Think you''ve got it spot on CA - though I have a feeling Lafferty may start with Morris coming on at some point second half, but it could be just as easily the other way around.

[ron obvious 1,074]

Agree with CA, but I think McGovern still needs some game time so will probably get the nod.

[AJ 768]

I''d imagine it''ll be a lot closer to our normal XI at this stage as the squad needs to gel and improve;

McGovern

Whittaker Bennett Bassong Brady (or play Martin @RB and Whitts LB if required)

Mulumbu Dorrans

Murphy Howson Canos

Jerome

Subs: Jones, Turner, Toffolo, Thompson, Maddison (if fit again), Naismith, Morris, Laffs

[AJ 768]

It makes sense to rest Hoolahan and Tettey given their age/fitness, and possibly Klose but I''d play Jerome as he needs to be scoring goals regularly again, and I''d play McGovern to help solidify him at the back, but I expect Jerome to only play 60 mins if he starts and Laff''s will play the rest.

[ec-p 49]

Can''t see Jerome starting, needs a rest, reckon

Laffs will get the next nod.

[It's Character Forming 801]

Did you see how Jerome looked towards the end of the game on Sunday ?  which was only two days ago ?

 

I wouldn''t be surprised if he''s not even on the bench, although as it''s a home game, AN might want the option of bringing him on.  But starting ?  Madness.

[It's Character Forming 801]

Generally I think it will be closer to the 11 changes predicted by the OP than a full-strength 11.

[Molly Windley 76]

This is the U23`s team that played yesterday against Stoke which looks like an U18`s only squad to me.Killip, Ramsay, Efete, Odusina, Lewis (Oxborough 83), Sambu (McIntosh

69), Adams, Jaiyesimi, Cantwell, Middleton, Ashley-Seal. Subs (not

used): Hackett-Fairchild, Higgs, Wallis. McGovernGodfreyBassongTurnerToffoloThomsonCanosMurphyMurphyMaddisonMorris4141

As AN alluded to, Coventry play with 4 in the middle 2 DM''s and 2 AM''s, I''d play a 442, look to get the ball out wide and pump crosses in for Lafferty/Morris. This game calls for a bit of old fashioned football imo :D

[Jim Smith 1,530]

No way Jerome should be risked. We simply can''t afford him to get injured in a game like this. Wes and Tettey also need a rest and In would not risk the centre backs either. Don''t know if either of Dorrans or Pritchard are ready for a run out but if not:

Jones

Martin Bassong Turner Toffollo

Thompson Madison

Canos Jo Murphy Ja Murphy

Lafferty

[lake district canary 3,197]

Opportunity for Lafferty.   Needs a good game to remind AN of his ability - and he does have ability - and even if he is not wanted ths season, a good shop window for him coming up to the end of the transfer window. 

[OldRobert 38]

As long as Jerome is not risked, I''d go with Diane''s team but with McGovern.

Same team, fringe/squad/younger players all need game time/something to prove not bothered about the result that being said cant see any reason not to be able to go out and get a result. On paper that team should have more than enough to beat a league 1 side. Should also help in identifying which players are good enough/will be for the Championship/Premier league.

Morris

no point playing lafferty AN knows what he can do and will never play him in the 1st team so might as well see if morris is up to it

[Diane 385]

Think the only ones we don''t agree on are Jones or McGovern and Morris or Lafferty.

Im hoping Morris gets his chance tonight as we know what Lafferty can do, dont mind about the goalie but would be good to see Jones

[Ernie 0]

Good point well made re:Lafferty so switch with Morris. Agreed re:Jones.

[norfolkngood 355]

All i hope is if any of the players play well tonight they are given the chance in the first team by AN

[SwindonCanary 398]

Looking at our second team and Coventry''s first team (if they play it) I believe we still have enough to win it !

[Diane 385]

Yes we should have enough to win with our 2nd 11 Swindon but I bet that Coventry will be well up for this one

[Feedthewolf 3,096]

TEAM: Jones; Whittaker, Martin (c), Bassong, Toffolo; Thompson; Canos, Maddison, Andreu, Ja. Murphy; Lafferty.SUBS: McGovern (GK), Mulumbu, Turner, Morris, Jo. Murphy, Godfrey, Grant.

[Jack Flash 2]

Going 4-1-4-1 so a bit more width then. Be interesting to see how the system works.

[Diane 385]

Wasn''t far out lol, 11 changes from Saturday''s starting 11.

Jacob is the only one who was involved and he was just a sub.

Wish I was going tonight, hate missing home games but not feeling so good so c''mon you yellows make me feel better

[snake-eyes 13]

Canos was used as a sub aswell Diane but yes 11 changes from the starting lineup on Saturday!

a good B team selection for a nothing game, cant complain if we lose, expect to see quite a few of these blowing after 60 minutes
