injury to Smith forces one change but not sure Barlaser should be dropped

Could be a knock or some tightness. Agree he doesn't deserve to be dropped.

 

[BoroPhil]

I wouldn't consider it as dropped, Carrick has says he wants to use the squad.

Plus, players always want to bust a gut and up their game when going back to play at an old club of theirs. Show the fans what they are missing. I imagine Howson has been well up for this one in training.

Last minute winner for Howson against his former side

Have we had the same team in consecutive games for any this season? can't be many.

Sunderland to Birmingham? Literally the last 2 games

Birmingham was same team as Sunderland wasn't it?

That's how I see it. Carrick doesn't 'drop' players. I thought Howson would be in tonight anyway.

Big game on Saturday, we need Barlaser for that. Howson will be well up for this tonight you would think.

 

[Cambsred]

Only one game?

Not sure I would have changed it but can understand bringing in fresh legs.

Rogers for Coburn for me

 

[AytonMews]

Keep it the same second half.

There’s only one team winning this.

Rogers for Coburn for me

I wouldn't..
As talented a player as he's looked. The ball just comes back too often.
The gaps look big from up top to the 3 , he's not the fella for that role IMHO

 

[Priv]

Howson started because we need leadership, with no smith or Lenihan we’d have none in the team if Howson was on the bench
