I personally wouldn’t change a winning side.. I think our defenders are more comfortable 4 at the back but I have a feeling kranky will go 5 at the back tonight I can see him trying to include Valery.
Going to be a tough one tonight but With no one expecting a result they may just surprise us

Fingers crossed...

I’d stick with the same team, but as I said the other day, I have a feeling he might go with the side that finished the game, Leko aside.

People say there are no free hits in our position, but with everybody expecting a spanking, it’s definitely a free hit... Have a bit of a go and you just never know!

I’m not an advocate of the pragmatic approach at all, but given our inferior goal difference at the bottom, would a similar approach from the away game be more sensible? Especially as we stayed up on goal difference in 2014.

I know I sound defeatist, but that’s what 2 home wins in 23 does to you!!

My view is that we're not good enough to set up defensively and soak up pressure, see Norwich away... Goal difference could play a part down the line, but we're already quite far behind, I wouldn't even be focusing on that...

Good point, we’ve always got a mistake in us as well - hope we stick with the same 11, felt there was a good fluidity to our play, unlike when MSJ / Clayton are playing and slow down the pace.

Hope he keeps the same side as Saturday the pitch will help us tonight as it won’t help Norwich’s fluent passing game. Going for a nervy 1-0 Blues win.

I genuinely don't think our pitch has helped us all season, hope you're right though!

I'd line up with the same 4-3-3 that started on Saturday.

Going ultra-defensive against Norwich won't yield anything. We may as well be up & at them and give it a go. With the confidence gained from Saturday's win, you never know...

Well that's one in the eye for all those predicting 5 at the back.

Heavy defeat incoming
