Sheff Utd starting lineup?

With the latest injuries to Brooks and Kelly, what would everyone’s starting 11 be next Saturday? Must say I am surprised about Kelly’s injury since I can’t temember reading anything about it however said it was done in May.

Anyone know how long Lewis Cook is away? He’s appeared to be running for ages.

Boruc
Stacey
Mepham
Ake
Smith
Fraser
Lerma
????
Ibe?
King
Wilson

4-4-2. CM, GK and upfront will be interesting, especially with Solanke having a couple good games over pre season.

Looking forward to seeing everyone else’s opinions!
 
--------------Boruc--------------
Stacey---Mepham---Ake---Smith
-------Lerma-------Billing-------
Ibe-----------King-----------Fraser
--------------Wilson--------------

Subs: Any GK honestly, Rico, Simpson, Arter, Kilkenny, Solanke, Surridge

Maybe Wilson, maybe that dutch guy, who knows who else could be on the bench. Who knows who'll be fit after Lazio! Tough to pick between Stacey and Rico atm. Kilkenny a wildcard pick, also shows how light we are, somehow, at the start of a fresh new season.
 
Can we pick two 11s from randoms in the crowd for these two friendlies, and wrap up everyone in the squad in cotton wool.

I could attempt 10 minutes of headless chicken, at say full back. I've great experience in that back at Hurn Bridge u14s

More or less what I was thinking but would have Smith at right back and start with Rico on the left.

This is depressing ... as someone else said , can’t we just lock them in the Bath hotel until first game of the season .
 
Will Arter not go do we think? Surely were not going to start the season with 6 senior CM’s
Think we'll need him tbh.....Billing won't start straight away even if he's fit enough which is doubtful...that just leaves Lerma ....Surman and Arter for the start of the season....would be madness to let him go before January.

My God if Ibe is starting the season I highly recommend you guys hold off on buying season tickets for next year until championship league prices are announced.

I read that place was full of people on stag nights these days.
a good place to get knifed.

"Sad to recall that only 25 years ago the Royal Bath was one of two genuine AA/RAC 5-star hotels in Bournemouth (along with the Carlton), yet now its the Ryanair of Bournemouth hotels - packed full of chavs, thugs, and clearly now knife-wielding criminals. Anyone who remembers the quality and class and sophistication of the guests (and staff) in the past will simply WEEP if they venture inside today and see the dilapidation, and the rock-bottom quality of the people who stay there, many chronically, morbidly or terminally obese, most attired in what looks like second-hand Primark or last season's Matalan, and an awful number sporting more tattoos than a Japanese Yakuza. And that's just the women."

With a fluid front four.

I think we can win this 6-5...
 
Interesting that everyone has gone Boruc. Certainly hope if that’s the case (which I’m happy with) then the 2 young lads can both get long term loan deals, with recall clauses in, and leave Bego as number 2 all season since appears we can’t get rid

One of Travers or Ramsdale needs to stay we can’t rely on 2 keepers with injuries etc
