Very much hoping we get a continuation of Trybull who subbed for Evans and was dramatically better.

Not sure you can say dramatically as he played a couple of simple balls.  Althiugh its not a high bar to reach being better than Evans

Fantastic football that. Elliott, Arma, BB and Holtby must be frightening to play against. Douglas and Trybull are massive improvements...wait until Dack, Trav and Rothwell are back!! ?

Whisper it, but Williams should start every game he's fit at CB. A colossus back there.

From who's available Phillip, what do you think our best set up is in midfield? 

I guess my preference now would be Johnson and Trybull as a CM pairing in a 4231 formation, with Dolan Elliott and Brereton as the 3 and Arma up top.

Buckley was poor against Forest, however Johnson has been no better in the last few games. He also played alongside Evans and Johnson, I’d expect more for him with Holtby in the centre too. Assuming Ayala is injured...

Anything that doesn't involve Evans.

Assuming all are available, I'd line up:

                     Kaminski

JRC   Lenihan   Williams   Douglas

       Johnson   Evans   Trybull

Elliott/Dolan  Armstrong   Brereton   

Coventry are there to be beaten, we need to be on the front foot and nothing but a victory should suffice.

COYB!!

Edit: As Rothwell is unavailable, I can't see us starting with anything other than above in the middle of the park.

No Holtby? Or is he not available and I’ve missed it? He’s been our best player this season.

I'd agree. I thought I'd read he was unavailable but could be wrong. Paternity leave?

Anybody else resent paying £10 for this game after forking out £400 for a ST?

Well you presumably knew that Saturday away games were extra when you bought your ST didn’t you? You are getting an extra 7 midweek away games over what would normally be available.

He was on paternity leave, he returned and played against Watford.

So Available today

I've been very impressed with our play this season (apart from the Covid affected Forest game).

I'd give Chapman a start as Rothy isn't available, Dolan to play as 'super sub'.

Lenihan hasn't impressed me of late so Williams to get the left CH spot.

3-0 to us!!

Course I knew that. Doesn’t mean it can’t bother me does it?

Still not seen any evidence that Buckley can start and play well. If you are playing the other two, I think you need a runner with the ball who can link defence into attack like Rothwell was doing. It is why Chapman was brought on against Forest to play and I know that didn't work but the idea was right in principle.

Buckley was fucking awful last time out. Right now I would only start him as a last resort.

As was Johnson. We're far superior on paper to Coventry and should go with the more attacking of the two out of form options IMO.

Bit harsh....

He hasn't impressed me since Preston away when he bagged 2 early goals. Not too sure what he offers? doesn't use his height well enough for me.

Sadly can’t watch this one because I’m at work. Echoing a lot of other people’s thoughts but a win in anyway, style, shape is a must today. Fancy a win and three points today . COYB

Plenty of players were poor against Forest. Buckley was as well, although he still played the pass of the game - it wasn’t his fault that Nyambe wasn’t alive to it. I suspect that he might play well with Elliott though.

Buckley was no worse than most of the rest v Forest. He’s a talented player and will come good but I wouldn’t use him as a replacement for Johnson who has more physical presence.

I'd go with the September Chapionship player of the month in front of a player yet to do anything of note and is no more than league 2
