Giles on the bench to offer something different, if needed. We learned that Baka can contribute-which is good. Allen, O'Hare to run them ragged. please! 3 points to set us up for the run in.

Start Bakayoko and Biamou, we looked way more dangerous last night.

One of those starnge ones again where the least likely could happen. But I think we are too good and set in the groove now for that to happen so win and hopefully a few goals.

I think McCallum starts Giles on bench mason wasn’t great last night he’s too small for me and their second just let that cross come in unchallenged

3-1 win

can’t make my mind up do we stick with Baka & Max or do we use 1 of them and keep that midfield player.

100% Allen,Kelly,Walsh & O’Hare need to be playing together so maybe max ahead of that 4 in midfield.

Marosi
Dabo hyam mcfadz rose McCallum
Walsh Kelly
Allen O’Hare
Biamou

I’d be happy with a 1-0 win.

Bolton haven't been too bad; they're certainly not the worst team in the league. The problem will be to break them down and actually score a goal I suspect. I hope Robins realises this and has a plan.

I think as we are playing Bolton at home and second game where two up top has worked well would go 2 up top for first half.

Marosi
Dabo
McCallum
MacFadzean
Rose
Hyam
Allen
Walsh
Kelly
Biamou
Baka

Subs: Wilson, Pask, Giles, Shipley, Westbrooke, Jones, Godden.

All fit same team that started v Bristol Rovers. It will be interesting where Ryan Giles who I’m certain will play some part fits in.

Shit on bench for sure sorry Jones out - O'Hare on bench.

However if Robins wants one up top O'Hare into midfield and think Baka would just shade it for me on top on own over Biamou or Godden.

Was only joking I gathered you had forgot him, having said that shows how strong our squad is.

This game has got a 90% possession, 20 shots on target 0-0 banana skin all over it after our good recent results...

I'd start with the same formation as we did last night.

Rose was injured so can see Pask playing again if he's not fit in time.

Mason out for McCallum / Giles.

Same team as last night, thought Baka looked class maybe its his new trim?

Time to get a few goals for the goal difference- long shot 5-0 city

Erm he seemed OK. His pace came in handy a couple of times but while he didn't stand out as amazing he didn't look out of place.

Didn’t know Rose was injured hope not too bad we’d miss him he is one of those who quietly and effectively gets on with his job, a mr.reliable.

Stick with 2 up top i think, Bolton will be coming for a 0-0 i imagine and have every man behind the ball. Godden on his own would just get outnumbered and frustrated.

Should be comfortable but probably wont be - 1-0 win (which is fine by me!)

Would’ve been great if Pask finished his first half run with a goal

First half: Looked a little lost defensively. Not always in a good starting position. Left Dabo marking 2 on at least 3 occasions. One super run forward that had brum players panicking and turning.

Rest of game: much better defensively. Strong and competitive.

Oggy said Rose is fine, just resting a small niggle.

Thinking about this. We have Pompey coming up three days later. Probably game of the season, lose it and the title is no longer in our hands. Should we rest some people who played 120 mins last night?

A comprehensive win to get the old GD up would be great!

Liam Kelly was clearly flagging for most of the second half. As probably our most important player I think it would’ve been worth resting him last night. Has he missed a game this season?
