First one in 9 games.

But does that now mean Lati and Woolf are our CBs? They literally had nothing to do.

Do you trust them against Boro?

Yes, I know Lati isn't quick but his mentality is very good. Wolf deserves another start as well.

It wasn’t easy to judge based on the opposition and our domination of possession. I thought they looked fine yesterday and didn’t give the ball away as much as BT and LK but I do think Thomas in the opposition box gives us another dimension.
I think the result against Boro will be more down to our being a threat in front of goal. We scored some crackers at their place.

They both did well but I'd like to go back to Thomas and kitching still I think.

I hope he was just sending them a message, saying buck your ideas up because I have alternatives.
Try and get them focused , and playing like they did when they thought Wolfendon was here to replace one of them.

Would have Lats over Kitching if were expecting to be on the defensive. Thomas we need as he’s the only player who even tries to win headers in their box.

I think frank will go for a 3 at the back against boro with lati missing out and kitch and thomas back in. Grimes and onyeka to hold that midfield down

Nothing to do, so I’m confused how Woolfenden has been judged as awful. They’d be going from being up against the poorest, least attacking team we’ll see all season to one of the very best next Monday. Not sure I’d keep them in. But Thomas and Kitching absolutely have to be better than they have been. MvE another one who has to be doing better. There’s no way KKH is that bad that we can’t drop MvE.

They didn't have anything to do, you have to factor that in. However, in so many games, the opposition score because we make a catastrophic mistake, not because they were busy anyway.

I'm not opposed to the two yesterday keeping the shirt, for now.

Sometimes you post some really really weird / out there opinions.

Lati and Thomas for me. Would like the pace of KKH AND MVE alongside them to cover what Lati lacks, but does read the game well.

Oxford didn’t do anything so we weren’t tested.

Different ball game against Boro. Woolf is our weakest CB.

Potentially Thomas and Lati against Boro.

We certainly were not tested, but to suggest Woolfenden was “awful” is definitely a bizzare take away from that game.

Whether he is our weakest CB is defo up for debate though.

No idea, Thomas and Kitch are hot heads. Let their emotions rule their actions, you might want them in a scrap but not when it calls for calm and clear heads.

That said would be a huge call to play Lati and Woolf for one of the biggest matches in recent history when they have been on the bench for most of the season

He played then onside in the first half at least 3 times including the big chance they had. Hes slow and pondorous on the ball

The one and only decent chance they had yes. Also, he’s barely played, let alone in this defence so I think forgivable.

I do agree he was a detriment to our build play at times though.

Still think awful is a stretch - similar to your criticisms of Esse, who definitely did have a poor game / was awful, but he has been decent in others.

That could be said for a few others.

Dunno about the slow and ponderous but definitely played them onside.

I thought after the sending off Thomas might’ve come on for Lati.
He didn’t.

I didn’t say he was awful in the game. He’s the weakest CB out of the 4.
