Coventry 2-0 down to Preston, good for us, for those dreamers that still believe there's a chance.

3-0 down, so it's a great opportunity to narrow with the chasing pack tomorrow.

Would still need win an unlikely number of games in a row to make up the ground, but it's the sort of the result from elsewhere that we'd need to make it happen.

Surely Dieng has to be back in! Ideal game

I like Glover, hes done well since coming, made the occassional error resulting in us conceding & at that time Carrick could have used that as a reason to bring back Dieng, who is our No1 keeper, but as mentioned Carrick is happy with Glover & thats all that matters

Zero reason not to put Dieng straight back in that team. Glover looks like hes had 3 scoops of pre workout before every game 

You play your best keeper, dieng is our best keeper. Its a big error in carricks judgement if he sticks with glover imo. 

Agree Dieng was brought in as our No1 keeper though, I cant disagree with Carricks decision to stick with Glover, im happy to see him keep his place

It shows any player coming in under Carrick & performs well will be rewarded, good management

Ayling   VDB  Clarke/Fry   Thomas

          Barlaser    O'Brien

       Forss    Azaz        McGree

Think this will be the team though he might stick with Engel and I’m hoping Dieng goes back in.

Yeah, you know this might be the type of game where Engel can make things happen in an attacking sense. But for me, in brief viewing Thomas seems to be the more positionally aware defender, which would be useful against these who are a good attacking side

I wouldn’t mind seeing Thomas get a game, I kind of think we’re looking at him as a potential signing anyway.

I can see Greenwood coming off the bench second half & if we're comfortable, are we ever😉, a young debutant 👌

C'mon Boro!

Hope you are right. It is always a good feeling seeing one of ours making his debut.

Strange feeling not having to worry about fielding a strong starting 11 and a decent subs bench.

Going to be a good game to watch with a number of goals.

Very important we don't throw the Leicester result away so 3 points for me please.

Do join me later on tasting a decent red wine, cheese and niblets optional!

Expecting an open game with lots of goals, given neither side can defend  (and Glover will be in goal)

I've revised my prediction, 5-3 to Boro.
