Millers v Potters Tues 7:45 KO

A change of tactics required for this game as Stoke are pack hunters, they go forward as a pack and defend as a pack so for me we have to play the counter attack game with a change to 4132 and hit them on the break 352 will not cut it this time IMHO that is.

So do we change to accommodate their style of play or do we make them change to accommodate our style of play, or both?

Good question CAM but as Stoke seem to play the same way whoever they have played away this season I cannot see them changing and if that is the case then it would be stupid to stay with the 352 because it would cause them no threat and put us at a huge disadvantage. IMHO our best chance of the 3 points is to play on the counter and stil have a good few defenders to cope with their pack hunting system. 4132 would be my choice.

Yes I was thinking we might need to change tactics, probably one or two players as well
