We had 29 shots against Luton playing 3-5-2. The formation can work if implemented correctly

Bit concerned Torp is going to be too static playing attacking midfield.

I know he had mixed reviews but i would have like Sakamoto in the 10 again where he can drift into the left and right channels to support and link up with the wing backs.

I know it was only as a sub but he was far more mobile and looking for pockets of space against Luton than I’ve noticed in the past.

Hearing King poisoned his lucozade after the aforementioned bust up

Club is rotten to the core

Yeah fair enough, in the right circumstances against the right team it’s very effective. My concern with Robins playing 5 at the back is that in the past he has tended to stick with it against any and every opponent rather than changing it up when needs be, i.e. against very defensive teams.

I'm really hoping Simms is injured or ill and not just dropped for BTA

Edit seen he isn't in the squad. Nice to have 2 keepers on the bench just in case.

So very nearly right

Simms had a club sandwich and got food poisoning.

So, yes, the club was indeed rotten to the core

Why on earth would you want us to play those players in 4-4-2?

Not you too? Shitting on a player who helped us up the leagues

Yet you get angry at anyone who has a go at robins for the same reasons?

Hmmm

Simms will be a big miss.
Would have preferred Bassette to BTA.

I admired his commitment and how far he took his limited ability. As footballer he was a bit rubbish though

Happy with the squad, shame simms is ill but will mean he’s fresh for Derby hopefully.

Great we now have the depth in that role (since we’re not playing two). Surprised Jacks in but shows Robins ambition to get something here.

Would love a win but think a draw which would take us to unbeaten in three would be a great form.
