The Seasiders are currently four points behind the top six, but some of the teams above them have played less games. Inconsistency has been an issue for Neil Critchley’s side, but there is still plenty of talent in the squad to still ensure it’s a successful campaign at Bloomfield Road.
Here’s our strongest Blackpool XI and bench based on the season so far:

4. CB: Olly Casey
The central role in the back three has become the closest contest in Blackpool's line-up. Marvin Ekpiteta has produced a number of impressive displays in recent weeks, but based his performances at the beginning of the season, Olly Casey just edges it. Photo: CameraSport - Dave Howarth
