What would your starting XI be against Lincoln City?

I’d go with the same starting XI as yesterday apart from starting Nige ahead of Odelusi

I don't think you can change the team too much from yesterday although I'd like to see Nige starting in midfield either for Dawson or Odelusi. Wright and Moore need to miss out but if Morrell is fit he should be on the bench.

But Odelusi is wide, fast and attacking. Completely different role and position to Nige.

Odelusi played just off the two strikers yesterday certainly not wide.

Fingers crossed this isn't another false dawn but it looks like the team are starting to click, the ball is being played from the back and not being lost, passes are finding their men and the team are chasing everything.

I still think was more 541 at start particularly without the ball. Graham was the striker and alternated a bit with Mo. Then with the ball Sammi got closer.

Second half it was much more of a two up top.

I'd also start Nige and play Dawson in the wider role.

Can Nige last the full 90? I would prefer to see him come on and finish games then be taken off. His composure can settle us if we're behind or in front and protecting a lead.

If Nige starts it should be for Pell, if any of them. Not Odelusi who played a big part in the first two goals!
