Depends on what's priority, defence or making something happen in the middle.

Unfortunately we've got to make something happen. But im still not sure this is the answer as such.

Bielik is just too slow in the middle and slows down breakaways as he looks around deciding where to pass the ball. At CB he is great and can bring the ball out and then pass to someone to make the break.

Probably what I would do. Only other alternative is Paik and Sunjic in mid with Roberts and Bielek at CB.

Beilik's been ace at centre-back in the last 2 games, so you don't change it.

Paik with either James or Bacuna in the middle.
There's too much opinion and not enough fact.

Formation should be sane as Cov with instructions of :

Do it again, or else !

Sanderson and Roberts playing the ball out from the back makes me sad.
It's like watching footage of a war crime.

Injuries barring I'd start the team v Cov.

Maybe, just maybe if Roberts is fully fit bring him in for Sanderson.

It's also possible to juggle Miyoshi, Bacuna, Anderson, Roberts, Dembele.
But I wouldn't.

Let's get some decent players in all round before we start worrying about playing out from the back. We just need to win games however we do it for now. Remember how playing out from the back turned out under Rooney with this set of players?

Both are solid championship defenders if they are organized properly.

I don't think they play well together.
I'd much rathe have one of them plus Bielik.
It feels better organised that way.
Plus when we do pass it out from the back we are much better at it.

It's like Harlee Dean and Roberts. Neither awful, but much worse as a pair than one of them plus someone else.

Bielik has done well in there. So yes, him and Roberts would be okay for tomorrow I reckon. Then Paik and Sunjic in midfield as I say. Long and Sanderson did okay together at the start of the season.

Beilik and Sanderson

Midfield James and Paik

Agreed, although Rowett will go with Sunjic what with James being far too young and inexperienced.
