No need to change anything from the MK Dons game, but if MacDonald is fit I'd have him upfront instead of Grabban. If O'Connor is injured I'd bring in Spillane.

Pretty sure if Kev is injured Neilsen will start at right back, otherwise pointless bringing him in

I don't think Mac should just walk back into the team - looking forward to this one though. I sense a good win.
 

Team vs Tranmere

I would go for the same team vs MK dons, Grabban got a goal so I would like to see him start.
 

Team vs Tranmere

With the 3 loanees I have no idea what the team will be. Reed sounds like the sort of player most have been crying out for for ages though.

This is the most excited I have been about a game for ages.
 

Team vs Tranmere

Hard to guess as we don't know the injury position on some known players and we have 3 unknowns. I'm sure Neilson will come in if Kev is unfit, but have no idea how match ready the 2 youngsters will be - I'd be very surprised if they both started. We might just be getting some cover before 2 games a week for the next month or more

All the signings seem a vote of confidence in Forster - at least through to the JPT final - but perhaps not one from him to some of the current midfield
 

Team vs Tranmere

I would expect Neilson to play and 1 of the youngsters, maybe both to be on the bench

Interesting quote from Les Parry in this article

http://www.wirralnews.co.uk/tranmer...rds-is-parry-s-rovers-message-80491-28209851/

Tranmere struggled to cope with Brentford’s direct wrestling style when the teams met at Prenton Park in October.

sounds like they are ready for a physical battle - little do they know we now play tippy tappy football and are scoring goals like Brazilians.....

That is nothing but the truth haha! times have changed, and let's hope they won't even realise.
Forster has also had his chance to do his first bit of homework on a team, i'm so excited for tonight's game.

We didn't play long ball at all up there. That was the start of the run when we played some good stuff.

I would change the team as little as possible. No tinkering unless injuries dictate otherwise. More quality on bench to change things around if needed.Neilson in assuming KOC injured. Would quite like to see Bignall start if Charlie not fit.

I find it funny that Bean is not mentioned much only by a few people he was by far our best player at the MK Dons game??

change the team as little as possible so Neilson or Spillane in for Kev if he is injured, the latter on ther proviso he cuts out the fancy stuff and just defends

Neilson probably will start, but I really think Spillane is class and we shouldn't be leaving him on the bench IMO.

I didn't think he was our best player at MK Dons, but he certainly had a good game there and at Exeter in the previous match. I can't see the need to change things personally, and it's always a risk throwing in a 19-year-old with no competitive experience straightaway.

Injuries apart ....I would keep the same team.....Lewis ahead of CM on merit.....YOU REDS....:sorted:

Spillane has real attacking class, defensively he is very suspect. In the first half vs MK they barely had an attack down our right side, Kev was covering well and their winger was getting nowhere.

Second half Spillane came on and was backing off, their winger strolled past him several times. And despite all his attacking flair, he gets caught on the ball and rarely actually gets a cross into the box. He is one for the future, but his all-round game is suspect.

With Saunders playing right side (mostly) we dont have enough cover to play an attacking full-back too. I would rather have Kev keeping us solid to give Sam free roam to play without fear. If we play Spillane and Sam, neither of those players are defensively very capable.

If we have this Reed fella playing his creative midfielder part, I think Grabban is our best forward for making runs and latching onto through balls. Charlie and Alexander arent pacy and tend to play better with their backs to goal.

Lewis to start, and Charlie to replace him later and score a hat trick.
