Saw him play couple weeks back for Barnsley against Stevenage and to be honest he was pretty dire.
Spent more time trying to wind up the Stevenage fans than he did trying to play football. Certainly glad we didn’t sign him on that showing.

Perhaps we should have tried getting Coburn on loan from Boro.....
On Saturday they are going to get physically tested. Even if you had a midfield 3 of Randell, Houghton & Devine it puts alot of pressure on Randell because he is the most likely one to get stuck in.
Its got the making of a real scrap fest. But the one hope l cling onto is whether Millwall will be as driven in terms of their mentality. Knowing that they are safe will they just slightly take their foot off the pedal.
I just think we are trying to solve midfield issues much too late. Gyabi l think was the biggest injury blow. He could get around the park.
If it were me, ld play Devine, Edwards & Randell in midfield. I stick some pace on the wing in Sousa or Mumba at LWB & play Sorinola at RWB.
Edwards has a great knack of running into the box late. It just may get us a goal.

Freeing him up from as RWB defensive responsibilities might help.
He is just someone l thought of who might score a goal other than Hardie or Whittaker.
Sorinola hasn't made last two match day squads.
He has the energy, but, IMO, at times does tend to over commit in the forward areas leaving gaps at the back.
Given our sparsity of options, your suggestion may be the one we need to plump for. Devine is probably too lightweight to play in midfield from the start in such a key game.

Same team, same tactics go for conceding 0🤦. Worked against Leicester with a lot of luck.
Still only need a point but boy can't see where a goal is coming from now.
I would release him from his contract in the summer either way. Couldnt afford his wages in league 1 and can't string games together because of injury in the championship.
With this news something had to change. Even if Rands is moved up the pitch and Pleggy or the skipper play in front of the defence

Think i would push Mumba into central position, he will give pace and energy. 4-3-3 for me
1, Cooper
2, Edwards
3, Sorinola
4, Scarr
5, Gibson
6, Houghton
7. Mumba
8. Randell
9. Hardie
10, Whittacker

been saying for weeks now that we need three in midfield, it is so blindingly obvious but neither Foster nor Dewsnip seem to be able to see it. Play 4-3-1-2 with Whittaker as the link between midfield and forwards. Agree Devine in midfield as that's where he was playing at Port Vale. My team Copper - Sousa, Gibson, Phillips, Galloway - Houghton, Randell, Devine - Whittaker - Hardie, Bundu. Subs; Hazard, Edwards, Mumba, Pleggy, Wright, Roberts, Issaka.
We must be prepared for a physical game and early use of substitutes if necessary. Not a must win but feels like a must not lose!

In my opinion we should play 4-2-3-1 with Whittaker in the middle of the 3.
Playing him out wide (so wide) isolates him and he goes missing then has to try too hard.

Losing Matt Butcher could prove to be costly in my opinion in the current situation
Yeah but none of those 3 can tackle. That's a very soft centre. . Scarr not even on the bench. For a physical game as you say. You trying to get us relegated?
