Burton Albion Post Match Thoughts

[gru]

I follow said it was tactical taking Barlaser off, I'm not sure. Need him. I keep saying playing Tutu on the left there's no cover then for whose playing on the left of the back 3. Harding is no left wing back he's a right sided defender who can play on the left of the back 3. Lindsay had a disappointing game. Ladapo may as well been sat with me. If Ferguson is injured only option I can see is move Chioe wide left. Can Odoffin play centre back? If he can play him there in place of Wood. Edmunds Green can definitely play right wing back. New side for Saturday

In the last 3 games it would really help if the players were both focussed and calm, especially so in the first and last 10 minutes of each half. Whoever grabs the Autos will have earned it - only Wigan look like one of them at the moment and even they are wobbling a bit

It's not looking good for Shane Ferguson, he left Burton with a protective boot on, sounds like a ' plantar facia issue' so don't expect him to play against Oxford.
Tutu took a knock to his ankle and he may or may not be fit for Saturday, assessment later in the week.
Odoffin can play Centre defensive midfield, Centre-Back and Right-Back. I doubt he will pick Odoffin or Kelly.

It won't make any difference what team he picks, they have to perform on the pitch.

What I've always thought Warney hasn't got it as a manager. Let's chairman dictate to him. Defence not been right all season. 2 goals last night we gave away was terrible defending. Up front only Smith good enough unless we see what Kelly can do. Ladapo & Kayode wouldn't even be on bench for me.

Defence not been right all season,,yet upon till last 2 away games we had only conceded 5 goals away from home.. which is a new English football league record.. and will take some beating in our life times .. but the defence hasn't be right all season

The problem with Odoffin is the total lack of game time he has had this season.Quite remarkable for the marquee signing of last summer.He will be as under cooked as the rest of the squad are over cooked.....except Kelly that is,who is still in the freezer!

Does he even exist? I keep seeing this tall bald headed athletic looking chap in shorts and a training top warming up with the first team but for whatever reason, he doesn’t even get included on the subs bench????

I think it was all about getting 'a project' on the cheap when we signed him and had nothing to do with using the January transfer window to bolster our squad for a promotion push.If we had wanted that we would have signed Stockton from Morecombe or Stockley from Charlton but they would have been far more expensive.Remember Kelly signed a 3 1/2 year deal but the 6 months added on was purely to grab him before the summer so no one else did. By the time next season kicks off ,Kelly will have gone nearly a year without ANY form of competitive action.It will be interesting to see how this 'project' works out and they obviously fancy their chances because of what they have done with Smith ,but with Kelly at just 25 and Smith at 31 they will hope to be on the right side of age this time to benefit from the fruits of their labour.

Have you noticed how many marquee signing don't get a proper run of games under warne and co? Odiffin, sadlier and Kelly. I still think warne isn't on board with some signings and so doesn't give them a real chance. No evidence to support it, just a feeling

Would you stay in a job for 6 years if the personnel you needed to do your job were being chosen by someone else? I wouldn't and I don't think PW would either.
