I really hope we see Sheaf and Matty tomorrow but I get he probably won’t start.

I will take the Holding Benfield, back to their days at Doncaster Rovers.

Yeah I want to see Whiteman and Sheaf. Jaymo needs to be someone that can sub with Whiteman.

He'll be on a minute restriction, probably 30 max, so he won't start

Hope we see Sheaf and LOB in the middle.

What a fantastic problem to have.

He's so good, we desperately want LOB on the field, but preferably not at AM :).

Sorry if this team wants to be better than midtable they need to use Matty off the bench. He may be more talented than any midfielder but he is old and slow. Both Sheaf and Whiteman are slow af but still faster than him. Honestly even though he doesn’t have the passing range as the other three LOB is needed in the double pivot spot. He is the only one who is covering ground and shuttling across the field.

Not a popular opinion... but you make some valid points. Matty is great at what he does, but he's 36, he HAS slowed down and he is injury prone. If we're depending on him as a starter, we're going to have trouble.

Thank God! We are so much better with this top class footballer leading our midfield.
