MATCHWATCH : Brentford (h)

[bcubed]

This is the sort of game that if we win, we get 3 points, and if we lose we get none.

So it's critical we win.

I agree

JLow reporting Swift and Meite likely to be missing this evening.

[Hendo]

JLow reporting Swift and Meite likely to be missing this evening.

So that guarantees they're both starting then, etc...

[Hound]

urgh hopefully not true. Could really do with Swifts ability to hold the ball

[Zip]

Not at all good if true

[URZZZZ]

JLow reporting Swift and Meite likely to be missing this evening.

Not good news, hopefully not out for too long, I suppose at least Joao isn’t out as well (fingers crossed). Bearing that in mind, would go with:

Rafael

Yiadom
Morrison
McIntyre
Richards

Laurent
Rinomhota

Olise
Semedo
Ejaria

Joao

I would play Aluko instead of Semedo. Otherwise the same side as above and with Olise playing centrally.
A bit disheartened about these injuries though.

[Zip]

I’m hoping Swift might be a tight hamstring so he isn’t being risked. Not sure on Yaks. I hope it’s not his knee.

Not sure I’d trust Aluko defensively against Henry - too much wandering around in the wrong area of the pitch so unfortunately I think Olise has to stay wide

Massive loss, Swift has been terrific since coming back.

And we all know what we get with Meite.

[Jagermesiter1871]

Any idea what's happened to the 2 of them?

[Mid Sussex Royal]

I'm sure Pauno said we'd come out of Stoke with no more injuries so hopefully just precautionary for both of them...there are a lot of games now, this is the most compressed run for the rest of the season with 4 successive mid week games.

[Ascotexgunner]

Please not Aluko, Please not Aluko, Please not Aluko, Please not Aluko........
We are seriously f*cked if these players are missing. No chance of a late fitness test on either I suppose.

[Stranded]

Shame if out but we've hardly had Swift all season and we've been more than ok. Meite has ben out bar 2 sub apps and we've not lost this calendar year so not sure it is the end of the world.

[Ascotexgunner]

Hoping the pitch is frozen and the game gets called off. Theres still time.
Brentford should have been forced to play us last time, even if they could only field their under 8s.
Aluko and Baldock might have found their level then.

[Mid Sussex Royal]

Sounds like Meite out for a while - he's just posted on twitter saying he'll be back for the last push

[Pepe the Horseman]

Nevers on the bench maybe? I know our hands were tied, but just shows how badly we needed to strengthen in Jan.

[windermereROYAL]

Bloody hell if Joao gets injured again its goodbye play-offs.

[Sutekh]

Semedo and Yiadom in. Meite and Swift out.

He`s just posted again saying the last push doesn`t mean he`s out for long.
