I think a lot of people saying we should go to 4 at the back don't realise we're scoring so many goals because this formation allows us to have 2 up front and a playmaker in behind them. Plus we have two wing backs who can be attacking threats also.

If we went to 4 at the back, we wouldn't be able to play 2 up front, we'd have to have a lone striker. We started off playing 4-4-2 and we were outrun by Bolton and Forest in the first two games.

There's nothing wrong with the formation. I'm happy with it and I'm happy with the philosophy, we need a couple of transfer windows to get the right players in. Because for me, the centre halves (with exception to Dawson) don't cut it. And the two sitting midfielders need to be looked at also. Barry did ok last night, but he's not going to be around forever. I think Field is the natural long term solution there if we stick to this system..
