Can't see Pearson starting, his lack of match fitness was highlighted by himself and by Del.

I think this will be the line up.

GK: James
RB: Skuse
CB: Fontaine
CB: Nyatanga
LB: McGivern
DM: Cisse
CM: Elliott
CM: Kilkenny (With freedom to roam forward)
AMR: Adomah
AML: Woolford
ST: Maynard

Bench: Gerks, Wilson, Bolasie, Pitman, Pearson

Hard to oversee the starting eleven against WH. Pearson on for Wolly ht a no brainer.

Think we should have 2 up front.

1 up front at home worries me....

Agreed, but who do you drop to accomodate the second striker? By all accounts Kilkenny has been man of the match for the last two games in that more attacking role. This means one of either cisse or elliot, Elliot would run around more and have more presence however doesn't have the discipline to sit which restricts kilkenny. Cisse has this natural ability to sit however won't offer much with regards to energy.

To me the only change i would perhaps make is pearson for woolford otherwise i'd leave it and bring Pitman on of needed.

No Skuse or Elliot? And only one up front at home?

Been out tonight?

[leylandsroad]

Firstly, It will not be two up front, his interview after the Birmingham game he said he doesn't normally play such an attacking formation.

If he changes the team from West Ham he must be crackers. Pearson in on the bench should be the only change.

We need to forget this playing at home bollox, look where it has got us so far.

Stay organised and disciplined. Keep working on the set pieces and sneak a 1-0 win.

That will be all.

No Albert in the match day 16. And indeed 10 players. Interesting.

[Esmond Million's Bung]

This is a really tough call for the manager. Change from the last 2 games?, I suppose that leaving out Woolford would be most likely but then as Del said in interview this week Woolford has given us more balance which has appeared to have helped Mcgivern to improve. I wonder if he might sacrifice Elliott to go 2 upfront at home.

This is where he'll start earning his money, the good thing is St Johnstone fans tell us he is usually very quick to change things if they aren't going well.

[boatman]

I suppose if he can get 1 up front to work, we can give it a whirl and see how it goes.

As long as it is better than the Millen 1 up front middle it cannot do any harm.

Stead (gk), nickyhunt (rb), Stewart(lb), mcallister (cb), bolasie(cb), Maynard(cdm), pitman(cdm), Elliot(rm) and jcr(lm)

I think for this game we could see Cisse on the bench.

James

Skuse
Fontaine
Nyatanga
Mcgivern

ADomah
Elliott
Kilkenny
Woolford

Pitman
Maynard

Gerken
Spence
Cisse
Bolasie

Agreed - one up front is fine if he has supporting players around him when we are in possession. That's happened the last two games, but not under Millen - when he played one up front, Maynard was isolated and we were still crap defending.

[eric04]

Same team, except Pearson for Woolford I suspect.

[CiderSomerset]

Get me and the fancy pic! haha

[chipdawg]

I think his only nod to a more attack-minded set up for a home game may be Bolasie in for Woolford. If they attack in numbers as they did against Barnsley, no one will notice that it's one up front

[Tom]

Nice website! I should think we will operate a little bit more akin to my graphic, but you are almost there. (my opinion of course)

[CiderSomerset]

Nice website!

Its easier than typing out a load of names and trying to explain formations etc...

The only problem is that you have to use the presets. In my graphic I'd like to place Kilkenny slightly further forward than Elliott but it isn't really possible.

If we do this the BBC will be in chaos! Didn't you notice in the highlights of the Wham match they called Bolaise Adomah?!

I nearly posted about that, but thought I'd check what he said first and never got round to it! I would infer that it was racist, but unfortunately I think it was just a shoddy, poorly researched voice over

Albert has been sent off for being a smart arse.

The reporting wasn't of a high enough quality for it to be considered racist!
