Really struggling, can't even pick an X1. Don't really want Sawyers or KK starting as this will be a battle

Struggling to pick a team for this, really think Yennaris needs a break though - I'd probably have rested him yesterday in preparation for Saturday.

Team Vs Burton

-------------- Bentley ---------------

-- Colin -- Dean -- Egan -- Field --

--------- Woods -- Barbet ----------

---- Clarke -- Sawyers -- Canos ---

---------------- Vibe -----------------

Bench: Bonham, Henry, Yennaris, Kerschbaumer, Jozefzoon, Jota, Hofmann


Most importanly, Henry needs a rest, Yennaris needs a rest and Jota needs a rest. I can see some raised eyebrows at Barbet in CDM and maybe it's a bit of a knee-jerk reaction of mine after last night, but I honestly think he'd do well there. Yennaris physically can't manage 90 minutes at the moment, so for that reason he simply shouldn't be starting. I'm sure the Brentford doctors know best, but I worry that after a while we'll start to do more harm than good with him. I assume McEachran is still not quite fit enough to start and Reece Cole isn't ready, so that leaves us with little other option. Maybe if it really is the worst experiment of all time then Yennaris can just come on for the second half. If McEachran's fit enough for the bench though, I'd say leave Yennaris at home and use him for that switch. Alternatively we could just leave both at home and have Cole on the bench.

Jota's been anonymous the past 2 games and looks spent, understandably so after playing basically no football at all for about a year before he came back. Leave him on the bench for this one, then restore him to the starting lineup after the international break when hopefully he'll be a little rejuvenated. Clarke's barely played since Jota, Canos and Jozefzoon appeared, so you'd think he'll be desperate to stake a claim and will approach this one with bags of energy.

Hofmann as our striking option on the bench purely by default, but if Smith really has no intention of ever utilising him and would still rather play Canos as a target man, then we might as well leave Hofmann at home too and bring Shaibu back, as he has looked decent in his brief cameos so far.

Why not? Really not much difference player for player against last nights side...plus a couple of faces in here who should be desperate to prove a point too!

Not a million miles away for me. I've been calling for Barbet to have more game time for a while and Clarke is the obvious replacement for Jota. And why not start Hoff against a side like Burton? If he's getting nothing, have Vibe on the bench but frankly its hard to see a rejuvenated Vibe doing the miles on Saturday up there.

McCormack in for this one with Dean and Egan behind him. Bentley behind them. Then build the rest with a bit of pace round that solid spine.

I would start with Cole I place of Sawyers, I think Cole will put more into a game than Sawyers and he pretty good taking free kicks ( another B Squad one yesterday) He would have cover behind with Woods and Barbet

Blimey! Maybe if Bjelland's fit, we can play him alongside Dean at centre back, with Egan and Barbet in front... keep it tight, Brentford!

This for me. I don't know if Barbet can do this, but we need something different. Cole should be on the bench as he needs game time so he is experienced as we may need an alternative. If not Barbet, then AB. I would also like to see Macca play if fit, but I'm presuming he isnt. It will be a battle, but we need some creative play and that falls to Sawyers. The oterh option is to start Canos and FJ, with Canos on the right.

Is Josh likely to be fit in time for sat?

Depends who you listen too.DS said last week that Burton was the game that both Josh & AB should be back for .A poster yesterday suggested an "insider" had said he was 2 weeks away?Who knows?

How about reverting to 3 at the back for this one?

I know the consensus is that this didn't work but given the personnel available plus those needing a break I could possibly be considered.

Hoff in the 10....really?
Click to expand...

Why not? We struggle to hold onto the ball when it's punted up. In fact I think he was brought on for that reason in the match at the weekend and made a number of good layoffs from pretty much that position. Sawyers does nowhere near enough imo and at least with him we have an outlet for the others around him to play off.

Some of the teams on here are absolutely bonkers!

Smith said apart from Jota, fatigue is not an excuse, so how about we only make 1 or 2 changes, and get a reaction from the rest of them, with results/performance stats determining how many days off they have during the International break??

Didn't he say before the last game he needed to freshen up the team?

As above but I would put Clarke in from the start and put Jota on the bench, seeing as Smith has said he's knackered.

It would be interesting to bring on the Spanish pair on 60 minutes and move Josefzoon to the middle...

Far too sensible. McCormack MUST play, even though he's injured and has spent most of the season in B&Q. He will bring much-needed steel to our midfield, even if it's just to trip the opposition with his zimmer frame. I just have this feeling that he could be our Thierry Henry.

Bob the Kitman in for Jota.
