Team for Tuesday?

Big game on Tuesday, knows silverware and a Wembley appearance could make a good season, with Rhodes presumably out he has to look after his strikers, who does he risk and how much does he want it. Thoughts?

I think he may go a much weaker team tomorrow as he has with all bsm games. Keep the Saturday squad for Stevenage would be my guess. But who knows with critchley lol 🤷
 
I also think he will go with the usual BSM team, to keep their cup run and team morale going

Might include Gabriel & Lavery at some stage for match sharpness.
 
I think in most games we have performed really well so it will probably be the usual changes. As much as I'd like Gabriel to play that would prob mean he isn't playing Saturday so I'd prefer him to not be in the team because of that as we need him on Saturday. Even so Pennington, Connolly, Dale, Carey, Virtue, Lyons, Lavery, Joseph. Still the make up of a solid team

Not sure I would risk Joseph in this game. Is Brad Holmes totally out of the picture now?
 
joseph and Lavery up top for me. Otherwise i will go for a two knight solid midfield eight pawns at the back keeping them pesky trotters out. rooks bombing down the flanks firing the ammo onto the queens nut. bishops will for a solid back two. King can get pissed bored betwen the sticks. its the Critchovic old boltonian reverse game from 1895.
 
O'Donnell
Penington Casey Connolly
Gabriel Virtue Norburn Lyons
Carey
Lavery Dale

Expect a strong bench, Joseph, Morgan, and Kouassi should get a run out.

Luckily, competition is tight so in theory, this as a way to get back in the first team. I’m hoping Penno has a good game as we need him in the back 3.

Like the chess analogy - although I was becoming a tad 'board' with it by the end ...
 
I'd like to see what Dale could do in the Dembele position with licence to roam. I think he may surprise a few there.
 
Dale had his best game for us in that free role he had v Burton in the EFL Trophy.
According to the Loan Watch article on the Club website Brad Holmes has now returned to Bloomfield Rd from his loan at Southport.

That's good timing. I would definitely look at Holmes with Lavery up front with Kouassi from the bench.
 
The squad is there to be used and have proven themselves by getting this far in the competition
If playing Joseph and Lavery, given their work rate don't keep them on too long in the second half
 
With arguably our most important league game coming up on Saturday and Rhodes possibly a doubt I wouldn't take any risk with
Joseph , Lavery or Dembele .
 
Squad seems obvious to me

O’donnell
Pennington Casey Connolly
Gabriel virtue TOB Lyons
Dale Lavery Carey

Carey and dale playing as 2 10s playing just behind lavery
