Need Lee Martin’s energy and work rate which will be a massive advantage. It would also be a massive advantage if we could have 12 players but I was found out.

Bring out Dickenson and play 3 at the back would be my change to bring it to 11.
I am still uncertain about Dickenson.

Yes 12 players would be great 😂

In that case it sounds like he's already been transferred out of the club, and that an injury would jeopardise the transfer, which is no surprise, but a big blow to our promotion hopes in my opinion.
Don't see it like that at all. Matt feels Sparkes has a big career ahead of him but to play him now would be too soon and could undo his recovery from a serious injury. Be very surprised if there was an offer in for a player that has yet to prove that he can return to full fitness.

Ward in Goal and Deano at LB otherwise seems a good starting line up.
Deano still self isolating ;)

Is this game free to view on Sky? I heard that Sky were making games free to view until the end of the season.

Interesting that most people are preferring Ward to Maxted. Before he broke his arm Ward was very impressive but I thought Maxted was looking even better before his own injury.

Maxted has made one or two gaffes but Ward has looked even more suspect, which is perhaps understandable given his time out with injury. Maxted has also made some incredible saves too so i'd have Maxted 100% right now.

That was 3 months ago. I'd see who looked sharpest in training over the past 2 weeks and pick them

I think I would have randell Williams and Dickenson as Wing backs in a 5 at the back. Then have to drop Archie or Jake (probably Archie). I would then switch the formation in the return leg.
Sometimes I wonder if Nige would be better further upfield. He's got talent and seems he's a bit wasted in a defensive role

Agree about Maxted, saves against FGR home and away were incredible game savers, I'd choose Jonny.

Fair point Snoop.
