Dobson going to be a good signing for us this season I think
I wasn’t massively enthused when we signed him, but he’s impressed me over the pre-season. Think the battle between him, Clare and Gilbey will be really interesting as I think max two of them can make the starting XI (unless we push Clare further forward if Albie doesn’t make the cut).
Always said he was a poor signing. We need a massive overhaul in the middle of the park if we want anything from this season.
What’s that based on? And how does one mistake in a friendly against a team from a higher league prove you were correct?
I assume you have not read all my other posts in various threads, including this one on the last page, where I mention how excited I am with the signing of Clare.
I guess if not I should start doing a disclaimer every post I make which is a joke/parody.
Fair enough, I most likely have but can’t remember who rated him and who hasn’t.
Not a bad half for us but disappointing to go behind playing a high line when you can’t afford to be on your heels for a through ball or fail to pick up a runner. Should’ve been 2-0 in front before that with good chances for Morgan and Clare spurned. Washington has also been wasteful with his decision making in good attacking areas.
Decent first half, defended well overall, but class of Fulham showing in build up play, but so far so good, can see us getting back in this second half.
Could we put Morgan out there with Jaiyesimi on the right & Stockley + Washington through the middle?
Adkins wants his 4-3-3. We need to sign a wide forward as a priority
Sticking rigidly to a formation rather than letting the players you have dictate how you set up gives me Karl Robinson vibes.
Every promotion season has had a main formation, having that and style of play is a must.
The test is if and how Adkins changes things if it’s not working. He only lost one league game with us last season so there hasn’t been a reason to change it yet. I hope he won’t stick with it like Robinson if we go on a bad run.

We need a LW, LB and some depth really.
