Oliver Arblaster is a slight doubt for Sheffield United ahead of tomorrow’s trip to Portsmouth, after making way with ilness at half-time of Monday night’s defeat at home to Middlesbrough. The Blades are also without the suspended Joe Rothwell for the Fratton Park clash.
That could see a reprieve for Djibril Soumare while Chris Wilder may be tempted to shuffle his pack in other areas as his side look to get back to winning ways at the first possible attempt.
With that in mind we tasked our man with selecting the side he would send out to face John Mousinho’s side on the south coast - is this the XI you’d pick as well or would you do anything differently?
1. Michael Cooper
His distribution was questioned again on Monday after a mishit kick led to Boro's opening goal but he has good individual memories of this ground, making a stunning save at Fratton Park last season - and hopefully that bodes well for the repeat trick this time around | Getty Images
2. Femi Seriki
At some stage you suspect Hoever may come in purely from a rotation perspective but you'd also be reluctant to break up the partnership between Brooks and Seriki down the right which has been so dangerous lately | Barrington Coombs/PA Wire Photo: Barrington Coombs/PA Wire
3. Japhet Tanganga
He came straight back into the side after his recent suspension and you suspect it'd take something similarly substantial to keep him out of the starting XI | Barrington Coombs/PA Wire Photo: Barrington Coombs/PA Wire
4. Tyler Bindon
The Forest man's turnaround has been a remarkable one and he will be learning so much by the game in the Championship. It's easy to forget how young he is, only turning 21 last month, which is a testament to his abilities and character too Photo: Craig Thomas
