    3-4-2-1

    Finally got to see a bit of this formation last night and it worked really well. I know plenty on here (myself included) have been clamouring for Wilder to try it for some time now.

    It just makes way more sense when the players we have to pick from in the number 10 position are far better than what we have up top. And as you could see last night it frees up space for the centre forward weirdly enough, and I think it would suit either Leon or Billy. With only a few games to go lets try it and see if we can tactically bamboozle the remaining opposition managers in the run in.

    --------Clarke/Sharp-------

    Brooks/Holmes--------Duffy

    With our current squad and getting our more creative players in the starting 11 this is a must. I think what chance we have of the playoffs would be benefited greatly by this.

    Surely 3-4-2-1 is the best of both worlds? Defending with three from the front as we usually do at the mo, but going forward have more creativity up top.
