What would your lineup be?
____________Mildenhall___________ Lockyer__Trotman___Parkes__Brown Monkhouse_Clarke___Mansell_Martin ___________Taylor__Cunnington____
Same team as Monday for me - don't feel that anyone deserves to be dropped after the performance at FGR. Would be tempted to reward Harrison with a start after his promising cameo, but I'm desperate for Taylor to get off the mark and I think he'd be a different player in front of goal after that (plus Ellis is a good impact sub IMO).
If Cunnington isn't fit to start (came off injured on Monday) then I'd play Gosling on the right and play Monkhouse as a target man next to Taylor.

Agree,Taylor seems popular but offers little goal threat in reality or historically as he's never been a big scorer so time to give White a chance.

Taylor has not scored in 5 games, White should get a fair go now. If Cunnington is out maybe put Brunt back.

Id swap Martin for Harrison and Taylor for White White just does not look fit to me. He still looks overweight.

Also he's the type of striker that literally needs chances set up on a plate for him, because he doesn't have the pace or general footballing ability to fashion a chance for himself out of nothing (DC has said as much). He's purely a fox in he box. Do we have the creativity in the side to create lots of guilt edge chances for our strikers? I have doubts atm.

Same team for me.
I find it a little funny that the 2 changes people are discussing - Taylor & Martin - are in my opinion our best 2 players. Taylor will be disappointed not to have scored but his overall play has been decent and I think the goals will come, hopefully tomorrow. I've also been impressed with Martin. He has been involved in some of the best football we've seen all season down our left side and he can can deliver decent crosses into the box.
I agree with DC, Brunt has been WELL off the pace and based on his performances this season I have serious doubts he'll ever fully recover from his injuries. Harrison has done okay in the last couple of games but for me he's best used as a second half impact sub and not a starter. White is a trickier one because we haven't seen a lot of him and his history shows he does score goals. He does look overweight though, which is disappointing and he didn't do a lot at Barnet. I think he's going to have to work hard on the training ground and get himself into better shape before he becomes a regular in the starting 11.
A quality signing or 2 before Mondays deadline and the addition of Turley in 3 weeks time should give us a decent squad to compete with most, if not all sides in this league.

Same team for me. Need to give continuity and give this lot the chance to take us on an unbeaten run whilst they're playing well.
On a side note, well done to Ollie Clarke who I thought was excellent on Monday. Was starting to write him off after the Telford match despite his goal I thought he was poor but he proved me wrong.

Got to be the same starting XI for me as well, they look as if they're 'gelling' together and if it ain't broke don't fix it, was concerned by Clarke in the Telford game, goal aside, and would've been tempted to bring Sinclair back in but he did well on Monday, so same same for me.

I thought he looked a totally different player tbh. His winner against Telford clearly gave him a lot of confidence. He was much calmer and more patient on the ball, and didn't treat it like a bomb that he was desperate to get rid of. Him and Mansell broke up play well in the centre too. Promising signs at least.

Agree with the starting XI above. I don't care if White was the size of Mickey Quinn if he scores goals, but he hasn't made any recognisable contribution in any of the games I have seen.
Taylor is due a goal or two in my opinion.

Taylor is due a goal or two in my opinion. He scored 7 in 7 for Chester. Another player where one goal may well give him the confidence to score a few more.

I've come away from every game this season saying something like this. I really think Matt Taylor has the potential, but I also think the same of Ryan Brunt. Somehow, we have not seen the best of Taylor, or White for that matter. It would be useful to do some homework on the goals Taylor scored at Chester of Forest Green to play to his strengths.

Compare White's impact on Monday's game to Sinclair's or Harrissn's on Saturday and you can understand why he's had so little game time, no idea if it's due to lack of fitness of confidence but he looks more off the pace than Brunt, at the moment he's a big disappointment.

He had 7 minutes and it was all fgr so a little harsh. Also Harrison didnt see much of the ball either at fgr. Sinclair runs around like a lunatic and had more game time
