Having watched with disappointment yesterday I really think our current formation is not utilising our players.
Charlton looked ordinary 2 but played two lumps up top in Magennis and Novak and two wingers in Lookman and Holmes. To me they always looked threatening with this formation and we never really looked like scoring.
With current formation three in the centre all looked tiday and did ok tbh but all are too similar and none of the three drive forward with the ball or get forward enough in general.....at least one of them needed too!
If we persist with this formation full backs have to try to get behing defence and take risks......neither sterry or page did this probably Lameiras only one who tried to beat a man and get cross in.
Personally would switch to 4-4-2. (my first choices for postiions below come first - not included players still injured).
GK: RCC/Burge
RB: Sperry/Ricketts
LB: Page/Haynes
CB: Willis/Harries/Turnbull
CM: Bigi/McCann/Stevenson
RW: Lamerias/Jones
LW: Reid
CF: Ageyi/Sordell/Tudguy/Reid
