He needs to play on this occasion. To deal with AERIAL  threat of Dadi Bodvarsson .

Elmo as an attacking player at home to reading is so unnecessary.

Rather have Green or Adomah.
Very loyal to Elmo but he not the one to be starting this match

Is El Ghazi typically wide right or wide left?

I thought wide right, but with Elmo in the side, I assume he will play wide left (in which case do we have another player out of position!).

Not necessarily popular on here, but Whelan has been good this season and was again the other night - tough on him missing out. I think there Bjarnason could be a good player but he doesn't show it often enough for me.

His selection only works if it signals that he will get a proper run of games, if not, then the inconsistent (sometimes anonymous) performances will continue. UTV

Elmo at RW and Axel at RB is two wasted position, both offer very little going forward. Would rather see an out of form Albert play right.

Disagree that Axel doesn’t offer anything going forward.

Either way he'd be better than Jedi at CB.
