Okay, either 3-4-1-2 or 4-4-2 with MVE and Rudi wide.

Not sure either thrill me that much

I was saying I wanted to see us try 3-4-1-2 again now we’ve got some different players, and it looks like he’s done it. Will be interesting.

Was always going to happen with Bidwell out TBF. And Kitching playing like he’s bet his net worth on the opposition.

I think we can play 3-4-3 with the players we have as well. Have a central striker and then two of Rudoni, Mason-Clarke, Wright, Sakamoto playing just off/wide of the central striker

Strong bench too. Where does Broad play? (Not that he’ll get on)

Lati is probably at his least shit on the right of a back 3 and I'm looking forward to seeing Bassette but I'm clutching really. It's a formation that cannot got the best out of Wright, EMC or Sakamoto. That's a lot of money there...

Fair play to Robins for changing it up. Going to be interesting to see Simms and Norm together.

What is mental is last summer Robins and co recruited to play wing backs, and it didn't work so was changed to 4231

This summer, we recruit for 4231, it doesn't work so have reverted back to wing backs

That's a fuck up whatever way you look.at it. 2 seasons running

Let's hope our season changes at Preston like it did last year

Any team worth a wank should be able to play multiple systems, it would be mental if they couldn't

4-2-3-1 is plan a but it would be a "fuck up" not to have plan b's and c's.

I think that assumes you pick a formation first and a team second and I’m not sure that’s true. Form and circumstance determine who in your squad you need to fit in and in what shape.

The one positive change I see in terms of this year vs last year in the formation is Van Ewijk has started being a lot more forward-thinking in his general play. He didn’t really fit at wing back last year but think he’ll suit it a lot more now.

Weird that Dovin and Bassette are both in the side when some of the geniuses on here were insisting they’d been bombed out and / or fallen out with Robins

As always I think it’ll depend on if we end up with a flat back five with three DMs on their toes or a proper 3412. Need Dasilva and MvE on the front foot IMO.
