I think it would be very harsh to change a defence that kept a clean sheet vs Wolves. I think the only change will be Baldock in for Rosenior

Baldock in for Lualua, who by all accounts has been poor in the last 2 games he's played, and is a red card in waiting.

I don't, when it would be changed to a defence that got us to the top of the league. Uwe deserves his place.
Also the defence which conceded a goal vs Rotherham up against one that didn't against Wolves. What a great position to be in that we are debating the merits of Uwe or Dunk!

Or you could say the defence that helped us get a win vs the defence that helped us get a draw against 10 men? :wink:

I'd say the main job of the defence is to stop conceding goals! It's up to the forwards to do the scoring, hence my only change would be up front.

I'm not sure it's as simple as that. Defensive players can effect our attacking play. For instance, Bong may have found times where he could not get forward as he normally would when playing with Uwe. Same applies for Kayal/Stephens. They may have found themselves dropping a little deeper if they felt they needed to but maybe have not under Uwe.

We work as a team. One of the main reasons why we are top of the league. Only bad form should see one of the players that has seen this team go top of the league lose his place.

IMO, of course.

A winger playing as a striker, and a striker playing as a winger.

Interesting tactic to surprise Bolton.

I don't think Kaz looks like getting a red card, he looks like getting yellows, and if he gets one then he could be taken off. He hasn't been so good in the last couple of games, but the opposition have been doubling up on him, and everyone struggled to break down Wolves. Bolton are struggling and we need to go for the win, so Kaz would be the more attacking choice over Rosenior.

I don't know how strong Bolton are down their right, so if Liam starts then perhaps it's a reflection on that.

LuaLua and Murphy on the wings, I'd probably revert to Greer and Uwe at centre back but it's a tough one. Other that that, same as ever.

Baldock can cross better than Lualua and Lualua can shoot better than Baldock. Obvious to me!

Good team and what I would choose. Winable game so lets try Murphy and Lua in it. Harsh to drop either still and we need to get back to 2 up front IMO.

No idea why you have Holla on the bench. Bloke is no where near up to the standards we've set this year.

Rest is decent
