Mason Clark for Sakamoto (if he doesn't make it). Otherwise same starting X1. I would imagine Weds will sit in and frustrate us.

Same again please. Big club Wednesday, and would like to see them back in the big time, but they are nowhere near that yet.
Another clean sheet would be nice, and a few goals. Expecting a win now.....how things change eh?

They play tonight away at Bristol City at 8pm so a pretty late finish and a long journey home if they go straight back so we will have had a much longer break than them and I hope Bristol City run them ragged.
That just never seems to benefit us - I seem to recall being really optimistic abut a number of games where we had extra rest...and it back fired completely

Interesting decision for Robins. He tried same again v Swansea after Spurs and said he and they (the players) couldn’t do it again. But I think he has to go same again.

Extra day's rest will make a difference. Plus we're going into the game on the back of a morale boosting win rather than a gut wrenching late defeat against a PL side that we dominated for 85 mins.

I think I'd out Simms in for Tats and move BTA to the right. EMC was ok last night but I think Simms needs time and will start to click soon. Get BTA running at the defence again. They will be defensive so we need to stretch them

Would definitely play Simms if possible, we'll need his goals this season, and he need to build confidence.

We saw how effective bta is in his natural position last night constantly running at the defence and quit rightly many had him as mom so why would you put him back out wide where he hasn't been effective just to accommodate another player who is off form.
stick with the same team and build confidence with another win. Stop all this chopping and changing trying to accommodate everyone

Lets keep the expectation levels down again . As I said before Blackburn, 3 more points would be ideal but I want to see that level of energy and aggression and togetherness that we seemed to have lost.
Same team please if all fit apart from Saka, although not convinced by him , put EMC in there.

100%. Also it’s not even accommodating, Simms isn’t a pressing forward. We need a high press to play high in the same role just exposes him. If we play him, we need it to be with a purpose. Hopefully he uses this time to start reflecting on what he needs to do and how to get there.

If Tatsu is out then Robins has a few options open to him. But i wouldn't be making wholesale changes, just because he can. He can start the side that finished the 1st half last night and tell them to give all for as long as they can.

Even without Tatsu, Rodriguez and Allen the bench has depth. Tavares or Aiden Dausch will be brought into the squad to cover that wide position.
