I guess Hammond is the obvious choice if fit but given the way he's settled now would Spanish Dave not be worth a shout? He could also add an extra dimension with the odd killer ball which Liam, for all his qualities, rather lacks.

Calderon has played in the holding midfielder position in the development squad, and Spanish Dave is looking one of our best attacking players at the moment so I'd rather see him further up the pitch.

If Hammo isn't 100% , there is always Dicker or Calde to step in. Spanish Dave is an option if Buckley is playing as a winger.

Is Crofty fit or just out of favour? I know he's not really shone since coming back, but could be worth a go.

Lopez needs to be further up the pitch. Set up both goals on Tuesday.

Dicker for me.

Calde was awful in this role against Swindon. Dicker would be my preference, can tackle and is probably the most incisive passer bar Vicente. He will need to be quicker on the ball though.

Calderon's defensive ability isn't good enough for the role. Great attacking midfielder though.

This is the first time I have genuinely felt that a draw would be est in the brighton vs town game. I don't want to see hudds go down and they need to start getting points. If we get 3 from burley, I would be happy with a draw , however, we need the points too

I also thought Spanish Dave, but the guy is on fire at the moment, probably needs to play further forward, but sure he could do a job.

Dicker for me, his nice accurate passing will be like having a Quarterback in front of the back four.

Dicker, is too slow on the ball for me, if he was quicker on the ball he would start more games. often gets caught out when teams are closing us down, however i reckon Burnley will come to defend so he may be ok.

I have a feeling Hammond wont make it and an equally sneaky feeling that Calde will play a part - whether it as defensive mid or replacing Bruno to take on that role (he played there from time to time before coming to us I think?)

Any chance Jake FC will be involved, I wonder?

Initially I thought of Spanish Dave, but he's our most effective winger, so Dicker if Hammond is injured.

I wouldn't be suprised if El Abd fits in there with Greer and Upson as CBs. Obviously not his best position but would certainly put some steel into that position and good with his short uncomplicated passing as long as our midfielders are near to him. Would rather see him CB though!
