    I'd go with Madden alongside Bennett although I would suspect he will go with Walker, Madden and Reid as a front 3 with Rooney at the front of a Midfield 3 behind them. I'd make sure that Stretton gets on after the hour mark.

    A lot depends on who plays behind them. If Rooney is out again, whether we go with 2 DMs, whether we have picked up any more injuries or whether any of our longer term injured are ready to return.

    I'm not sure how we're going to accommodate MSH and MSK once they are fully fit. Go 3-5-2 with zonal marking at the back, play them in front of Minihan and Jennings, or play them in place as part of a back 4 with a DM covering for them when they go forward?

    Watching last night I couldn't see how they will fit in with the slow methodical system we now use. I don't know it could speed up when our players get up to speed but it's a system where everyone has to be completely comfortable in possession plus there has to be an end result. There are no prizes for completing 30 passes before losing possession.
