    The football world would surely agree it’s a good idea to sack Robins. Especially when you account that after 12 games, we’re outside the relegation zone. 8 of our 12 games have been against top half teams all as a newly promoted team too.

    Not really, he was bottom for 4-5 months before turning it around. Things take time.

    Walker and Godden

    We played 2 striker in L2 and our first season in L1... Against Fleetwood, we switched to 5-3-2 that turned our season around - injuries forced us to adapt ‘the box’ formation’.

    Walker and Godden

    Yes. Robins said as much before the first game Godden and Biamou were paired together - Walker happened to be not fit.

    I’ve interpreted differently, and I’m open minded that I could be wrong. At best, it was a half chance so it’s not really worth a lengthy discussion. What I will say is this: in that scenario, how threatening was Biamou there? In my view, not very. Ironically, I like Biamou and want him to...

    The final pass wasn’t good, at all. My observation is just on the lack of movement. That’s my gripe with Biamou. The commentator pointed this out too. In those scenarios, we often see Godden either drop off the defender to go to the far post, or he’ll make an effort to get in front of the defender.

    As the commentator noted, Biamou was on the wrong side of the defender. In that specific scenario, Biamou failed to make any meaningful movement toward either post and the defender was able to come over and cut the pass out. His movement was pretty static and passive in that attacking phase.

    Where were both of these clubs at this point last season? Both teams turned it around in the 2nd half of the season and even Barnsley relied on Wigan going into administration.

    Hilßner may get a chance, MR have an injury update earlier this week and it seems that he’s still struggling a bit with his asthma. As for Jobello, he’s making a comeback from a bad injury - he’ll find a way back for him. I’m surprised we didn’t experiment with Giles as a wide player further up...

    I'm happy we got Walker in because now we have two good options to choose from. However, we probably need to explore bringing in a loanee in Jan - Baka looks to be bombed out and we cannot rely on Biamou taking his chances. Frankly, I don't think either are good enough at this moment. I had hope...

    In our 12 games, we’ve played most of the top 8. By all accounts, we’ve had a disproportionately difficult start. Today was a decent result considering our run, but we’ve got fixtures coming up that we need points from if we’re to for be ourselves a chance of survival.

    Summed up by the ‘opportunity’ where he didn’t think to get in front of the defender for Walker’s pass... He doesn’t really add anything to the team and it’s probably not unfair to say he’s way in over his head in the Championship. We’re in a dog fight and only Walker and Godden look the only...

    0-0 is a decent result and a valuable clean sheet. We looked better attacking when we went to 5-3-2, however, we also looked more open. Walker looked lively today, but that was the only real positive that stuck out for me. Few notes: - Dabo's touch was off - Kelly was loose in possession -...

    The difference in movement between Walker and Biamou is night and day. If we can get Gooden and Walker upfront together, we could cause some teams some issues.

    Too attacking for me.

    Defence

    The DaCosta suggestion could be a very decent option. A lot of teams utilise a traditional full back as part of a back 3. If pace was the fundamental issue, Pask would be worth considering. But, given his lack of game time so far, it’s a stretch. In fairness to the defence, our structure in...
