Davey's Defensive Dilemma

Last updated : 14 December 2007 By @blades_mad1889

The Tykes travel to Bramall Lane tomorrow afternoon (kick-off: 3:00pm) with the Oakwell club in dire straights over selection problems in their back four.

Former Sheffield United and Derby County full-back Robert Kozluk has already been ruled out through injury whilst Dominik Werling is suspended after picking up his fifth booking in the 0-0 home draw with Crystal Palace last weekend.

That leaves just Dutch defender Marciano van Homoet to make his first team debut; the 23 year old was signed on a free transfer from Netherlands outfit Sparta Rotterdam in the summer and has yet to make an appearance.

Former Bury defender Dwayne Matis is a long term absence, which leaves Davey short at the back ahead of their game at Bramall Lane.
