Team v Derby

Going to put up 2 teams as I’m not sure whether we should stick with 3 at the back or go back to 2 CBs

Daniels

Dalsgaard Konsa Jeanvier Henry

Kamo Sawyers Marcondes

Canos. Maupay. Benhrama

Subs: Balcombe, Moses, Sorenson, Oksanen, DaSilva, Watkins, Forss

Given who we have missing I quite like reverting to a back 4. So its a choice between Rico and Moses at left back.

I'd like to see a solid defensive 4 in this game and have KM and RS holding, possibly with EM in the hole. My only fear is that it's a very offensive 4 up top and I'm not sure if I'd trial it against Derby. I think 3-4-3 will the defensive 3 you highlight, hopefully Rico for Moses at LWB who'll swap to the other side. Canos probably gets the nod over OW. Just feels like I'm re-arranging the remaining chess pieces in a very small squad really.

If Rico doesn't make it Canos could play as RWB, but I'm not sure it'd work with EM infront of him against a good Derby side. Playing 3 CBs really causes a headache if you don't have sufficient cover in the squad, I don't envy TF at times.

It's risky to change formation and we're not going to implement the 4-2-3-1 from a couple of season ago. I hope Henry can get at least 60 minutes, with Odubajo on the bench, and I really doubt a starting place for Canós, so Watkins and/or Marcondes.

Marcondes to start and Rico if fit and hopefully Bentley and Barbet are back. I'll be there and this game will have cost me £690 and I'm banking on a win.

I'd like to see Sergi given a go at wing-back at home again, so I'd go for:

Daniels

Dalsgaard
Jeanvier
Konsa

Canos
Sawyers
Mokotjo
Odubajo

Watkins
Maupay
Benrahma

I don't understand the obsession with playing Canos as a wing back? He did ok, better than expected but I don't think that's where we'll get the best out of him and both Dalsgaard and Moses are way ahead of him at the moment..

We're not scoring goals at the moment, so added attacking threat. It caught Villa by surprise and could do the same again for Derby.

I think it's probably more likely to catch our defence by surprise!! :D
