Betts recalled which may mean less of the playing out from the back. Not much width except on the bench. But pretty much a team I think should do well enough.  Good luck to them.
The above IS NOT A LEGAL DOCUMENT. It is an opinion.

We may yet hear the horse talk.

I can stand my own despair but not others hope

Jok has clearly been reading my emails. 
But Sess at left back is dissapointing, he should be further up the pitch.

Well he obviously started reviewing the goal keeper situation but then obviously lost the plot (again), still no Kamara, who is going to be the phantom No. 9 this week, Ream?? Not impressed, sorry!!

Kamara should be playing from the start. I agree with the Keeper being changed, but Sess at left back is now no longer a joke.
Well if we come unstuck today, Jok has left himself open to criticism. If we win, he has got away with it. But he has made his own bed, and it could ba a bed of nails, and he will have to lay in it.

Can't Johansen play at full back?

Let's just see what happens. People wanted Betts, you got him. Curious if the false-9 is in play again, and what the approach will be in attacking sequences. They were shortchanged for its full effect in the previous match, so hopefully we can see it in all its glory lol.

All eyes will be on Betts, but he has an opportunity to cement his place in the team again.
It's unfortunate for Button, as there are others playing today who need to give themselves a kick up the backside, as it's not just Buttons fault, he was only part of the issues.

Sky sports has the team as Kebano and Ojo playing as two up front.

Not how I would read the team sheet but it's interesting to see how else you can shuffle those players around. It's a mailable team sheet that's for sure.

Happy to see Betts in. Odd to see Mollo in the 18 again, first time since wolves no?

Happy to see Graham getting a look in again, he can't do much more to shout for a starting spot then what he's been doing lately in the U23s. Sad to see Edun's run in the first team come to an end.

As you say, let's see what happens.

That's because  it's how the formation is  given on the  Offal - which isn't always reliable  as to how we actually line up.


grandad

Even the Offal are confused. First they had us lined up 3-5-2 & now have changed it to 4-2-3-1. I hope the players know where to go.

I have no problem with a two up front. Kebano and Ojo are good combo, then the workhorse Johansen more advanced is fine by me. Hopefully we can overwhelm them as much as possible and see some quality opportunities from direct play.

Fingers crossed for a win today + a good performance, virtually no golf for me (on Saturdays lately...lol) for some reason I have been staying at home to listen to our matches, if we don't perform today I will definitely be playing golf next weekend!!!

If we don't win today. I suggest that Fulham Join you next weekend at the 19th hole.
