No Grabban as Bruce has said he wants to see him practice for a week. So expect him to score a few in the second half vs the Noses next week.

My only criticism is that bench again.

Would've had Grabban on the bench.

He's match fit isn't he?

No Bruce said yesterday he needs a week of training as he hasn’t played for a month.

We must have started doing training these days then. Probably why results have improved.

Green for Whelan is the obvious bench change

agreed. Against Burton at home we don't need to DM players on the bench.

I don’t think Bent has made their side so at least that won’t be happening.

But Whelan has done extra hours on his stepovers, lollipops and rainbow flicks.

Probably though I’d rather he worked on passing to players wearing the Aston Villa badge.

It wouldn’t have happened if he was playing for them either.

Same 18 as the other night? Hope they won't knacker themselves. I want to see Green, Hepburn and O'Hare on the bench or at least one of them. Otherwise they should be playing on-loan to someone in League One.
