I'm amazed that the 'leaked' team sheet turned out to be fake.

....and no sign of the one Sheff player who you told me was playing ;)

I said it was on that team sheet, I didn't say he was playing. So ner ner.

9 subs and only one of them is a defender

Taylor and Elmo.

Didn't you go for your walk?

I was counting Elmo more as midfielder.

No, I haven't gone out for my walk yet. It's as though someone kept me on the phone and delayed me finishing work ;) :)

Glad Fleck is out, must be the first time in history that a "doubtful" player hasn't started against us.

I have no idea how those 11 players fit into any form of formation.

Business as usual it seems.

Quite the team that , no real holding player there at all.Konsa look like he at RB

No Fleck is a major boost for us as he is one of their best players

That defence looks very worrying to me.

I don’t think I would have got that line up if I’d had 100 attempts.

I think Davis might be one of the breakout stars of this resumption. Injuries permitting obviously. Reckon Grealish will enjoy playing the ball into someone’s feet who will make it stick around the area too.

I thought it was a back 3 but can’t see a right back, so maybe not. I would have matched their 3-5-2.

I like Nakamaba  - I think we are pretty lightweight without him.

We don't seem to have named a right-back.. Unless Konsa can play there? I can't remember him playing there before. There again I'd forgotten Borja Baston even existed, so it's very possible.
