For the next couple of games in my opinion is JCH for the underperforming Pringle, with Lawrence out wide and JCH up front. Frecks in for Green who I feel we are carrying at the moment. Smallwood and frecks are far better suited to each others strengths, Green is merely a backup to Smallwood in my eyes. Bowery to come on after 60 mins for Revs if needed.
The way we conceded that first goal was pretty dire too, it reminded me of Leyton Orient's second at Wembley. I'd generally agree with the above, Pringle and Green need a break, Pringle in particular was terrible today. Evans must have a reason why JCH doesn't start, but the case to start him is strengthening by the game. Ledesma needs more time, but the jury is out on him at the moment.

^^^^ Just said as much on another thred m8, agree 100%
Green need s to stay in for me. He is essential home and away and though he doesn't provide game change moments he is vital for the shape. Smallwood alongside him does at times look like overkill, but I don't think he can be chosen before green.
JCH is still unproven but like pod says it's difficult to leave him out. However, he hadn't proven himself over 90 mins yet.
I did like bowerys last 2 cameos and would be tempted to start him.
I'm sticking by my 'pringle thread' from several days ago - he is not going to cut it at this level. He is the obvious choice to make way for a more attacking option rather than sacrifice either smallwood or green.
