Suspect we’ll see Clarke, Hendrie and Glennon back tomorrow but will Grandin replace Clifton?

This is where Ollie has some tough calls to make. Clarke really looks after the ball well and links with whoever is around him. Clifton hustled and bustled to good effect so just shades it over Whitehouse for me. Grandin has class and needs game time so it is Benson's turn for a rest. Glennon back in but Hewitt deserves a consecutive chance to put in some booming crosses.

                                                      Macca

           Hewitt                    Waterfall       Pollock           Glennon

                         Clifton                 Grandin          Tilley

            Clarke                            Hanson                 Vernam

Whitehouse ahead of Clifton based on size and strength, Cobblers are a big team

Perhaps we should play to our strengths not theirs? I’d quite like to see Bill in the Whitehouse role tomorrow.

No way should Clifton replace Whitehouse, he’s an absolute tank in comparison and Northampton are a big side.

I think the biggest dilemma is who are the 2 wide players...

Vernam - Almost undroppable but may need a rest after playing every game?
Clark - Adds class and creativity, never loses the ball and can pick out passes from anywhere
Tilley - Has started to show his potential, was outstanding on Tuesday, looks after the ball incredibly well, has a bag of tricks to beat a man and decent pace.

Could we see something like...

                     McKeown

Hendrie.   Waterfall.    Pollock.    Glennon
                          
            Benson.        Grandin

Tilley.            Clark.            Vernam

                      Hanson

The three behind Hanson could all inter-change to keep the opposition guessing.

What a great problem to have and testament to how Ollie has changed so much in a short space of time.

Really like the look of that team, always been a fan of the 4-2-3-1. Think it could work if Vernam and Tilley supported Hanson closely, Clarke plays in the number 10, and Benson and Grandin sit a little bit deeper, but not too deep as to provide no support for the lads higher up the pitch.

It lacks bite in midfield for me, Whitehouse or Clifton for grandin maybe

In Ollie I trust, with a little help from Limbrick and Davies  


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

I like the look of this. Probably harsh on Whitehouse but I do think after Tuesday Tilley deserves to keep his place. Possibly swap him and Clarke as he seemed more effective when he came roam about. But all 3 of Tilley, Clarke and Vernam can swap and change as Ollie tends to like.
