It’s why I think especially with MvE out we should go to a back four, then 4222 433 4231 all options. I honestly think the way to get the best out of our assets will be something like Wright down one wing and Saka down the other with Godden/Simms in the middle. Maybe 4231 so you can fit Ayari...

The solution is to not play a two man central midfield with wingbacks. We’ve not got the players for it.

Same happened to me during Covid. Told the doctor I was asthmatic, had an inhaler since I was a kid but had rarely used it as an adult. Thought I’d better get checked with the pandemic. Was told I don’t have asthma any more!

Points don’t matter really at this stage. We need a performance though. We need to start seeing this team click and progress. A little less deer in the headlights and a little more cock and balls.

Don’t know who Clarkson is but the others were only after Hamer left afaik. Even if he hadn’t gone he could have got injured day one and we’d be in the same place. We saw all last season the impact not having a replacement has on our play.

We had loads of time to sign a midfielder. The fact Robins thought Eccles and Kelly were good enough backup is on him.

Reading comprehension really is the curse of our times.

It’s not enough. Being able to play with such a huge gap and with only three attacking players was a gift because we had a one man strike force and a one man midfield. We just can’t do that now. We have to play more attack minded players, at least the standard four. Robins needs to let go of...

Do you have any siblings?

Good players really wind certain people up don’t they?

👏 excellent phrasing. Almost always self medication.

And some people were comparing Wright to him! Sorry Baka.

We need to accept we don’t current have the personnel for three at the back IMO. Or rather for two in midfield.

Saying what?

Why do you think in 7 games not even a goals worth of chances have fell to anyone else? No one is advocating dropping him now. He’s clearly scoring. But I think there’s evidence that’s hiding a bigger issue with our team.

Just to trigger Evo some more: Godden hasn’t even hit his xG this season, so even on his own terms isn’t performing particularly brilliantly. When Godden plays the whole team is set up to get him chances, everyone else plays in service to that. Wright and Simms don’t have an xG of 2 between...

All robins said was Saka is an attacking player and Lats should have come across. People acting like he’s said Saka will never darken his door again. I do wonder how some of you manage feedback at work 🤣

My concern with Godden is he distorts the team and doesn’t contribute outside his goals. I think him playing is hindering Simms settling into the team and by proxy Wright as well. I honestly think we’ll be a better team without him and having him as a sticking plaster at the moment is stopping...

You’re so cool.

Just watched season 1 of Schmigadoon on Apple TV+ and I’m secure enough in my masculinity to say I enjoyed it a lot.
