maffff Since the predictions thread is already up.
Adkins hopes Williams will be fit. Hopefully fit enough to start rather than on the bench.
Keown picked up an injury training with the first team. He travelled to Blackburn so may well have been our defensive cover on the bench.
Injuries
Morrison - confirmed end of November out for a couple of weeks. No confirmation he is back in training yet.
Bridge - out until the new year
Baird - Injured pre- Blackburn. Out for a couple of weeks
Karacan - long term injury
Roberts - RIP?
For me
McCarthy
Gunter Pearce Gorkss Cummings
McCleary, Williams, Guthrie, Obita
Sharp Pog
Bench
Federici, Kelly, McAnuff, Drenthe, Blackman Le Fondre, Robson-Kanu
Cummings was decent, as he always is when he comes in at this level, can see him and Gunter being more to Adkins preference than the liability that is Stephen Kelly.
It was a bit harsh on Obita getting dropped for Charlton, but that was to cover the defensive situation. Jobi had a poor game and now Cummings has had a match to get himself up to speed perhaps we can integrate Obita back in. The thought of Ritchie up against a makeshift left back is pretty terrifying though.
Beyond that, same team. Push Kelly to the bench and Akpan can watch from the stands.

If Williams is injured I'd give Obita a chance in the middle. I personally think he's too lightweight, but he's says it's his preferred position and Adkins will take a lot of grief if he starts Akpan.

Obita can only play in the middle if we play 451/433. Which i dont think we will as Adkins prefers 442 at home.

Hence the lightweight comment, but with Leigertwood, Karacan, Baird and Williams injured it's either Obita, Akpan or McAnuff. He wants to play there, so I'd give him a shot over the other two.

LoyalRoyal22 Adkins shooting himself in the foot when he wants us to play out from the back but uses a formation that encourages us to play the Brian way.

Magic Hat He wants to play in the middle, I'd give him the opportunity to start to prove himself.
