If Bruce sends the team or trying to win I think we will. If he sends us out not to lose we likely will.

I liked how we looked when Jedinak came on against the filth, I'd go:



0-2 or 1-3.

Odonah on the right wing! Are you Steve Bruce? Tactics Dim strikes again.

Whelan out of that line up, Onomah in his place and Snodgrass on the right (even though I think he has been quite poor recently).  Bench would be:

Steer, Hutton, Samba, Whelan, Lansbury, O'Hare, Hogan

Agreed, Tom. Whelan deserves a rest. Onomah in his best position alongside Jedi but with the freedom to get forward. Hourihane's threat is wasted by Bruce when he plays him so deep. Undecided between Hutton and Taylor. Preston work extremely hard, get in your face and press superbly. Even with their dodgy defence we'll need every player to be right up for it and as fighters go, they don't come more determined than Hutton. If Bruce goes with Taylor I really hope he goes out there with a point to prove.

Squad wise we have an embarrassment of riches but tonight we need to show the battling side of our game as we did against Fulham, as well as the talent, not the half asleep, tackle dodging, hoofing we saw against the Rags. It should be a cracking game I just hope Bruce can send the team out to win and come back down the M6 with 3 points.

Is there no TV for this match because of the Champions League matches?

Would take a scrappy 1-0 win tonight.

Hopefully we go 442 with Davis and Hogan up top.

Disappointing with an opportunity to freshen up after limited rest there's only 1 change
