Not sure if CH will leave Lolley out. We need the old Lolley back and I think we will have that if he gets a few more games under his belt. I would swap Mighten for Lolley or maybe keep Mighten and drop Taylor.

We actually have pretty strong options in that attacking three now. 5 players that look like they can contribute (if you include Carv) so Mighten playing as a striker would allow us to fit another one. 

Seemingly strong links to another winger too.

Zinck surely has to play and Johnson so it's a battle for the last spot I guess.

Fornah to start in midfield? Or is that too much too soon?

I think CH will be reluctant to play any of the players that played the full 101 minutes on Wednesday and that includes Mighten.

Not if he's 'phased in' like Mighten was Wassy. I think thats a good shout TBH

Were clearly aligned to how we want to see football to be played. Let's look after that ball much better. Back and Fornahs performances on Wednesday mean they have earned the right to start for me. Would send out agood message to the whole academy that if you get a shirt, play well, you keep it. 

Carvalho goals certainly helped his case too. Not a chance that is the team tomorrow mind. Just listen to Hughtons post match interview.

I'd love to see Fornah play but maybe Bournemouth would be too big a call. Blackburn on Wednesday would suit better I think. Back at full back might just be a good idea though.

No way will CH throw in rookie against Bournemouth. They're a top side. We don't need to go gung ho at this lot. We'll get spanked.

I think Mighten will drop out and he'll play Lolley because he's reliable at tracking back and helping the full back out.

Samba
Gabriel Figs McKenna Tutu
Colback Yates
Zincs Johnson Lolley
Taylor

Tough ask on Tutu. He wont be up to full match fitness and he'll be asked to play a full 90 minutes against a top side as there is literally no alternative.
