Who would you start against wolves?

looks like ralls should be fit.. i would go with:

etheridge

Bennett
bamba
morrison
manga

hoilett
paterson
ralls
grujic
mendez

zohore

id like to see pelts in for manga.


but agree that if ralls is fit id 100% play him.

Ralls is not fit so would stick with AG and Peltier in for Manga

Etheridge

Peltier
Bamba
Morrison
Bennett

Paterson
Ralls (Bryson if not fit)
Grujic

Hoilett
Zohore
NML

I would want ralls in there but wouldnt risk, i would play him against villa, AG for ralls

Think NW might bring Bryson in to man mark Neves. To accommodate that I think he might move Patterson over to the right support attack and drop Mendez.
Only othe question would be to stick with Manga at Rob or bring pelts in, but think he will stick with Manga.

So..

Etheridge
Manga
Bamba
Morrison
Bennett
Grujic
Gunnerson
Bryson
Hoillett
Patterson
Zohore

Etheridge

Pelts Manga Morrison Bennett
Bamba Ralls
Wildschut Paterson Hoilett

Zohore

Slightly negative at home but I think If we play on the break - this is the team to do it

Leaving Manga out is like leaving the last roastie on your Sunday dinner plate ... never gonna happen

Manga will be fantastic tomorrow night, I can feel it in my bones.

Etheridge
Peltier
Morrison
Bamba
Bennett
Gunnarsson
Ralls (if fit)
Grujic
Hoilett
Zohore
Mendez

I think Peltier will start mate but can't see Manga being left out either.

5 at the back or Bamba in midfield I think

It is interesting, I'd guess that it all comes down to whether Warnock wants to really get at them or if he's more concerned with stopping Wolves.

Whenever he has gone man to man on a player this season he's used Bennett as the marker as he seems to be quick enough to follow people.

Personally I think if you get at Wolves it unsettles them so we should just play our high tempo game and see where it takes us

The meanest defence in the league is down to Morrison Bamba and Manga and all three are fit so why on earth would you change it.

Manga is doing a job for us and like all players has a wobble but he Is part of the three that make up the backbone.

For me I think Peltier is a better tackler.
I've criticised Manga all season ( wrongly admittedly ) so i'd try and find a way to play both

Could be time for Madine and Zohore together

Etheridge
Peltier
Morrison
Bamba
Bennett
Gunnarsson
Ralls (if fit)
Grujic
Hoilett
Shore
Mendez

He's not fit

Etheridge

Peltier
Bamba

Paterson
Ralls (Bryson if not fit)
Grujic

Hoilett
Zohore

Agree with this.

This is the team I would like to see.
Gunnar to come on later in game to tidy up at the back, if needed.
Agree with this.

Etheridge

Bennett
Morrison
Bamba
Peltier

Gunnarsson
Ralls (if not fit, Damour)

Hoilett
Paterson
Mendez-Laing

Zohore

I've put Peltier back in to stop their wingers, I think it's they type of game where Peltier's no nonsense, streetwise approach in cleaning their wingers out is required.

I've gone for a high energy middle 3 to stop Neves playing, I can see Warnock asking Paterson to be as big a nuisance to Neves as possible. I think Paterson will be asked to press Neves all game to give him no time on the ball.

I've kept with Mendez-Laing as he's coming back into form and as a Brummie lad who had a spell with Wolves, he will be up for this one with a point to prove again.

Wolves' fans are negative, their players are admitting they're tired and with the right game plan to stop them, I think we can pick up the win, and even break them for the remainder of the season.

No way can I see Bamba in midfield,not with Grulic and now fit again Gunner available.

Freshen the side up and bring Mendez Laing and zohore on half time to punish wolves when they tired !

Gunner would be on the bench for me, his hearts not in it leaving n st season play someone who’s hungry for the Prem.

Etheridge

Peltier Manga Morrison Bennett

Extra protection tonight, break hard and fast and leave no space, hunt in packs !!!

I think we could see Bamba in Midfield too mate

Ideally:

Patterson

Manga’s been our weak link, last few games. Prefer Ralls to Gunnarsson.

If Ralls is fit then Ralls, Grujic and Paterson in midfield. Wouldn't risk him though. Think Gunnar will be far more impactful than Monday if he starts. Would keep with Mendez. Peltier at RB.

Bamba might man mark jota

Yeah , would go with this , would not start Mendez laing against wolves

As good as having Bamba in midfield could be I feel we would miss his ability to come across and cover fullbacks if he is man marking Neves . Would prefer he did a job on Jota instead

Especially considering the amount of crosses he blocks bamba seems to come across and make with those telescopic legs of his .

Don't think Gunnarson has done enough to warrant starting again and would like to see Grujic do a job on Neves
