I think Phillips is more likely based on physicality and having already having had experience playing mens level with a handful for starts last season in the Championship with Blackburn. Also been on the bench a few times already this season. Few wayward passes in recent games but I think he fits the system a bit better than having PEH/Royal out of position. Big fan of Dorrington and I think he's been slightly better this season for the u21s and looked quite good against the mens teams in the EFL Trophy games but not really had enough experience against men outside of that and training so imagine he's slightly behind Phillips at the moment. There's another u21s EFL trophy game tonight against Cambridge, wouldn't be surprised if both left out so they can train with first team.
all our attackers are fine, im not too concerned about wolves. Probably won't keep a clean sheet now but think we'll have too much fire power for them overall.
its villa, newcastle and man city games straight after thats the problem now
Well Richy isn’t fine! Hes gonna have surgery on his pubis. We are cursed!
Is Davies even fit
Neither are quick, we need a foot runner and that may mean taking a risk on Philips.
You can say other teams go high line we but go extreme. Davies and Hojbjerg would have to be perfect in the offside trap for them to be a partnership.
If Madds is out I'd like to try Kulu as the creative spark , switch Brennan to the right wing and stick Richie out on the left.

I like your idea of sneakily playing 5 in our back 4.
Serious for a moment - I'll be a bit surprised if Maddison's fit. If he's able to start I think he'll only play 60 mins. Richarlison may need to take his place.
I don’t think I’ve ever been more desperate to watch us play again.
Surely I’m mad, right?

I’m exactly the same. The reaction will be interesting to see.
Just heard Richy is having surgery on his pelvis, been having trouble for 8 months apparently. Always the same with our medical staff. See how it goes then surgery.
U21 game tonight. Be interesting to see if Dorrington or Phillips get pulled
Having a Brazilian?
From what Ange said sounds like Maddison was purely precautionary and tactical adjustments due to sending offs.
You’re not, I’m just as eager for the match against Wolves.
The injuries and suspensions are beyond fucked, but it’s intriguing to see what Ange will do about the line-up. It would be absolutely glorious to see the team bounce back and show their resilience.
Will need to score 3 to win this.
Wolves 100% getting a penalty and probably can’t expect a brand new CB pairing in this system to not give them at least 1 goal.
