Ward is travelling up to Donny with the rest of the squad on the team coach. The hamstring injury is not as bad as first thought and may feature in Oscar's plans for tomorrow.

He'll have a late fitness test tomorrow morning. An interesting dilemma for Oscar , does he give him the nod over Calde with the possibility he wont last 90 minutes or have him on the bench as defensive cover ?

Seems a bit silly to risk him when Calderon is an adequate replacement.

With Bruno on 4 yellows all we need is to risk Ward and he goes off , out for 4 weeks and then Bruno gets another yellow. Best to rest him surely.

Vitalijs Maksimenko.
Stay home, Wardy.

With Bruno's yellow cards I would give Ward a little extra time to recover and not risk him this week. I do not think that Calderon is ideal at left back but we could start Maksimenko and if he proves not up to it bring on Calderon.

Agreed. I'd rather he rested properly and Calde was on the bench or starting at right back.

What has happened to Chicksen the only player we paid money for this season and who also happens to be a left back?

Is he not out on loan?!
Completely agree with this, smart move and Bruno will almost certainly pick up a 5th today

Play Bruno at right back, and Calde at left back. Rest Ward, and then if Bruno picks up his 5th yellow card, Calde can revert to right back for the visit of Blackburn next week, with Ward coming back in on the left.

How about not play Bruno because he is not very good?

I will ask again, does anyone know what has happened to Chicksen?

There was talk of Maksimenko going out on loan once Dunk returned from his loan spell. Dunk returned from his loan spell injured so those plans are now on hold.
I don't know if he's injured, he didn't feature for the development squad in the defeat to Cardiff earlier in the week. Unless he wasn't being risked as he was being considered as a replacement for Ward.

I don't understand this signing to be honest. He is the only player we have paid a fee for this season and he has not had a look in on any first team games.
With the way we have been so careful in not wasting our money because of FFP, I would have thought he must have been some player for him to be the only purchased player this season.
He was brought "for the future". He might have played in the first three games when before we signed ward, but he was injured.

He is 22, and played 46 first team games for MK Dons. I would have thought if he was any good, he should be pushing for a first team spot with the current injury crisis.
