We have to win football matches now

For me

Maxwell
Lyons
Thorniley
Nelson
Husband

Connolly/Dougall
Carey
Poveda

Bowler
Rogers
Yates

Some might see it as risky to play one holding but we have to win matches quick sharp, the best way to do that in my mind is to get our best players on the pitch and attack with pace.

Take the shackles off and score more than the opposition, being careful and trying to shore us up defensively hasn't worked, it's time for MM to admit that with the players we've got Attack is the best form of defence.

Bench GK, Carey, Thompson, Husband, Apter, CJ, Fiorini/Bridcutt (if fit for 45 minutes) otherwise any development squad player who could step in if necessary.

Just for a pure change I may put Grimshaw in nets, rest Husband as we don't want his hamstring to go again.

I might just give Thompson a go ahead of Lyons and I know he's a loose canon but he's got a lot of energy.

It could make sense if only to try something different. I doubt Gabriel would be able to do 90 minutes, without the risks involved with too much too quick. But I like Lyon’s.

Lyon’s is good going forward , but he should have closed down their winger for their first goal, instead he left it to Connolly.
 
Thankfully you lot aren't picking the team
You're right we aren't picking it, you say thankfully we aren't picking it, but given in 4 games so far MM hasn't got team selection right enough to get a win, It seems like a fair discussion point doesn't it really?

But, instead of making an arsey comment to people discussing football on a football message board (I mean, who'd have thought it?) you could tell us Who you'd pick?
