Ooh tasty. I love that back four.

The struggle is getting Macca and Jatta in the same line-up. I'd probably start the season with Nemane on the right, Crowley in the middle, Macca up top, and Jatta on the bench, but it does feel like a waste.

Regardless, I expect Maynard to persist with the 3-4-2-1 formation, with two 'wing backs' who can't/won't defend.

I think we can’t go in to this season playing one way. Our away form was fairly poor and I’d suggest a more pragmatic approach, where maybe a back 4 is implemented.

I would love to see that. I thought we were fantastic away at Newport when we played a back four. That was probably the best performance under Maynard. Happy to go more attacking at home against certain team, but having that solid base of a back four with two full-backs who know how to defend is a great option away.

You know me, I link the very attacking, entertaining football with the 11-12,000 through the gate. I want to see more of that, not to set up worrying about the other team.

I think Maynard was more willing to change formation than Williams... probably too willing at times.

Yes, but what idiot would play both Nemane and Jones on the same wing...

LOL, maybe to confuse the opposition.
