Archer a doubt

If I remember correctly I don’t think he posted that when he first got here when he wasn’t starting. Could just be a coincidence of course

We've definitely had players upload similar things when they've just been on the bench, and in some cases not even in the 18, so it could be nothing.
 
If Archer is out I'd move Forss up top and put Jones in his spot. I like Crooks but not up front. Can always switch if not working.
 
I’d personally bring in Barlaser for a 3 man midfield. They are relentless in the press and from what I remember last season they won the midfield battle completely.

Steffen

Smith
Fry
Lenihan
Giles

Howson
Barlaser
Hackney

McGree
Forss
Akpom
 
Carrick said Archer had a swollen ankle and he was taken off as a precaution. He would have had X rays etc done on Monday, my gut feeling is that Archer will be involved. Starting with Barlaser could be a sensible move to bef up the midfield and allow Akpom to get forward more and work with Forss and McGree.

No way do we throw Jones back in today of all games. I think he would be bullied by their left back, who's very good, I fear it would knock his confidence while it's already down.

Think it will be Crooks up top in a straight swap if Archer is out.
 
Crooks coming on for the last 20 minutes would be a great option to hold onto. He’s likely to get a card in this game wherever/whenever he plays. I think Archer starts, Carrick said Fergie has been giving him tips and I’m sure he’d advocate the bluff.

This is also what I would do. I think Akpom loses a lot of effectiveness when paired with someone like Crooks or Muniz plus it would give Sheffield Utd a puzzle to solve.

We’ll get a very tough game if archer is not playing because he’s our fast and powerful out which will stop sheff utd pushing up on us….
If he ain’t playing I worry for us sadly….
Because they are a good side….

Here’s hoping archer can make it 🙏🏻
