McGree is arguably our best player. Benched. 

Flashscore has Coulson up top

If Rogers is seen more as a 10 long term, then why not play him there now with Forss as the striker ahead of him?
 

Feel sorry for McGree and Forss with this team selection.

Surely, SURELY Carrick can see what we all see with crooks, right? What is this obsession with playing him as a 10 ffs

I don’t get it Brunners not only does he contribute little to the play he slows the whole forward play right down as he basically gets in the way

I think because of his height he draws defenders away...You cant leave an attacker with his size loose in the box...Giving smaller attackers round him free reign

Well you could do actually as despite his height he is an awful header of a football, never times his jump

Bit baffled by that selection I must say.

I'm hoping by slating Crooks that means that he will have an unreal game but my god I am tired of watching him fumble around the pitch.

👍

What an absolute garbage team , sack the manager, well that should do the trick also, 3-1 Boro 😀

What a come down it is to see Archer and Akpom replaced with Rogers and Crooks.

For me it had to be Forss up top with McGree at #10.

I wonder if it’s going to be 4-3-3 with Crooks in the right-central midfield role, we know how well he links up with Jones on that side from when he used to play there for Wilder. Coventry won the midfield battle in the playoffs so it could be an attempt to swing it in our favour. Jones also did well at their ground in the first leg, so makes sense to start him.

Should be an open game with mistakes made by both sides!

One thing is for sure we will not improve on corners today!

McGree ran about a lot v Millwall without doing anything of note, had a lot of the ball but never showed anything for Millwall to be concerned, I like McGree & for me he's been a very good player for us, but by the same score if McGree struggled to make an impact v Millwall, then so did Crooks, who keeps his game

Hopefully another spoke to soon quote 😄

Agree with everyone else saying Forss 9 McGree 10

Will also be delighted to be proven wrong if Crooks and Rogers step up today

Completely disagree with Crooks starting, do feel sorry for McGree and Forss
