the performative nonsense we get every match day

as you said it is a very good team and should be more than strong enough

No one is being performative David. People are just debating the lineup

That’s a decent side, enough to win tonight and saving a couple for Tuesday, great management

Far too much bedwetting here.

Saw that cuck Sheaf was in the line up and tried to put a bet on, but bet365 don't allow score predictions above 6 goals for some reason.

We'll smash them.

They do allow it.

nah, all they will be doing is either hoofing it long or trying to pick up 2nd balls around the area

wrexham aren't going to be doing much playing through the middle

I watched the game against Cardiff and they done a lot of playing out from the back.

We’ll either blow them away with the front 4 or we’re in for a very tricky night I think.

People really underestimating the impact changing 3 out of 5 in a winning defence could have.

We have Kabore who is rapid up against Bidwell.

Woolfie had a great opportunity to make the shirt his own tonight. Thomas is normally our all action CB and with the direct football Wrexham play he’ll need to perform that role well.

Dasilva obviously left out with an eye on the next couple of games and with Wrexham’s tactics in mind. I bet Parkinson is shitting it now as he’s trained them all week to go long over the short guy.

Our attack should have way too much for their defence so if our backline can do a decent job we win.

JDS has been sick, although he is on the bench. Lets hope Bobby is sick too and it's not another injury.

once again, before anyone gets worried take a look at their back 3 and then our attack

Two of those are enforced, the third may be as well. Not much that could be done about it, MVE picked up two ridiculous bookings already which if he doesn't get, he plays tonight.

3 changes to the back 4 is a concern, but we still should have more than enough to beat them.

Even if our defence is not as solid as usual, which I don't think it will be, we'll surely score at least a couple the way our attack is at the moment.

Defence is built on continuity. It is more than the sum of its parts.

It is. But MVE suspended and Thomas not 100% fit. That's what we signed KKH and Woolfenden for. Very able replacements.

KKH looks a really good player anyway and I think he's even quicker than MVE.

Wasn't that long ago we were playing Lati there

I would be happy with that despite the amazing run we have been on

So we play on the front foot and push him backwards and if he does go to far forward he leaves loads of space for EMC, BTA, Saka and Wright to get at their ropey back 3.

Their keeper is atrocious too. I really just can't see anything other than a comfortable win.

So 3 enforced changes.
Not a lot can be done in the circumstances, we still look strong.

then we do what we have done all season against teams that try and press us high, we go over them and then once again we are at their ropey back 3.
