What is everyone's starting XI? I used Fotmob to put this one together

Why have you swapped Kemp and Roberts around when Kemp sucks whenever he plays wide?
Silly boy.
Also, the same team has started four of our six games, with just one and two changes in the others, so everybody is surely going to just have an almost identical side?

In light of the above, a more interesting question might be what people would select on Tuesday evening. Almost two weeks until our next league game, so could play a stronger team than usual, but at the same time we have a number of players who could do with some game time, which is what Revs will roll with I am sure. And if we lose, we still have two very winnable home games in order to qualify.
I would suggest the below remains a strong team that can win, maintains the formation and style we have succeeded with this season, but also gives those in need of minutes a start, whilst the others are those with the fewest minutes so far, who need to play as the obvious replacements are not available.
Taye
Pattenden Sweeney Freestone Butler
Phillips White
? ? Phoenix
Ahadme
The ? depend on who else is fit and available, but may need to be Campbell and Kemp.
I would very much like to see Taye, Pattenden and Gassan start at the very least as I have liked what I have seen of the latter two and would like to see what they can offer during a full match, and want to see how Taye looks after very little action for some time now.

Would have been just one out if I knew Jovan and Bez were available, as they would have taken the two ?, with just Doherty for Phillips being wrong.
Happy with that, want to see how they all fare playing 90 (or thereabouts).
We have serious and impressive depth to our squad. Even guys like Louis T and Jake Young are still to come back too.

Didn't include him as I am not sure he will ever be fit again.

We must have surely made sure he had an extensive medical given his past.Realse you can never account for broken legs etc but this appears to just be a some sort of reaccurance of anold issues ? Wish him the best and hope I am wrong but if not we might have another player on our books for at least a season out.

It’s only just September. Let’s not write him off just yet.
Assume/hope the club did their due diligence and his contract recognises his recent injury history. If so, the risk is worth the potential reward which is an undoubtedly good player.

Matheus back on the bench too. Got some proper squad depth this season. Love to see it.

Doherty in the middle. Matheus on one flank and push Phillips slightly forward like we did for a while yesterday. Assuming all are fit to play.
Would like to see Doherty play all three group games in this, see what he’s got about him.

Mathaeus would have been a given, but the fact he hasn't been seen in the squad for a while makes me assume he isn't available. If he is, him and Phoenix on either flank.

It would also be interesting to see if we start with two up to at any point, or just use it towards the end of a match

Aye, if I knew Malcolm was fit (or Young) I would have gone two up top on Tuesday, but if we just have Reid and Ahadme at the minute, I very much suspect it will be Ahadme alone.

Actually on this we probably don't know our best line up given the injuries and when they are back but go with most on here based on current availability.

Can’t argue with that. Feel Roberts and Kemp are interchangeable in their positions.
Marschall’s done nothing wrong but I’m pro Taye still.

Taye is unlucky. The loans we've got in at GK have been just slightly better than him

Yup.
I hope Taye leaves and does really well for himself somewhere he is appreciated.

The fact we have such a nailed-on cast iron back four is making me anxious about the inevitable injuries and/or suspensions.

Freestone came in and did a job deputising for Butler, so at least there's some depth on show so far!

Was tempted to put two up top - Reid and Ahadme
