    .............McCarthy.............

    ......Jack.....Wes.....Ryan

    Josh....Lemina...Pierre... Dusan

    ...................Boufal.....,.......

    ......,,,..Gabbi ......,..Carillo


    Happy to change personnel with Oriol for Lemina or even JWP for Boufal, or others, but I like his shape.

    I agree re JPW and set pieces but I find it astonishing that, in general, many pro footballers cannot deliver an accurate kick with a perfect ball placed on a perfect surface. Any of our team should be able to achieve that.

    I agree, and I also find it astonishing that very few professional footballers, even at the highest level, are very reluctant to use both their feet to kick or dribble the ball.

    A tad narrow at the back, with that line up. Very attacking.

    Dusan and Josh give width, up and down.

    Agreed. I’ve never been able to fathom that. Beckham apparently mastered with extra hours on the training ground. Who would have thought!

    I can't tell if you're on the windup with Tadic playing the left side on his own

    I’m going for it. Ryan can drift over and cover.

    No. Keegan style. The fans wanted us to go for it.

    This game now lines up like the time Bristol rovers best us in the 5th round around ten years ago...we were managerless at the time and lost to division 2 opposition....#pessimist

    I don’t mind us going for it but you are forgetting one very important thing.
    We can’t score goals except against WBA

    I'd suggest that the last hour is bad news for Wigan.
