By going off of the snippets of information that Bowyer has given to us and from watching a few things on social media. I think that we will play a diamond tomorrow but it will be different to what people might expect.
I can actually see things being...
Steer Solly Bauer Pearce Page Cullen Reeves Aribo Ward Grant Taylor
This formation and the personnel involved will easily be able to drop into a 4-3-3 with Grant going out wide right when we don’t have the ball, but also have that license to roam out there when attacking as he does like to do. Ward would drift from the left hand side coming into the number ten position where we will almost have two number tens with Reeves with him, behind the front two, and with Page pushing on to provide the width on the left hand side. I do think it could be a little lop sided and over reliant on our left creating chances for us, but at the same time it has plenty of pace, fluidity, players able to dribble with the ball and players very capable of playing too.
The worry is the lack of natural sitting and ball winning midfielder away from home, but with that midfield four all very capable of putting in the hard graft covering the ground, which Bowyer looks for, it could make up for that lack of type of player.
Bradford City 1-3 Charlton Athletic
Taylor Ward Pearce
My prediction looks pretty damn good now, I must say...
I thought Ward was more of a left sided player ?? I know LB said he could play anywhere across the front, but all the clips of him showed him on the left.
But it could be a 433 with Ward up top and Reeves in midfield
I thought Bowyer said he liked Ward coming in from the left, so wonder if diamond, with Cullen play back, Aribo and Ward wide and Reeves playing the No 10 role. Just a thought

He also brings energy, hard running and pressures defenders.
