Well time for all us would be pundits to get warmed up for Wednesday.
Would be interested to hear what you would do if you were JR.
Option 1 : Start with the finishing line up on Saturday in a 442.
Option 2 : Try to spring a surprise with 433 and have Bowditch playing in the hole, perhaps start Magic on the bench and have Horlock shielding the back 4 - defensive 433
Option 3 : 433 with Pablo added and Magic in CM - attacking 433
Option 4 : Play 5 at the back with 2 wing backs Wilnis & Richards and Magilton, Westlake and Miller or Westy, Miller & Currie in mid.
Option 5 : Start with the starting lineup from Saturday but with Richards in for Diallo.
Maybe there are other contenders.

I think we should adopt the Stuart Pearce approach.
Play Lewis Price in goal and stick Kelvin up front!

When Stuart Pearce was Forest manager he once picked a team without a goalie (until his wife pointed out his mistake!), so I just think he was making up for it yesterday by playing two!

Well it looks pretty unambiguous up to now
Doesn't anyone think that in cup tie football you need to do something unexpected to give you a strong start ?

Well Kelvin has said he always wanted to be a striker at heart, and score goals rather than save them.... thank god for us he did decide to pursue a career between the sticks instead
