Just seen the hilights on Ifollow and that was a hard fought point we got. Even Tomlin put in a shift and tracked back.

Let me get this straight. We let two left backs go last summer, we let another go in January, so now we should let our one remaining left back go as well (although he is a better CB)?

Tomorrow night we should keep the same CB pairing. There is no reason to change it. I would sooner play Fox in the middle and Iacovitti at LB. Darikwa seems like our only option at RB.

Fuentes might get a game, if not why not risk Iacovitti
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Iacovitti wasn't getting a game at FGR before he was recalled, so not deemed ready; somebody suggested that non league was his level. I haven't seen him play, he was on the bench against Wycombe and didn't make a appearance.

Yes, Worrall is the future and Fox is out of contract in the summer. There is little chance of him getting a renewal. He would have to display some stunning form in the next few months to even make Karanka think twice.

Karanka says he is in contract negotiations, I have to say he isn't the worse player in the squad and made a game saving block on Saturday that might have just kept Karanka in his job.

I agree with Red50, don't change a successful combination.

Darikwa has never looked like a fullback to me, but I don't think that defending, blocking crosses into the box was seen as his primary role.

According to Wikipedia Iacovitti played 14 games for FGR this season before we recalled him. Some may have been sub appearances of course. If not Iacovitti tomorrow the another left footed defender from the U23s.

I think starting with three at the back would be too radical for AK.
