    Now that Doyle is back and confirmed to be in contention, he HAS to start

    Logic would suggest Vaughan and Doyle up top but given Bowyers tactics it’s likely Vaughan will make way

    He didn't make Doyle work in those three games at the beginning of the season so it will be interesting to see how this one lines up. Certainly no more of that 5 at the back malarkey.

    I think we will see Vaughan and Doyle up top but I don’t think we will be playing 442.

    I can see Bowyer playing 532/352 depending if we are attacking or defending. I hope I’m wrong

    I hope that was said with your tongue lodged firmly in your cheek!

    But I have my concerns about this suggestion

    So City have made a statement, by bringing Doyle back ......... I can only hope Bowyer backs this up with his team selection and game plan against Crawley. I'm hoping for a 0 - 2 WIN here. Over to you, Gary ..........

    Vaughan to make way for who, I can't see Donaldson being a starter.

    5 at the back enables a pair up front though.

    For a midfielder. Doyle would be a lone striker was his point.

    Not what I would do personally but I think Bowyer will play with a narrow 4-1-3-2

    ————O’Donnell ————

    Mellor—AOC—-BRE—-Wood

    ————-Reeves—————

    —-Taylor—Cooke -Palmer—

    ———Vaughan Doyle———

    Defensive, but not 5-3-2 defensive.

    Personally, and I'm not saying I agree, but I think he start Doyle on the bench, and play Vaughan as the lone striker. Especially with it being away. Brings Doyle on around seventy mins and switches to a 442.

    For once it would be nice to see a little unpredictability from GB and a demonstration of an ability to accommodate our in form striker in a way that works for the team.

    Chances are he’ll be back at Swindon by the end of the month so can’t see him changing to much with our formation
