It's not bed wetting to want the manager to start his better players .. it's a forum to discuss the team .. that's what we're doing

There will be circumstances to the selection today, mostly nothing to worry about.

I swear fans want 30 signing every window thinking that’s a magic pill. Doesn’t always work out.

Me personally , worry that robins is gearing towards starting Latibeaudiere as first choice , it's a genuine concern in my head as it would be a weakness that teams will exploit

He is one of best in the air and for a centre back isn't very tall. This would suggest he has a good spring. He was our stand out player beginning of last season, albeit in a back 3. He is decent on the ball.
We don't play a back 3

He’s horrendous on the ball

You may be right, you may be wrong. Trust the management team. They’ve got most things right in the last 5-7 seasons. Personally I don’t. I think the back 4 will be Bidwell, Binks, Thomas and MVE.

Again, where did I say that he’s a better player than Thomas? I think Thomas should start. All I’m saying is Lati ain’t as bad as some of you are making out

I didn't say you said Thomas isn't better. I am however disagreeing with you that Latibeaudiere isn't that bad. He's an obvious weak link for me.

My worry is he starts him in the name of experience because it's a young team

Besides 1 or 2 tongue in cheek remarks , starting Latibeaudiere would be a massive failure in recruitment and a big weakness in our starting 11 with better players on the bench .

Unless you think otherwise ?
I do , I think the sensationalist opinions to a player who finished the season poorly ( apparently playing through injury ) are way over the top.
I would play Thomas over Lati but Lati is no way near as bad as some on here are suggesting

Do you think you could mention again that you don't rate Latibeaudiere because I am really not sure yet about your view of him?

The point of friendlies is to get players fit. You don't just play your strongest team, especially at this stage.

To him right now , this is the strongest team barring 2

We’ll see, I’ll pay a lot more attention to the starting teams we field against Everton and Werder Bremen. The starting 11 against MK Dons and Exeter last season was more or less the starters against Leicester.

Last season, Thomas was favoured over Lati at CB so I’m struggling to think what would’ve changed.

Every player has to have their boo boy, apart from Bidwell. Really tedious stuff.
