Not sure Smallbone would make it that far into the box as a CDM. Although actually he might because he never seems to be in the correct position when Martin plays him there..

As long as it's Charles and not Smallbone

No need to change the team IMO. Second half was a doddle, they shouldn't be tired. The back four MUST stay the same.

And Boufal was better than Mara. Time to get rid.

I think "very good" is pushing it. He was ok but didn't have a great deal to do. He still worries me but think the defense is more balanced when he is playing.

Well that was easy. No complaints from me what so ever. Same team on Saturday please.

So much better with this back four.

I'm more surprised he hasn't taken this opportunity to shoe horn Stephens into goal.

Can't wait for the Preston attackers to press McCarthy. Could be a total shit show tonight.

Indeed. Lumley actually made a few decent saves against Liverpool. Saves that I'm not convinced Bazunu would have made. Don't get me wrong, he isn't a great keeper by any means but he's good with his feet and is better at shot stopping.

Lumley; KWP, THB, Bednarek, Manning; Downes, Smallbone, Aribo; Edozie, AA, Adams. Subs - Bazunu, Stephens, Bree, Charles, Rothwell, Sulemena, Armstrong, Brooks, Fraser. Appreciate that Martins team will be a lot different.

It is the worst in the league.

Personally don't think he's that bad at claiming crosses. His shot stopping is the glaring weakness. Surely Adam should be able to see that.

Personally don't think we will beat Leicester. They struggle against teams that sit deep. We are their perfect opposition.

Yep, a draw is no good for Preston. They'd need to win all 3 of their remaining games to just stand a chance. Could be an exciting game.

Calling Mara physical is a bit of a stretch, let's be honest.

Rinse and repeat 🙄 why does Martin keep bringing Mara on!?

Our best 3 are Downes, Aribo and S.Armstrong. This was shown when they dominated the Ipswich midfield the other week.

Surely SAA or Dibling should be on the bench ahead of this guy? Is it worth pissing them off for Mara? Absolutely not.

Martins subs continue to irritate the hell out of me though. Mara? Wtf was that all about.

Adams had a very, very good game. Clearly should be playing every game. Aribo likewise.

He has his limitations but would he be better than what we have in that position in the Championship? Definitely.

Didn't realise he wanted out. Doesn't look like the Nice move has worked for him either. I'd still have him back next season if he wants to put the effort in.

He was poor against Middlesbrough but thought he was good against Ipswich. There was no need to drop him today.

We all know Adams can't finish. But we also know AA can't do half the things that Adams can in that central position. Why move AA when he scores more goals from the right? It makes absolutely no sense what so ever.
