    Yeah my thoughts too. Why I think we should change shape to a 3 at the back if Milan can’t start.

    When was the last time he started as a RWB? Was it Leicester away last year?

    Would say in his defence, BTA is not a winger. If we are bringing him on it should be because we are changing shape and putting on two strikers. Should of been Paterson or Wright

    Working on the assumption that MVE and EMC need a break at the very least. Is harsh as pushes Sakamoto out but don’t think he could play any of the positions in the formation and feel without Milan I’m not overly comfortable with a fullback. Eccles did well here before so feel he could play...

    Ally McCoist backs English Premier League legend to be next Rangers manager

    To be fair he’s worded that as he wanted them to go for Lampard when he was available. Not that he thinks they should go for him now unless I’ve miss read. Think we’ve got to get used to this, hopefully he’s got a good sized release clause in his contract like the Wednesday boss does

    Looked to be a 4-5-1 defence shape but could be wrong. Think the gap between the two midfielders and grimes could be an issue especially with Grimes sitting into the back two creating a back three. Think could be something in pulling our press back a bit and compacting the distance between the...

    Thought he was decent as well. Would be a good target.

    Don’t actually mind this but would insist on Grimes over Allen and moving Sheaf onto the left hand side. Sakamoto missing out is unfortunate but he struggles in a wingback position.

    Ellis simms

    I think it’s more than there a different roles for a CF. Playing as a target man who is to occupy space and bring people in isn’t the same as how Wright would want to play imo

    Ellis simms

    Just to add, with him occupying space and CBs it means people become unmarked like yesterday as per the post or Rudoni at Oxford

    Ellis simms

    Maybe but think being out for so long will make him rusty as well

    Ellis simms

    From what I heard from the Preston camp they thought they couldn’t handle Simms that game, so much so Gibson went off so Lindsay could try. He might not always be scoring but his work off the ball and his work to bring people into the play is terrific atm

    Point countdown

    Think EMC should be fine for Tuesday (think this was said on the CWR) and unsure on Milan as seemed fine at full time

    Hopefully teething problems with the new formation what can get worked out or next time we bring on a CB and go back to the 5-3-2 when we are winning games

    I disagree I think we’ve controlled games decently well outside the last two and Wednesday and got what we deserved. Not saying it’s perfect as feel the loss of one centre back has made us less comfortable but football is a game of opinions. Let’s just enjoy the run can’t last forever

    With respect in this league you don’t win 9 in ten without being decent. In regards to luck, we didn’t get a clear stonewall penalty and an offside equaliser was allowed. Seems to me luck was against us today and we made our own

    Saka looked to hold more width today which meant MVE played more inwards, which did good for both of them. Good to see MVE celebrating with Bobby at the end, hopefully able to go for Derby

    Interesting to see Sakamoto being wider again today with MVE inverting inwards today. Looks back to his best atm

    Imagine we would move on Binks and Lati and sign one premiership experienced CB and another talent.
