This is the team the PT would pick if Ward is absent.
We’ve gone for a 4-3-3 formation as there is no obvious right wing-back replacement for Ward.

10. JACK MARRIOTT
His recent misses shouldn't mean he should be left out. At least he gets into scoring positions. He's still way in front of those likely to be on the bench in terms of technical ability and experience. Photo: Joe Dent/theposh.com
11. JONSON CLARKE-HARRIS
If the likes of Joel Randall, Ephron Mason-Clark or David Ajiboye had shown any sort of form we'd play one of them out wide and leave JCH or Marriott out. It would probably be JCH who needs someone playing alongside him. Photo: Joe Dent/theposh.com
12. THE SUBSTITUTES
Will Blackmore is the back-up goalkeeper, Ricky Jade-Jones (pictured) is a forward who would preferably be used if Posh are ahead, Randall and Mason-Clark by default as Ajiboye played for the under 21s today so won't be involved. Burrows can cover a couple of positions and Josh Knight is the sub defender. Hector Kyprianou is the midfield support. Photo: Joe Dent
