So what's your line up to face the Baggies? 20:47 - Oct 23 with 2393 viewsGlasgowBlue

I think we need some stability moving forward.

Walton
Furlong
O'Shea
Greaves
Davis
Matusiwa
Cajuste (but KM shouldn't be afraid to bring on Nunez earlier than usual if Cajuste is tiring)
Jaden
Akpom
Sindre
Azon

And remember. It may have been an awful week but going into the Boro game we were second in the form table and had just beaten the scum convincingly.

To be fair, most teams beat the scum convincingly, so not sure that’s a particularly good indication of where we are. 11 games in all competitions this season and just three wins.

It will be

Davis

Azor
Cajuste

Egeli
Sammy s
Philogene

Hirst


Why revert to Hirst? No criticism just interested in your logic.

I feel like we'll just get more of the same if he starts on Saturday.

His confidence is shot at the moment. a confident Hirst would have buried that chance that Jack Clarke put in on Tuesday. Instead he took a touch (a poor one) that he didn't need to.

Better to take him out of the firing line and hopefully take hsi chances in later stages of the game.

Azon should have scored from McAteer cross in second-half on Tuesday.

Hirst deserves another chance to rebuild his self-belief from the start.

A striker who gave Chelsea's defence a proper run for its money at The Bridge earlier this year is good enough for The Championship.

It's a confidence issue, accentuated by an under-performing team, but it can be easily restored with a couple of goals from open play.

agree in principle but you could say that we've already done that for most of the season, and his finishing has been really poor.

Surely now time to do the same with Azon - i was disappointed to see him come off against Charlton, maybe he needs a goal to get up and running

The logic is solely who I think KM will pick.

I've not rated hirst this season but still think KM will pick him based on his pressing for tomorrow.

Matusiwa
Nunez

Clarke
Humphreys
Philogene

Azon


Before anyone comes in and bemoans that Humphreys won't even be in the squad. I know, but it's who *I* would line up with. I don't think anyone has thrived in that No.10 role yet and Humphreys just had a season where he was probably one of, if not the best 10 in League 1.

I'm also a fiend for having 'one of our own' in the team. Sorry not sorry

I'd play Johnson at right back because I think he offers more than Furlong or Young going forward, and we've struggled down the right this season.

The central 10 is the problem position IMO.

Since McKenna has been at the club, only Chaplin has consistantly worked in that position.

Hutchinson often went out of the game there and was generally more effective from the wing. Szmodics is all effort, but doesn't have the skill to unlock defences. Akpom looks uncomfortable with the ball to feet and wants to be running into space.

I've seen Nunez mentioned as a possible 10. What about Azon? His best attributes seem to be his control and turning with the ball. I think that is what we need there - probably the closest skillset to Chaplin.

Will we see less playing out from the back with Walton in goal? I do wonder if that might influence selection.

Whatever it is it needs to stay fairly consistent - ie not 5/6/7 changes every week
I'd go for

Walton
Furlong
O'Shea
Greaves
Davis
Cajuste or Nunez
Matisuwa
Jaden
SS
Clarke
Azon

I'd consider dropping O'Shea as he has been woeful the last couple of games and does not seem to have the leadership we need on the pitch. Kipre and Young to replace Greaves and O'Shea for me. Bring Matusiwa back with Jens. Azon up top with Sammy sitting behind. Sindre one side and Billie the other.

I would try Akpom as the number 9 but i'm sure that is too radical at this stage. The other 2 strikers just don't look like scoring either.

Presumably we'll reverty back to the Middlesborough team bar Palmer.

Dropping Clarke after he was our best player would be criminal.


Thought he was rubbish last game, Philogene has to start.

Akpom was sublime with ball to feet & his back to goal on Tuesday!

I would go for this but Kipre in for Greaves.

I thought Hirst did well when he came on Tuesday, he was strong and his hold up play was good, neither him or Azon have the scoring touch at the moment but I think Hirst can do a little more for the team than Azon
