What's the latest team news


BLUEBIRDS: :bluebird:

The Bluebirds will be without captain Sean Morrison for the trip to Rotherham, with the defender having been taking off in the midweek clash against Wycombe.

Morrison has to undergo a scan on his ankle ligaments, but has to wait for the swelling to go down before that happens.

It will likely mean another opportunity for Filip Benkovic to impress, having endured a poor debut at Adams Park, or perhaps even an opportunity for Sol Bamba.

Key trio Kieffer Moore (hamstring), Jordi Osei-Tutu (hamstring) and Lee Tomlin (groin) are also missing, while there are a few knocks and niggles from midweek which Harris hopes are not too serious.

Isaac Vassell is the long-term absentee.




Rotherham:

For the Millers, who have been hit by a number of coronavirus cases in recent weeks, a few of their players are doubtful.

Angus MacDonald, Matt Crooks and Billy Jones are among those who could to miss out as a result of the Covid-19 outbreak.

I know it’s paper talk but It does make me laugh that Benkovic may be dropped after a poor game (personally I don’t think he was that bad apart from being out jumped for the first goal).
If Harris dropped players after one poor game Nelson would be one in then one out, and so would a few others.

I agree,1st game for months and he did show glimpses of what we can expect.He certainly look far more comfortable on the ball than many previous centre halves than I can remember down the city.
