| Wat's the chances of a high scoring draw - match fred on 13:47 - Aug 16 by GaryBannister86 | Interesting team, Kone on the bench. If Morgan is at right back, I am worried about our midfield getting totally swamped? Smyth surprisingly back. |
The question is, who is at LB? Mbengue? |  | |  |
| Wat's the chances of a high scoring draw - match fred on 13:54 - Aug 16 with 4352 views | derbyhoop | Mbengue, Cook and Morrison all starting. No obvious LB. Anybody like to guess the formation. Kone, Varane Celar, Vale and Kolli on the bench. |  |

I really like Bennie. Lots of pace and a very good touch. He's 19! |  |

Is he playing a3-5-2 with Smyth and Morgan as wing backs? Leaving Chair in the middle of the 3 with Dembele forward? Otherwise perhaps Dembele is RWB but I’ve made as many tackles in professional football as he has…..bit baffling. Or perhaps it’s 5-4-1 with the same back 5, Field and Madson in front with Chair and Dembele wide of Burrell? [Post edited 16 Aug 2025 14:02]

He has got an eye for goal - his follow up on Burrell’s header was good on Tuesday, as was his lobbed finish. He’s got legs and is reasonably physical too. Puts the effort in and keeps running. Not sure he’s a starter but one for the future if we can work out where he should play. Meantime, he’s a solid bench pick. |  |

Replace Nourry with Stephan and I’d agree. Think he’s just following instructions. |  | |  |

Sincerely hope not. He played a fair chunk of last week's game in the left centre-back role and I can't recall him using his left foot once. Preston hardly pressed us so he had more time, can't see Watford affording us the same time today. |  | |  |
| Wat's the chances of a high scoring draw - match fred on 14:26 - Aug 16 with 3364 views | bosh67 | It does seem pretty odd not having an actual left footed LB when you potentially have 2 that can play there? We shall see. They have very good wingers. |  |

| Wat's the chances of a high scoring draw - match fred on 14:43 - Aug 16 with 2980 views | derbyhoop | Judging by the warming up, it will be a back 4 from R to L, Morgan, Morrison, Cook Mbengue |  |
