I'm sorry but I can't see past the constant use of Yates and colback in the middle. That has such an impact on the team and how they play.
I don't think he is capable of changing the system at all is he. He isn't going to ay carv.
I would take Johnson out and bring him on in the second half... with CH in charge that would be about 85 minutes.
Johnson whilst having bags of ability did very little in the Bournemouth game and nothing in the 2nd half against cov.
For me lolley also has to come out of the team. He has been awful in both games.
My team
Hoath
Gabriel Figs mckenna tutu
Yates fornah
Mighten carv zinc
Taylor
I go with Taylor as the slight more mobile option but part of me would rather see Swan start.

do kind of want to see what Horvath can offer in a proper match i must say. But blackburn like to cross balls into box and Samba is good and coming for those crosses.

Not that it matters and sure its miles off what CH will do but I'd go:
Samba (no more crap goals please)
Tutu McKenna Figs (by default) Colback
Zink Yates Fornah or Johnson Lolley
Carvhalho
Taylor
Mighten possibly for Lolley, but with such ineffective fullbacks, I don't go for the inverted winger crap. Left footer on left, Right footer on right to get the crosses on Taylors head.
Our side does look very lightweight though, so I get CH thinking with Colback/Yates even if I'm unsure about it.
