I'd be going with this

                                                       McKeown
Efete                          Towler                                 Waterfall                     Crookes
                                    
                                          Clifton                      Fox

JMD                                                 McAtee (Bell if McAtee isn't fit)         Sousa
                              
                                                              Taylor                


Clifton's energy around the middle should help Fox to pick out the passed to unlock them. Hunt could also slot in for Fox and do the same thing, thoughts?

Think Sousa needs a rest and time to work on his final ball & finishing but along with Bopaga makes for a substitute who can add variety and pace. Have to say that I’m a little surprised all other teams include Clifton but maybe it’s me that is wrong on this one but whilst I admire his work rate and commitment I just feel his first touch and passing are not at the required standard and certainly hinder our play down the left hand side of the field. Another who would make a great substitute, particularly given his versatility, but if he plays must be in the centre although in my opinion he’s behind Fox and Hunt.

Still think we need a younger version of Coke plus a left sided midfield player and striker to give us a real chance of winning this league but this group of players have already shown when on form they are a match for anyone but the reliance on McAtee to knit the team together has so far proven a real problem in getting the required consistency.

I don't think you can justify his inclusion in the XI if it's at the expense of either Taylor or McAtee (assuming he's fit). Bell also hasn't got a full 90 in the tank, that was evident after an hour at Solihull when he started cramping up.

For me, if Scannell stays fit, he can potentially be one of our better players.
He has a big month coming up IMO

No not at all at the expense of one of those two, I’d start him out wide. His touch and pace were class at Solihull.

I think Sousa will be sidelined for JMD.

PH has commented about a lack of end product and that's Sousa to a tee.

I also think the step up is affecting him and a few of the other younger, less experienced players. Suddenly, it's cold and dark and the goals aren't flying in any more.

It's a tough old league and they need to adapt and learn quickly.

Wondering what the thought is behind the new signing:

Fed up of Sousa being great up until the bit that matters - crossing/shooting?

Or

To play on the left so Clifton can play in the centre where it seems we are short of quality?

Or

Maybe he’s just cover across the 3 behind Taylor so we don’t end up in the position again of having to push Fox up there to cover if McAtee is out?

If Maguire-Drew is more competition for the right it seems like a strange choice but maybe Hurst thought it was too good an opportunity to turn down.

Obviously some are injured* but these are the wingers currently on the books.

Sousa
Wright*
Scannell*
Grant*- may be more central
Clifton - not favoured position but steady on the left
Bapaga
JMD
