Eh no.He has been in awful form, let's be honest. But he does have a habit of scoring against them.
I have been his biggest critic of late but i do think something happens in games against them for him. I would give him 45 mins and see if it happens for him.
This for me.Would play him on left instead of windass in 4-5-1 formation.
My thoughts tonly Holt for Pena.Holt knows what it's all about.What are the options...
Hodson LB, John LW - Hodson is a big no for me. He's brutal.
Hodson RB, Tavernier RM, Candeias LW - see above RE: Hodson.
Windass LW - should be nowhere near the starting line up.
Dorrans left side - rather have him centrally.
Dalcio or Nemane - not a chance. That's not dissing their ability.
Pena LW - not for me, get him in behind Morelos.
Miller - there are no other options, unless we play Morelos left side and Herrera up top.
Not keen on Miller playing wide left or in behind the striker but not many other options
Jack Dorrans
Candeias Pena Miller
Morelos

Holt is a good wee fighter in a 5 midfield.Thats when he is best.I'd imagine Pena will understand what it's all about too.
Holt offers very little in an offensive or defensive way.
This^^^^^ I don't fancy Windass as a starter in this game as he can be too lightweight
Pointless reply to a threadPointless thread - He'll start.
Use him as a sub only. Yes he's scored against them in the past but his current form is rank. Pena in behind Morelos.
We'll need to use Windass on the left but have Nemane ready to sub him if he continues his recent poor form. DJ to replace Wallace at LB.
The bigger conundrum is whether to play McCrorie instead of Cardoso (assuming Alves is fit to play)
100 %Pena, who I think will turn out a good one, would be over-run this weekend. He definitely isn't ready.
