Great news that Thompson is fit - the option to start him and put Craig in the middle (with Easton or Lathrope) and Danny on the left
No Billy today so again numbers are a little short. Wonder if Yeoman starts whether Dan Sully will get a spot on the bench?
EDIT - just read Manse is fit! Likely Yeoman will come in for Billy and Thompson will be utilised from the bench but wonder if Craig's talents are wasted out wide.
Absolutely they are, and we always play better with him centrally, but it's needs must at the minute.
Wimbledon are poor, we should go out there and attack them today. Fancy Rene to dominate.
Really hope you are right, although we haven't fared too well against the bottom-feeders so far (Barnet, Rovers, Wycombe, Plymouth)...
Oddly confident today. We have been so inconsistent his season, I think the only thing we haven't yet served up is a resounding victory. A repeat of last year's 4-0 will do nicely.
Teams are up - Yeoman in for Bodin our only change, with Thompson making the bench. Good to see Mansell made it - it looked bad when he was stretchered off on boxing day so hope the knee wound is healed.
Shame we are persisting with Craig on the wing, but today its hard to argue as we don't really have the (fully fit) personnel to do anything different.
Wimbledon line up as expected, we should have enough about us to get a result here.
You lot still think we'll be doing a 4-4-1-1? It's been well documented that Yeoman is a finisher, and to be honest I haven't seen a lot else from his play that would suggest he is anything other than a finisher.
By that I mean I'm not sure he could play the 'creator' role in behind Howe as he may not have the passing ability or, indeed, the mental ability to know where to be in that creative role.
