajai Hegazi Townsend
Barry Sawyers
Phillips Periera Edwards
Austin
Team for Blues
Johnstone
Ferguson Ajai Bartley Gibbs (if fit)
Livermore Sawyers
Phillips Periera Diangana
HRK

Gibbs looks like he’ll be out for a while again. Bartley might also.
I think I’d only change that, but Slaven will know how they’re doing individually. The squad will be mixed about a bit soon I think.

I'd be amazed if we see Gibbs, even if it was merely a tweak, I wouldn't risk it. Agree we probably should rest a few though.

I thought he may consider changes for Wigan before the injuries picked up today, what with Blues on early Saturday
Can’t see Furlong not starting, also think Barry and Sawyers is risky, either/or for me, need Livermore’s energy, feel Krovinovic is the replacement for Jake, I’d go with this Wednesday
SJ
Furlong Hegazi Semi Ferguson
Barry Livermore
Edwards Pereira. Phillips
Austin
Diangana took a knock so I’d have as a bench option, I’d want both strikers on the bench, also not sure Bartley would be risked
Strong as we can be for Blues, which would be the same team as today, or Furlong for Gibbs if out

Don't change a thing apart from Gibbs who I suspect we won't see again until March, Blues and Wigan will both play twice this week and have inferior squads to us.

Let's not worry about Blues until Thursday. Concentrate on Wigan first and foremost. I wouldn't change the line up. Although I expect Gibbs to be out with Furlong moving to right back and Ferguson left back.

Slav was talking about a mask for Bartley within minutes of the final whistle. He wants his strongest team
