    First league home game I have missed for a while due to swollen knee. Reckon Posh will put 2 or 3 past us.

    Not good enough. You need to watch through the pain :-)

    You don’t need a gammy knee to do that!

  • First victory of the evening:

    There are more Charlton fans here than Posh fans ... just.

    Every little helps, and all that.

    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.

    Don’t tell them Pike ;o)

  • Assume we are playing 3-5-2. Can anyone watching confirm that?

  • Working in Switzerland at the mo so watching the match on iFollow at the moment - have to say the quality is good and the commentary is far better than I expected (even though it’s obviously from the Peterborough fans’ perspective).

    Cor, whose side are you on?

    Are you Karl Robinson in disguise?
    You'll be doing a pre-match video of our tactics next. :neutral:

    If opposition teams are coming on to a fan forum literally one minute before kick off to figure out how to break down a 3-5-2, a formation that is literally older than I am, then it's cool, we got them right where we want them.

    Where abouts?
  • Little Albie has made a lively start - some good passes and a couple of nicely-timed challenges.

    Certainly looks like it, Solly and Page wingbacks.
