Disagree. He’s won a fair amount in the air and infinitely more than Walker did the other night. He needs to close down better though. I suspect he’s there so Wilson has an out.

Hes actually won almost everything in the air, a flick on down the line and a few knockdown... For me he needs to push himself into the spaces to get on the end of crosses... He doesn't do it enough for a big lad

I don't think he's an awful player, but seems to struggle physically at this level and he is not quick at all. Whenever he receives the ball you just know he's going to end up getting tackled, done for pace, easily pushed off it etc.

You’ve just pretty much described an awful player lol no shock Burton fans were not arsed when we signed him

Because the 3 CB's aren't good enough to play in a 3 at this level
Click to expand...

Then we need better CBs. We have 3 good WBs, 3/4 good CMs and two good STs. Not playing 532 is just nuts. If the budget is at all there I’d go all out for a decent CB in Jan.

When every thing goes through the WBs and we get the ball out wide so often, 2 tiny, hardworking AMs are an utter waste. Get 2 strikers in the box and get Sheaf and Hamer arriving at the edge of the box.
No idea what Robins plan is to win that game again. It's fine trying to get to half time at 0-0 in games but you gotta have that plan B ready as soon as you concede because teams will score first half goals against us throughout the season.

Allen is not able to cut it in the Champ. He’s a good L1 player no doubt but not in this league. Gets bullied off the ball, can’t do anything useful with it when he gets it.

Allen, Baka, Kasta all need to be shipped out in the Jan window and replaced with better.

Hope he doesn't get crocked, as this ref has already let a couple of cheap shots on him go. Need this revitalised Dabo for the next few games. Really need to utilise the squad. Wouldn't mind young Bapaga instead of Allen, as he'd run rings round Hanley.

He'd do a Nickesque reducer on him straight away

I think he's decent on the ball and can pick a pass and can shoot. Just unfortunately doesn't get a chance to do any of those things at the moment

For that pen it’s pathetic how the Norwich player rolls around holding his knee like he’s been shot then has a quick look at the ref to confirm it’s been given

Resting players for ‘more important’ game on Tuesday. I’ll remember that when Derby beat us.

Just saw the keeper coach talking into a microphone to somebody.

Surely it's not Wilson?

apart from his header from a free kick which the keeper fumbled he's been nowhere near some really good deliveries. Most strikers would be busting a gut to get onto the end of some of the crosses Dabo's put in.

I think he wants McFadz in for his experience, but his lack of pace is costing us at Champ level so the shift to 4 at the back happened. If you can get a more experienced quicker CB in January then maybe.

These replays are pissing me off. Just show the fucking game.

EDIT: the long still shots of people watching the game are pissing me off too.

We need another striker if we are looking to working it wide and crossing don’t get why we do this...

Yep. Willing to put the effort in apart from where you expect a striker to do it - in the area.

Wish I understood replies like this. What works? Getting the ball honestly and being told he’s fouled the player?

Bigger picture though. Do I prefer the way we play with 3 CB's? Yes. Do i think we'll do better with a back 4? Yes. It's about the points on the board.
