Murphy just behind Murray? Or Skalak in there as I believe that is where he has played before?
Just not confident today although I hope I am wrong. I think that Huddersfield shook a lot of us and we really need to avoid defeat today or it will be a full on blip

Three wingers...interesting!
I don't understand this selection at all...why play a winger up front when you have two strikers on the bench? Muddled thinking to my mind.
I'd understand playing an extra midfielder and going 451 to compensate for Stephens, but this team just looks a mess. Square pegs, square holes.
Hopefully this is part of some sort of master plan we aren't aware of.

Skalak to run the show 
You'd think it would be better for the club to say someone is out then they unexpectedly play rather than the other way round which is what we seem to do.

Won at Hillsborough with that midfield.

It feels like we left behind the January window significantly weaker then we went it to it, how that works I dont know.

Just watched Huddersfield on a stream (not got Sky Sports 2) and they looked better than we have played this season. Leeds put a slightly better fist than we did, but not by much.
Albion (4-4-1-1): Stockdale,
Bruno, Duffy, Huenemeier, Pocognoli;
Knockaert, Sidwell, Norwood, Skalak; Murphy;
Murray. #bhafc
Albion subs: Walton, Kayal, Hemed, March, Tomori, Akpom, Towell. #bhafc

For us yes. The idea is probably to have the opposition planning based on the info they get about the team they will face

Yeah definitely. Kaz had been absolutely integral to our first half of the season, what with all his goals and assists.

Without Stephens I'm glad he's playing an extra midfielder.

I like it. Murray knock downs for Murphy to shoot or bring in the midfield. This could be good, as Brentford lacking something at home at the moment
