The team i posted on here. 

I will posted it for you again. 

                          Raya

        Lenihan Mulgrew Williams

    Bennett Travis Smallwood Bell

                          Dack

               Graham Armstrong

Was only joking.

Not sure on the team at all. Williams and Downing remaining over the fit again Lenihan (hes not in a position where you can give him 15 minutes at the end) and Bell for me is wrong, as is Samuel, who has shown nothing, over Graham who has been scoring goals.

Danny obviously in need of a rest so can guarantee a brace from him on Saturday. Fancy us 2-1 tonight Armstrong and Dack

#Rovers: Raya, Nyambe, Mulgrew (c), Downing, Williams, Smallwood, Bennett, Payne, Dack, Armstrong, Samuel. 

Subs: Leutwiler, Lenihan, Bell, Travis, Evans, Conway, Graham. https://t.co/zYrIulfAJs

Could be Armstrong up front and Samuel out wide. Or two up front. But he's probably playing Payne and Armstrong out of position again.

Good to see Lenny back.

[blueboy3333]

They have a J Lowe playing for them. We should be ok.

Bottling the big decisions again, needs to be starting Bell at left back.

Why ?

With Payne and Armstrong starting we lack height throughout the team - so starting Williams makes sense from that perspective.

They are a similar height.

Williams is more defensive so makes sense against a team that will attack

Exactly the same height. 180cm. I was sad enough to look it up.

[FGS5635]

TBF pompey aren't prolific. I think they are the lowest scorers in the top half of the table.

Time for Samuel to step up. He has flattered to deceive for most of the season. Big chance for him

Way Bell played sat he doesn't deserve to start tonight

I'm okay with that team. He has Payne, Armstrong and Dack all playing. That's the main thing for me.

I agree. Just hope they rotate about a bit as payne looks quite ineffective stuck wide, yet a real threat central

Aye, Payne looked  weak and was easily pushed off the ball when out wide against Oldham.  He looked a different player more centrally in the 2nd half.

Come on the 'Pool and the Cod Army tonight:-

Cant see wigan slipping up at home. Fleetwood isn't the easiest of games midweek in crap weather though

[Preben]

None of us know what our best team is yet. I'm happy with the team for tonight.

Whether we win or lose will be decided in a minute's time when we see the team sheet.

So now you've seen the team sheet, can you please confirm if we're going to win, lose or draw?

[bluefred]

Win 1-2

Yep agreed. I quite like that side. Let's see if it pans out.

[Stuart]

Really strong bench tonight.

[davulsukur]

Dack booked after 3minutes!!

[islander200]

Good save from a Samuel chance

[FGS5635]

Oooooo wigan losing

[Preben]

Win 2-1

[Mike E]

It's the formation I'd play and very close to the personnel I'd play (Graham for Samuel and Bell for Williams).

Not going to knock that just yet. COYB

[Roboftherovers82]

Rotherham   are   the dark  horses for me they are on  a great run they cant stop winning
