Mcgree is a no brainer if fit. Hamilton can count himself slightly unlucky though, I think he has been getting better every game and was arguably our best attacking player against Bristol.

Azaz has got to be running out of chances you'd think.

We’ve got so many players, some are going to miss out. Forss and Gilbert will struggle to make the bench. 

Forss will struggle to make the bench surely your having a laugh? He’s the best finisher at the club

Such BS for Gilbert btw - guy plays phenomenal basically every time he touches the field, somehow can't get a look in even when the rest of the team stinks

Howson back. Forss out of the squad again...

Hopefully not through injury!

Maybe he's now too fit to be in the squad?

Whether you like it or not, almost everything we do runs through Azaz. There's a reason he's right at the top in almost every creative statistic available.

Stats don't tell the whole story Brunners, he hasn't been at it this season, he's losing the ball regularly, has had an obscene amount of shots with no goals, his assists have been 2 corners. I actually like him as a player, but he is miles off it, or has been recently.

The issue with Hamilton, at the present time at least, is that he doesn't actually do anything.  Statistically he looks more like a defender than an attacker - few key passes, few shots, few dribbles, there is nothing there at all so far.  He's nice and tidy with the ball but that's about it.  That probably makes him an easy player to drop from the manager's perspective.  

Amazed Clarke isn't back in.

And there's also a reason why we are one of the worst in the league for converting every offensive statistic.

Azaz is a luxury player who divides opinion unfortunately 

I like him but I expect alot more from a luxury player like goals...His set pieces are shockingly poor (watch him score one tonight lol). For me, he's not in the starting 11 when we have everybody available. 

I'd much rather have McGree in the 10 position with Conway wide left with latte up front

Agree with those changes. Bit harsh on Hamilton as I don't think he's been bad but although it might be a simplistic way of looking at things we won two games back to back with McGree and have lost two games back to back without him.

Echo @TeaCider24's thoughts in that I'd have brought Clarke back into the team if he was fit.

Agree 💯

Isn't he supposed to be injured. I hope that's the case because it's mental if he's not even making the bench after last game.

They should wear the home kit but with Error badges stuck over the Errea logo in a similar font, and then see if anyone notices.

Error by Errea sounds like a new line they are launching.

If Forss and Gilbert are fit and not making the squad then there is something seriously wrong with our selection process, Gilbert makes our forward line tick and Forss is the best finisher at the club, I am baffled

As am I and with regards Forss unless injured why is he not included, Seems like Boro rushing players back when not ready

Yea I get that. He's a guy at the very start of his career though and I was quite impressed by him against Bristol. Seemed to be gaining the confidence to have a go at people and try to make things happen. Having said that we've got to get Mcgree back in.
