Fuck it. Sick of being so cautious. Stuck Ayari in the 8 role. Palmer or Saka at AM depending on fitness, Simms and Wright up front.

Mark Robins play one minute of football without Matty Godden on the pitch challenge.

But now we’ve got the losing the best two players in the league debacle. It was always going to take time to rebuild.

Completely agree, I think we’ve been too cautious in our games, yes it’s good to be balanced and to not go out all guns blazing but there’s only so many sidewards passes I can take in a match I want to see positive passing and through balls being zipped into Wright and Ayari. We lose the ball in midfield anyway so we might as well lose it trying to be creative

midfield of Palmer - Eccles and Ayari would be far too lightweight defensively.

Eccles will have his work cut out.

If we start with a midfield of 3 from Eccles/Ayari/Palmer/Sakamoto then the game’s ending 4-0, not sure to which team though.

Well I’m going 3 summit as I’m putting a tenner on a wright hatrick every game this season. It’s been a long time coming a hatrick in sky blue! As a poker player I play the law of averages and probability. Knowing my luck it will be Simms or Godden that get it this season .

Would take a point as long as we follow it up with a win against Huddersfield (just hoping their new manager bounce doesn’t kick in too early).

There is definitely a time to protect the lead but it frustrates me when we score and immediately let the opposition recover

Personally I prefer the 2213111 formation myself, it’s a little different but I think two goalies brings something to the table that teams won’t expect…

Cardiff manager has apparently said they’ve got some injuries and expects 2 or 3 changes from the team that beat Swansea.

So ‘IF‘ we lose we will be 4pts better off than the team who eventually finished 5th in the league and missed out on promotion by a single missed penalty

He did say he wanted to try something different & we're not going to score goals with Kelly in the middle. So I wanted to offer something out the box!
