Don't rate Bree at all on what we have seen of him so far. I think he will go with Bjarnason, but would not mind seeing Clark get a game.
Bruce will go with an experienced player so probably Bjarnason I reckon

I don't think Bree has done anything wrong when he has been asked to come in..rather him that Taylor any day.

Well micah richards is off limits.
I guess Taylor and Tuanzebe are still injured then?

I like that option of Chester at right back and either Jedinak or Samba as centre half.

Otherwise have to be Bree or BB but maybe have him right and hutton left. (or wherever Traore is)

Hutton is a definite.
Was concerning with Elmo at left having to come in on his right foot all the time.

So for me Bree or BB
Chester despite liking idea is to much of a change in defence /team.

He did well against Bolton

Against Cardiff I thought he really looked a liability

The position is right back and we have a young man, Bree, in our squad who plays right back. That's what we should do.

Bree has been fine lately, but if Taylor is fit I'll reckon he'll play left back with TSC switching to the right.

And he can also play left-back, so if they switch Traore to the left again Hutton would be able to follow him.

Is Tuanxebe out ? Presume so. He did a really good job against Sessegnon at Fulham, to the extent that they switched his position.

Yes. Injured.

Gone for Bikir, just because I think Bree maybe lacks experience.

Brew did fine against Cardiff when he came on and they play exactly like Boro.

Please god no. I've been hoping that we saw the last of Taylor when he set up Derbys goal.

Yep, same here.  He can't say that he hasn't had a fair crack of the whip, he's just very, very poor.  Not good enough for the Championship so a million miles away from what we'll need if we win the Play Offs.  If Elmo is out, it's Bree to come in I reckon, possibly with Onomah ahead of him to help stifle Traore.

Bree did very well recently against Cardiff, a definite promising player for the future. He can do a job on Tuesday if required. Cardiff was a big pressure game and he handled it well.

He'll complete our Xl.
