Move Sterling up the park and bring in Grimmer. You can also make these two interchangeable during the game...they both have a good cross ball, which is missing from Thomas's game...
Maybe he hasn't been great because he's not playing out wide?I'm really warming to the idea that you and a few others have suggested of bring Grimmer in and pushing Sterling forward.
My initial thoughts were that he'd bring back Doyle and push Bayliss wide put I prefer your idea.
Bayliss hasn't been great recently but maybe the goal will kick start his season. Would be a shame to push him out wide now.
Bloody hope not.
Sensible thing to do is to just push Bayliss right and bring Doyle in.
Or... more sensible to change as little as possible. Allessani in for Thomas? I thought he’s looked good when he has come on. Very direct and quite quick. Perfect replacement for Thomas. (But not as good!)
Preferable not to change a winning team if possible, but will likely need early changes due to fatigue after boxing day. I'd have Westbrooke on the bench as a like-for-like for Bayliss after 70 mins or so. Brown could be a replacement for either Mason or Shipley if either tire.
Thomas out, I'm thinking Grimmer in front of Sterling? Don't really want to mess with the defence if possible and Sterling has started to look comfortable. Allassani on the bench if needed. I think MR will go for Bayliss on the right and either Doyle or Ogogo in the centre unfortunately.

Grimmer right midfield? Why?
Who Doyler no way?hoping Doyler will be back in the side but had heard he had a bust up with the coaching staff, so who knows.
I agree but it has to be said that this was before Sterling found his feetI prefer Sterling at Right Back, he is more solid defensively.
We tried the Sterling thing attacking against Oxford and it didn't really work.
when doesn't Doyler have a bust up with the coaching staff? he would only get dropped if he had a go at MR methinks! I think the lad has been playing with an injury all season and i think the rest will do him good if he recovers from the Knee ligament strain he will be inhoping Doyler will be back in the side but had heard he had a bust up with the coaching staff, so who knows.
One win has turned my dad from “we’re going to be in a relegation battle this season” to “we’re only 9 points off the playoffs”
I went to bed last night drooling over the thought of a championship relegation battleI had the same thoughts at half time.
I reckon we all need to get sectioned.

A waste of Sterling's crossing ability!Allasani infront of Sterling, Sterling told just to defend.
Also had a disallowed goal that clearly crossed the lineThe last game was a bit like the Charlton one from what I remember. We went ahead in the first half, second half they made some changes and were on top. I think their silly sending off helped us and we nicked a winner at the end.
I'd be happy with a repeat if my nerves could take it.
Yeah there was that too!Also had a disallowed goal that clearly crossed the line
