Should start vs Oxford.

They cant be any worse!

Thomas and Kitching are a car crash.

Grimes in front is offerring no cover..and going forward is lost.

Neither are playing well at the moment but I would stick with Thomas. I would definitely bring in Woolfenden for Kitching though, and away from home consider adding Lati into a back 5.

Lati and Wolf at the back, KKH if he's fit instead of Milan and Eccles a bit deeper instead of Grimes.

God knows why we've spent all that money on Wolf to never player him when we can't stop letting the opposition walk straight through our defence.

Yeah giving him a rest was my thought with this one. Been a few occasions where he's looked a bit leggy.

Grimes has been off it for at least 5 weeks , I think he’s a great player but he needs a rest .

Kone was a beast...owned Kitching and Thomas.

What centre forward.

But for Rushworth this would have been 3 goals conceded.

Latibeaudiere was better in his two games vs Leicester and Millwall than Thomas or Kitching have been in months. His passing may be a bit suspect but at least he’s not making glaring errors every game.

I agree and I never thought I would say this but Latibeaudiere has to come back into the side for Kitching. May as well give Woolfenden a go a head of Thomas.

6 signings or loans of outfield players. Not 1 in the starting 11. Poor recruitment

And yet he hasn't scored in something like 17 league games.

I would be surprised if Kitch and Thomas start the next game.

One of them will be dropped (or 'rested') and you have to imagine it will be Kitching.

Okay here’s my crazy post and then I’m off.

Why not try Kitching as the leftback. Idea being he could tuck in with possession to form a back three.

Thomas - Woolfenden- Kitching.

This would mean defensively we would be less than vulnerable to counters as we are currently as our back four becomes a back two.

Furthermore it would force Grimes higher up the pitch and allow space for Rudoni to drift wide the left channel to under/overlap with EMC

In essence changing the 3-1-6 to a 3-2-5?

Some may laugh..but i wont. As this cant be worse from what we are witnessing right now...but we just signed 10 wingers!

3 at the back in formation away feom home not a bad idea.

Classic panic signing when Hughes wouldn't come.

Playing Kitching left back is only the 2nd maddest thing about your suggested team, After his performance Monday, starting Torp is the first.

Thomas has been a disgrace since he let the side down at Birmingham. Kitching helped throw points away twice in a week.

The issue is Lati’s so painfully slow he has to be in a 5 realistically.

Wolf must really be stinking the place out if he can’t get in the team after the horror shows of late. I’d be banging the managers door down asking why. Similarly Bidwell-DaSilva has had his 12-15 game purple patch and has now reverted back to type.
“But he’s tidy on the ball and good going forward”. Is he really? Can someone please tell me apart from Boro away when he actually put in a decent cross/assist? At least for all his limitations Bidwell can sometimes defend.

Agree with this. The sentiment was that oh he will be great cause he played for a team that got promoted and played something like 11 games in the Prem LOL. Which as I said at the time that’s like us getting promoted and expecting £4m for JDS cause he played for a promotion winning team and played a few games if we went up… doesn’t mean he’s good or worth £4m cause of that
