    We only started attacking when formation changed at 60 mins so yeah 451 don’t work for us. Yeah we are leading goal scorers but you won’t keep like that by having 1 man up front

    Scoring 1 but letting in 2 gets you no points.

    We could be the top scoring side in world football but if we also let in more than we score then we’re going to fail.

    Remember in football you start with a point before a ball is kicked.

    We've got to play 4-5-1 cause of the players we've got in our squad. Midfield would get overrun. Ajayi is a liability. No right back. No winger if Williams is off his game. Keep saying it where's Bailey-King, along with Hinds & Wiles if your good enough your old enough.

    True, but they’re not good enough.

    The coaching of the reserves is as bad if not worse than the coaching of the first team.

    There is a plan B and a plan C. Warne went with a very bold formation at Donny and he did it again today. Two defenders off for a Striker and an attacking midfielder and Shrews went totally into their shell and couldn't get out of their half. We should have won it then but we huffed and puffed and weren't able to unlock the door. Very disappointing

    But....the reason we went Plan B and then C in the last two games is because we were already losing.
    The problem is that we always start the match with the plan A team selection and formation. Teams have worked us out and we're too predictable. It's crying out for D Ball or JCH and sacrificing a midfielder

    The second big problem that's coming home to roost is that the plan A formation and selection isn't playing the same way. Before it was a pressing, possession approach whereas now it's boot it up field and surrender possession.

    The annoying thing is that Keiffer is equally adept at close ball control on the ground as he is in the air so we don't actually need to hoof it to him. He's scored loads by shooting rather than heading

    Spot on flour, carry on regardless like this and we will fall down the league rapidly. No other team has blown us away but the poorer teams can still beat us with these tactics, and defence. Best form of defence keep em out of our half.

    Spot on! We'll win games, we'll lose games, we're pretty much doing how most of us expected to do this season. After last season we need to consolidate and then build. Sacking managers will just put us back to square one, again.

    Feels like we are at square 1 to be honest.
