Sheffield United need to get themselves back on the horse, and quickly, after a Boxing Day bruising at Wrexham saw some familiar failings rear their ugly heads again. The Blades go to Stoke City tomorrow looking for a swift response to the 5-3 defeat.
Boss Chris Wilder may have already been planning changes but that process may have been accelerated by too many off-days in North Wales, although a lack of options in certain key areas is limiting how much he can do until the January window opens for business.
We tasked our man with coming up with the side Wilder could send out at Stoke - has he got it just about right or would you do anything differently?
1. Michael Cooper
Conceding five at Wrexham will have been a shock to the system after a period of solidity from United defensively but without Cooper it could have been worse. He's been questioned by some supporters this week but I'm not sure which of the five he could have done any better with | Sportimage
2. Femi Seriki
Seriki was excellent going forward in the first half at Wrexham and laid on two goals for Bamford with superb crosses, before his influence waned in the second period.

The Blades skipper looked a long way from his usual composed self as Wrexham's front three ran United ragged and as the man with the armband, has got to step up to the plate when things start to go against his side | Justin Setterfield/Getty Images
4. Tyler Bindon
The Forest loanee had a pretty torrid time of it as he scored an own goal and gave away a penalty but for me he's built enough credit in the bank over the last few weeks to go again. Whether boss Wilder agrees, we'll only know on Monday Photo: Simon Bellis
