----Cavaleiro---Afobe----Jota-------

Subs: Norris, Batth, Graham, Saiss, Gibbs-White, Costa, Bonatini

If this is Afobe's extended trial as it were then give him the minutes to prove himself either way. This may be one of the games where he's of more use; Sheff Utd press high, they play three fairly lumpen centre halves (don't think Stears is catching him in a race) and they have to approach this game positively, aiming for a 0-0 is no good to them.

We don't need two dedicated centre halves on the bench if Saiss is there, we're never going to use both. Stick Graham on there to cover the wingbacks as Vinagre is going to have to miss out. Also no place for Miranda, Bright or Mir.

[Kenny]

Think he will put Bright ahead of Graham on the bench

The world is not ready for Super Bright the wingback.

I can't get Hause on the bench either.

 

[Kenny]

Doc gets crocked he will move Bennett to RWB.

Anyone else waiting for their tickets?

Did you order them to be sent out or print at home?

 

[big mean bunny]

Huge game this for me, my old footy sides WhatsApp exploded when they beat us at Bramall lane. Was guys posting in the group that I didn't even know were in it. Failing to beat Sheff Utd would taint the incredible season for me as I'd never be allowed to forget it.

 

[AndyWolves]

Did you order them to be sent out or print at home?

Print at home, I've been emailing them all week and they came today.

Gonna catch-up with a mate I've not seen for a while and hopefully get some pre game beers in as long as work feck off and don't want me in on Saturday

 

[Trips]

Turn your phone off!

Late kick off as well so plenty of time for beers

Subs: Norris, Batth, Graham, Saiss, Gibbs-White, Costa, Bonatini

I'd go with Costa & Bonatini to start and then bring on Cav & Afobe after 55-60 minutes when they start to tire a little

---Costa---Jota----Cav

subs: Norris, Miranda, Vinagre, N'Diaye, MGW, Bright, Afobe

 

[Langers]

The defence picks itself but I'd be happy with N'Diaye alongside Neves, Costa or Cav on the right, Leo, Rafa or Afobe up front.

So many options, I'm looking forward to this, albeit from the comfort of my sofa.

 

[Penk Wolf]

I’d start with the same team that started at Ipswich.

I’m not confident about this game for some strange reason.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Sheff Utd have been bobbins since Coutts got injured, 10 points from 12 games I think.

 

[LG Wolf]

We’re in a situation where we can realistically bring off the bench Afobe, Cavaleiro and Saiss.

Madness.

 

[Tredman]

Tbf Lambert regularly had Cav and Saiss on the bench...

 

[Penk Wolf]

Sheff Utd have been bobbins since Coutts got injured, 10 points from 12 games I think.

I know, it’s just a feeling I have.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I wouldn't worry about that. Seems Wolves fans have been having that "feeling" about every game for about three months.

Dino's team doesn't work. 6 loanees in the 18.

Five innit? He hasn't got Leo in there

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Ah my bad - I just didn't even look for Leo as I assumed he would be! I checked all the other names off and thought right that's it. Oops. Sorry Dino!
