If I were Peterborough I'd just overload on the flanks, especially on the left against Solly. We saw it with Shrewsbury's goal, it sounds like Stanley used it to good effect on Saturday. I just don't think Solly is up to it as a wingback, and looked as good as I can think of him playing in the last couple years on the right of a back three in the last couple games. But Croatia against England was the perfect template for how to break down a 5-3-2.
This team does give Bowyer the ability to go to a 4-4-2 diamond in midfield, Bielik holding, Aribo and Pratley in the shuttling roles and Morgan as the 10. I do like the diamond the only problem is its weakness, namely that it can be very narrow, is similar to that of the 5-3-2.
I'm not expecting anything today. Don't think Boro are as good as Wigan or Blackburn were last year but they still look a strong outfit with a good if not wholly obnoxious manager.
We are going to have to significantly improve from Saturday's poor showing if we're to avoid a smashing tonight.
He's on the bench .... so perhaps Bow is thinking to use Morgan now, then bring on Lapslie for the last 30 mins - and use his hard running when Posh are tiring?

Hope I’m wrong. COYRs!
Saved me from having to decipher the numerical puzzle of our team sheet.

Are you Karl Robinson in disguise?
You'll be doing a pre-match video of our tactics next.
Come on you, Addicks! #cafc
