Cole and Carew I see as perfect players to bring on after 60 or 70 minutes or so. Strangely enough Cole seems to play a lot better and with a lot more heart and desire when he doesn't start. Would love to see Maynard/Baldock combo at some point and how Brum deal with them.
Regardless of starting team, having an almost fully fit squad, what an impressive bench we could have for the game today, have your pick from: Collins, Faye, Diop, Collison, Morrison, Lansbury, Baldock, Cole, Carew...
Yes this is almost 100% right. The only disagreement I have is the Carew question If you keep an unchanged team from Barnsley (which I think is sensible) then you don't need both Cole and carew on the bench: I'd have the same starting eleven with Faye, Diop, Lansbury, Baldock and Cole on the bench. I'd even consider having Morrison in place of Faye or Diop if I'd seen him play!
