The team given above, I suspect I would prefer Kamara to Docherty.

That would require Aribo to move into the more attacking position. That’s an option but probably too defensive, I think it’s very unlikely Ojo will be dropped. This will be our first game of the season playing s team

who won’t just park the bus though so Ojo might do better with the additional space.

Keep it tight at the back and try and sneak an away goal.  Tried and tested.

[MacK1950 2,378]

Not a bad selection but with me Flanagan is a risk.

[DMAA 3,658]

He obviously still doesn’t trust Barisic defensively. Jones in for Ojo is a surprising one though and so is Morelos over Defoe. Not our strongest team imo. 

[der Berliner 3,749]

So that will be ..

 

McGregor

 

Tavernier - Goldson - Katic - Flanagan

 

Jack - Kamara

 

Arfield - Aribo - Jones 

 

Morelos

 

 

I think that looks good. Would have played Davis too, but in these last few games, Jack has also developed some good forward movement.

Ojo is a right winger, Jones a left winger ... ?

Haha. Aribo will be left of centre midfield and Jones in front of him. Jones does prefer to pull wide so it may be a lobsided 4-3-2-1 as @Gaffer has talked about in the past
