Seriously. This isn't a troll. But anyone saying 352 can't work is quite simply WRONG and I hope they admit it now

It's done wonders for us and continues to do so

Robins sold Wolves a dummy. Their bench was literally scrambling when they realised we were 4 atb.

Probably why it’s a good thing not to leak the team news for internet cred earlier in the week!

MVE was very good, the formation gave the Dogs problems all match.
Thoroughly deserved!

4411 without the ball, combined with a generally good press, 433 with it.
Broke with pace and looked a threat throughout.
A MR tactical masterclass today, I imagine everyone thought a back 3/wing backs and fairly deep set. But oh no!! Had GON scratching his head for the first 25 minutes.

I don’t want to repeat a cliche, but on past evidence CoH and KP struggle to play together - they kind of cancel each other out.

shame as they should be really effective..

It was mostly 4-2-3-1 but we slipped into 3-4-1-2 defensively - Robins deserves all the plaudits for the tactical flexibility.

When their keeper went down with a supposed thigh injury, O'Neill who had been frantically working on his ipad called his players over and issued instructions. The keeper made a miraculous recovery.

Today against Wolves it was fluid a sort of 4-3-3 when in possession going forward.

But without the ball it was more 4-4-2 or
even 4-4-1-1 at times

That is great progress to have that in game flexibility.
