                            Larin

This team for me

Around 1000 tickets left in the home end, hopefully get close to a sell out as match day approaches.

We must make a fast start with no walking football. Get at them and dont allow them time to settle.

Would prefer Wellington for Manning and Wood for Stephens. Maby Azaz for Masuki and play Dobbins right wing.

Not bad going that, assume most unsold are either side of away end,  looks like Stoke will have about 1000 empty in the away end as well (blocks 27 and 28) (they've sold about 1900 so far)

I wouldn't be playing Dobbin on the wing at all. I'd give Fellows a run out on the right with Matsuki and Dobbin on the bench and Azaz starting. Agree about Wood though:

Peretz 

Bree THB Wood Manning 

Fellows Downes Jander (if fit) Scienza 

Azaz 

Larin 

Should be enough to win us the game.

I wouldn't be dismantling that based on one game whilst the majority of the team looked rusty.

Thought we also looked sluggish against Colchester. Maybe it's my selective memory, but it feels like we never get off to a good start at the beginning of the season.

That stated, confident we'll beat Stoke. Don't expect Jander to start. On bench at best. I would start with Azaz and keep back four same as Watford. Is Wellington fit? He was just starting to get in to his stride last season but is also another player that's injury prone.
