What's the plan then? For me play all our best offensive players to try and make up for the loss of Maja.
I know I said Cole must play, but on reflection. I just can't do it.
Palmer
Furlong Bartley Heggem Styles
Fellows Molumby Mowatt MJ
Grady Grant
Subs; Wildsmith, Holgate, Taylor, Diakite, Swift, Wallace, Bostock, Cole, Cleary
Also... Could Fellows play down the middle? With Grady out right? Good movement and pace in behind? Or are we just losing his productivity?

Just put Cole in and leave Grady on the subs bench.

I'd be tempted to go 451 / 4141 as I think we look better with Diakite. Maybe push Mowatt up a bit.

I imagine it will still be Brunt and Damia in the dugout as TM won't have had a training session ahead of the Stoke match.
Going forward I'd expect to see Swift or Grady come into the team, and for us to play with more freedom in that number 10 role than CC's system. These are both players I expect TM will like. He's typically always played/preferred a 4231/433 combination.
If TM was picking the line up I'd say
Palmer
Styles
Heggem
Bartley
Furlong
Mowatt
Molumby
Johnston
Swift
Fellows
Grant
But I think we will see Diakite and probably Cole in tomorrow.

Just took a look at the play-off losing team line up. Fucking criminal we didn't go up with that side:
31 Republic of Ireland Dean Kiely
20 Republic of Ireland Paul McShane Yellow card 40' downward-facing red arrow 71'
4 England Chris Perry Yellow card 65'
34 Nigeria Sam Sodje Yellow card 37' downward-facing red arrow 81'
3 England Paul Robinson ©
19 Wales Jason Koumas
8 England Jonathan Greening
11 Hungary Zoltán Gera downward-facing red arrow 71'
16 Slovenia Robert Koren
15 Senegal Diomansy Kamara
21 England Kevin Phillips
Would rather talk to ChatGPT
