I'd bring Taylor in. We need a semblance of balance.



Not sure how bringing in the worst left back in living memory achieves that though.

I'm agreed with everyone else that this should be a comfortable win.

Would be especially nice to see us keep a clean sheet but I fancy us to win 3-1.

If Hutton is out, then so would I.

We'll make hard work of it as normal but we'll eventually run out 3-1 winners after going a goal behind.

I don't think it'll be anywhere near as comfortable as some.

1-0, maybe 2-0 at a push.

That'll do me

2-0 would be refreshingly comfortable to be fair!

Retract that you blaggard.  Very unfair on B.Gallagher.

I'd freshen it up a bit as we expended a lot of energy on weds. Reminded me of the wolves game last season. Whelan, adomah and mcginn looked tired

Can't see el ghazi or green starting

So:

Nyland

Tuanzebe Chester Jedinak Taylor

Bjarnason

Elmo hourihane grealish adomah

Kodjia

Mate of mine is a Reading fan, thinks it will be 4-0 to us. Hope so.
