Would you start with the the same eleven that took the field at Peterborough or switch to the finishing eleven?
Or should Riley McGree be thrown in from kick off?

Wilder's a creature of habit, will be the same 11 starting if all are fit. You have to put a very abject performance to get yourself out of the side once your in it. Personally I would play Sporar ahead of Conolly. Conolly has improved the last few games, but I just don't see him scoring goals, chances I think will be at a premium tonight and I'd much rather have Sporar on the end of one.

Oh yes, Sporar, the goal scoring machine! Not worth a game presently.

I’m not so sure about that I do think he likes a settled side but I think if he had more options he move things around more to suit the opposition.
So I’d say it’s more by circumstance than by design.

Didn't say he was goal scoring machine, just I would rather him on the end of a chance than Conolly, much more likely to convert it imho

Depends if Sporar has been impressive in training

Disagree. Take his penalties away and his goal contribution is very poor

Who would he replace?

I’d shake up the front line but stick with rest

It's a difficult one, but maybe plan to play Howson at full intensity for 60 mins rather than pacing himself for full 90 and then bring on McGree as a fresh replacement.

don't change a winning team unless you have injury or the medical team tell you a player is likely to be injured if you play him

Only change I'd be tempted to make would be Bamba for Fry, as I feel he may handle Mitrovic better, but I'll still have no complaints if Fry does start.
Got to stick with Balogun and Connolly up front as they finally seem to be coming good now that they're fully up to speed.

Fry handled Ronaldo, Kane, and Lukaku pretty well.
Mitrovic would be too quick for Bamba.

I thought Lukaku bullied him to be fair. Bamba dealt with him much more effectively 2nd half.
Fry does seem to struggle against physical strikers but if he does start tonight hopefully he'll be able to deal with Mitrovic.

The game was over 2nd half though. Mitrovic isn't that big, he's a very good finisher with good movement in the box

I didn't think Lukaku bullied Fry. He backed into Fry alot to try to hold the ball up but I don't remember him turning him too often or doing anything more than playing the ball backwards to the midfield.
I thought Fry was quite disciplined to just hold him up, rather than trying to come through the back of him and give away lots of daft free kicks when he couldn't get the ball. Also, he was carrying an injury for much of the half, so I thought he did ok considering. Earlier on in his career I think it would be fair to say he sometimes wasn't strong enough but I wouldn't say that now about him. (I've bloody said it now haven't I, tickling fate on the chin!).
