    Bloody Klopp’s got a lot to answer for with his 433 attacking hi press, seems this is the pick of the way we wish to take on. Shrewsbury. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Reise Allassani Recalled

    With potentially no wingers what the flip you getting a target man for? Who’s giving him service? It’s just another roll of the dice without wingers to bring the ball through the thirds Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Is Ogogo a saleable asset???

    Not sure where this is heading but MR has not used Ogogo out of position yet this season or asked of him to play a position he’s unfamiliar playing in. He’s been played centrally as a central midfielder or mostly as a defensive midfielder both of which he’s played his whole career comfortably...

    Reise Allassani Recalled

    How do you come to this conclusion? This season after his suspension was up he’s sat out 2 spells once with a virus the club ran blood tests on and the other was groin strain sustained against Accrington so not available for selection for games. Last season he had food poisoning missing one...

    Robins feeling the pressure?

    Mark Robins is likely experiencing the worst spell as a manager of his career currently after possibly the best. Stats say he’s overseen No wins in 8 competitive games No league win in 6 games 3 consecutive defeats (last 2 were slightly unfortunate) 2 points from a possible 18 6 scored 4 in...

    I think a lot of that with Shipley is confidence with the ability question too currently to perform at this level. Let’s face it sections tell him all the time he’s not good enough, hardly inspiring and a mental issue to overcome if he’s gonna make it. In truth the midfield is weak with Shipley...

    I don’t think I would either, it’s a bit too expansive. Both Shipley and Bayliss are not disciplined enough to do the roles asked in a 433. If Kelly is asked to step up to a normal midfield position then it’s almost what we’re playing currently yet it’s failing Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    I think the introduction of natural wingers would help the balance of the squad massively, this I believe should help the ability to create opportunities helping our failings in front of goal a lot. If we have the opportunity I’d find a natural target man to work off likely on loan given the...

    Is Ogogo a saleable asset???

    Many won’t agree but that would 100% be my 1st choice. That’s the best way to move forward as a club on current impact on the side in the short term. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Is Ogogo a saleable asset???

    Yes but he’s not for sale in my eyes. Need to get his fitness up to speed and fit him like others around new players to all fit one system all are comfortable in. He’s a decent free signing on the back of previous seasons, 13/14 both supporters and club player of the year award at Dagenham (L2)...

    I completely understand the point you make in terms of sitting deep and the 4141 system he’s recently utilised but I’m mixed in my feelings towards it with current players available for selection. It gives a element of flexibility as he struggles to find a solution with available players. The...

    I can see the same 11 as Luton if Willis is fit with MR sticking with 4141. --------------Burge------------- Grimmer--Willis--Davies--Brown --------------Kelly------------ Thomas-Bayliss-Shipley-Hiwula --------------JCH-------------- However I’d select this to go to Shrewsbury and stick with...

    Was Russell Slade’s last game in charge in our last visit to Shrewsbury. Cannot see MR seeing the same fate should we fall short again. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Robins feeling the pressure?

    With Hiwula I think he’s only there as it’s him or Shipley since the change from the initial 4231, on paper he’s pace and ability to bring the ball but he cannot cope with the defensive aspect of the game and gets caught endless times back to goal in our own half. JCH was a deal agreed in...

    Robins feeling the pressure?

    I think all choices could be classed as random if we don’t agree with the choice he’s made. It’s a funny game. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    JCH has always looked better running at goal not back to goal playing a new way. He’s looked far more comfortable coming in off the left running with the ball. I can hear many shouting like at Walsall where he missed.... yes! Like that, tho I’m not suggesting he’s prolific but he’s good value...

    Robins feeling the pressure?

    What do you feel he did and set out to break up? It’s clear by recruitment and the playing style in August he set out to play a 4231 hence the signings of Hiwula and Chaplin with Bakayoko to develop into this fluid style with the completion of the JCH deal. He left slim room to manoeuvre...

    Unsettling News

    They cannot just look for a new club and neither can they agree any pre contract terms for the 19/20 season. CCFC do not even need to say if they are offering terms till May. It’s nice to do deals soon but deals are only announced when agreed, never when a player rejects new terms. So maybe...

    Ratings v Luton

    His performances are not suggesting he’s doing that. The performances of him are saying he’s not comfortable in the role in the way we play so deep. The point was if I was him id be concerned by the lack of chance to play as a striker and slotted into a position out of lack of other options...

    The wide role really isn’t his position. It’s got to affect a players mood playing a role that’s not natural. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
