    At this point I’m convinced you’re a troll 😂😂😂 we’re 2 points clear of 7th. We’ll still be in the play off places after Burnley beat Bristol. We’ll comfortably be within 3 points after next week. There are probably 3 teams better than us - and we’ve played them all as of next week. fucking...

    Just had this through the door

    I remember them giving Jorge Grant abuse all game when we beat Notts County 3-0 first game of the league two season… end of the game Grant stuck 2 fingers up at them and one of them started kicking off shouting “he swore at me” proper toddler like sat in the legends lounge dressed like that as...

    Would definitely take a point here. They’re masters of grinding results out, and we struggle against the bully and grind teams.

    I find Wright does that now and then. He has an absolute shocker out of nowhere, then on the next game he’s completely unplayable. just got to accept that he’s got both in his locker and can either Wright can turn up at any given moment. interestingly though - his goal to game ratio is near...

    Rigg and Bellingham are class. They’ll both be in the premier league next season.

    L they have. But we were horrendous Tuesday night. However the reaction we got today was tremendous. Lampard got it right today

    Goes to show what a let down Tuesday night was - we’d only be 7 points off these if we dispatched Derby.. I’d have fancied us to overthrow that

    It’s not panic. It’s more looking over the 11 games, we’re more open with the 4-3-3 than we were with 3-5-2. we didn’t look like scoring last night, which happens. If you don’t - you need to try and not concede, with 4-3-3 we’ve been conceding for fun

    Possibly Torp? I think we’re gonna have to revert to the flat 3-5-2. It wasn’t pretty but we stopped leaking goals, and given our next 3 games this is an urgency

    We were scoring goals and not conceding with at the back. Someone put a graph up earlier that suggests that we’re creating less and it coincides with the change in formation. Sakamoto has played in the 3-4-2-1. EMC can still play that role. They need to adapt

    No it doesn’t - it’s a team sport. I’m not saying there isn’t a role for them. But you play the side that is best equipped to not concede. we’re currently in a position where we have to score 2 just to get a draw. we were the same earlier in the season when we had 4 at the back. it’s a...

    I mean we’ve conceded 6 goals in our last 3 games, whereas all 4 clean sheets kept in the last 11 league games were a variation of 3-5-2 or 3-4-2-1. the clean sheets were against Blackburn, Bristol, QPR who are all around us and Swansea. whilst the last 3 games have been against Oxford, Stoke...

    We may have too - we’ve been at our most solid when playing 3CBs and 2 up top accommodating them has led to a formation that is making us leak goals for fun. Conceding 2 a game is not sustainable

    We played 3-4-2-1 against QPR and kept a clean sheet, or like the Swansea game you go 5-3-2 you go flat 3 across the midfield - Eccles/Torp/Grimes. it may be time to revisit Simms and BTA - BTA may be shit but he did a lot of the donkey work that made Simms more effective

    Not necessarily - it kind of operates as a 3-4–3/ 5-4-1 hybrid. alternatively you could play Eccles/Torp/Grimes, then go Wright and Simms up top. It loses the support between ST and Midfield but it’s a much more solid middle of the park

    We do tend to have one of these moments every season. Remember that Lincoln game aswell where they beat us 4-2 at the CBS, right bizarre game where that Rhead caused us havoc

    Interesting that - do we know roughly where we switched to 4 at the back. I’d definitely argue we were playing 5 at the back when it peaked on that graph
