Your starting XI for Bolton

I think we're pretty much set for a 4-4-2, diamond, formation against Bolton now. 

It's not my formation, but based on pre-season form, I wouldn't be surprised to see this team:

Grant

Christie, Keogh, Shackell, Forsyth

Thorne

Hughes, Hendrick

Ince

Martin, Russell

Carson, Shotton, Pearce, Baird, Bryson, Weimann and Bent

I would go with this... Haven't seen weimann play and don't know if martin is fit yet.  . Bit concerned our golden four of ince bent , weimann and martin have scored on,y one goal between them in pre seaon. Thought they would be scoring goals for fun.

I know I made my team before but having dissected it , I've made a few controversial changes:

               Grant

Baird Keogh Pearce Forsyth

            Thorne

Bryson               Hughes

              Ince

Martin                      Russell

As you can see I haven't included Shackell or Weimann. The reason for not including Shackell is because he hasn't played any pre season matches so we don't know how fit he is. I haven't included Weimann either because Russell has been in fine form and it would be harsh to leave him out.

Since we also play Portsmouth in the league cup that same week ,  I think we should play Shackell in that game to see how sharp he is and if he is then we can play him alongside Keogh against Charlton.

Incidently this would be my team for the Portsmouth game:

         Carson

Christie Shotton(if he isn't sold) Shackell Warnock

                     Hanson

Ssewankambo(played in this position in pre season)  Hendrick

                       Calero

     Bent                             Weimann

one slight tweak... I would have Dawkins for shotton. Baird can cover for christie at RB and also for Thorne in midfield. Dawkins and Bryson for further midfield cover and weimann and bent for forward cover. Does look pretty strong to me, just hope we don't get injuries.

For me 2 formations would stick out, 1: safe and balanced, 2: bit more risky but i believe it could work.

1:    Grant / Carson (still not to bothered which)

Baird Keogh/pearce (form dependant) Shackell    Warnock

                      Thorne         Hughes

Ince                      Martin                    Russell

                         Weimann

2:        Grant / Carson (still not to bothered which)

     Keogh         Pearce          Shackell

            Baird                Thorne

Ince            Hughes             Russell

          Martin            Weimann 

 

Bent isnt in either only because I believe he could be a better super sub but again form dependant he and weimann can swap in and out.

My best eleven always has twelve players in it! Rock hard to pick the team. Rotation, rotation, rotation.

Like the 1st line up, but what if Pearce has a blinder, and Keogh a mare, just don't see that Pearce has come here as backup. 

Also not sure I'd change the entire team, smacks of not knowing our best line up so give them all a chance. 

I'd like to see as little change as possible amongst the back four at the start of the season, give them a chance to learn each others strengths and weaknesses before we start resting players.
