No Sakamoto? Maybe we sold him on the sly.

[larry_david]

Thomas,mve and rudi all start

 

[procdoc]

are we playing 4-4-2 again

 

[bukayosakamoto]

Unrelated but I bloody love that kit

 

[Ccfcisparks]

are we playing 4-4-2 again

i reckon normal formation BTA RW

 

[SeshMouseSkyBlue]

0-0 with BTA hitting the corner flag X3

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

And the winner of ‘first mystery injury of the season’… come on down, Tatsuhiro Sakamoto!

 

[fatso]

Fuck the negativity, im going 0-2
Rudoni and Wright

So the Bolton United interest was real. Can’t compete with teams like that.

 

[bukayosakamoto]

Feel quietly confident about this one. I think a front 3 of Wright, EMC and BTA will be interesting as they'll all be able to interchange positions, I'm hoping they'll play really well off each other. It'll either work really well or be an absolute fucking disaster and the three of them will go anonymous for 90 minutes.

 

[Tommo1993]

They’ve gone defensive. We’re getting fuck all from today then.

 

[Fergusons_Beard]

No Saka? Weird

Raphael over BTA

 

[Perennial Lurker]

Saka was dreadful midweek when he came on

He would have started today

 

[aloisiwouldhavescored]

No Sakamoto and Simms only on the bench. What's going on?

We’ve seen this episode before.

I wouldnt say he was dreadful, just hardly touched the ball.

 

[David O'Day]

are we playing 4-4-2 again

4-4-2 off the ball and 3-1-6 on it

 

[Skybluedownunder]

D’ya reckon BTA is right wing or Wright/EMC?

Personally I would have had MVE right wing and KKH right back

We will definitely score if they sit back and defend. As I said above its a nailed on 2-0 away win!

 

[jto123]

Wasn’t really

 

[stupot07]

Saka was dreadful midweek when he came on

He's not in the squad so obviously injured or unwell.

 

[Great_Expectations]

Got to assume Sakamoto is injured.

BTA over Simms is expected, but shit.

 

[SkyBlueDom26]

4-4-2 off the ball and 3-1-6 on it

Maybe its a good time for Raphael to get his first League minutes from the bench.
I'd like to see him run at the opposition when they've got tired legs.

Hopefully Wright won’t be interchanging with the ghost of himself like we saw in the playoff games.

Why? MvE isnt a winger

 

[ptr]

Hope BTA is out wide because watching him against Clarke and Batth and Sanderson will be painful

 

[Fergusons_Beard]

Hope it’s not like last years match where they outfought us and got stuck in.

Our players wilted and didn’t look up for the fight.

Hopefully different game

I just don’t see what BTA offers at all. Spends most of the time getting in everyone else’s way.

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Simms was not that good in the week. It is a misconception some are trying to overcompensate on.

 

[ptr]

Derby set up to hit us on the counter then sit back and defend for their lives.

 

[Chris1987]

Another 90 minutes of seeing BTA run around a lot and lose the ball

 

[ptr]

Could well have set up 4-4-2 or 4-2-3-1

Wright and BTA through the middle and Rudoni out wide.
