    Well, at least he’s wielded the axe where necessary. DJ and Kirk not even in the squad.  Just remains to be seen whether a team of strangers can gel.  Not holding my breath.

    DJ and Kirk were poor and lazy last week, them’s the breaks, this is deffo worth a try. 
    50p on “papasquare” scoring (our consolation goal)

    Looks like a 3-4-3 to me.

    —Lavelle - Pearce - Famewo
    Gunter - Dobson - Arter - Souare
    —Leko - Stockley - Washington
  • And Stockley relieved of the captaincy.

    Cap'n Pearce is back.


  • Owch....DJ and Kirk couldn't make the bench ahead of somebody on a 3 month contract! Wake up time.
  • Don’t hate this XI but seems very defensive with effectively 7 outfield players with that mentality.  But something had to change and he’s done that.

  • 3-4-3?  I actually kinda like that team. I think Lavelle will benefit more from having Pearce in there. Washington-Stockley-Leko definitely has goals in it. 

  • With the back 3, we can see that Pearcey is only risked with a bodyguard either side! :smile:

    343 …. Not defensive at all .. 
  • Glad to see Dobson back and I like the front three (desperately trying to stay optimistic!)

    The thing with having a base of Lavelle, Pearce, Famewo, Dobson and Arter is that it will allow Gunter and Souare to do what they’re good at which is get forward and put crosses in. Hopefully less defensive responsibility will mask some of Gunter’s shortcomings…

    I would hope those two will be more attacking than the display we’ve seen coming out of full back from the first half a dozen matches…
  • Washington to score must be the safest bet of the day

    Thumbs up from me. Good options off the bench.
    Resumption of last season's table-topping away form.
    COYA
  • Another roll of the dice. Unless Souare is quick it will take half an hour for that midfield to get the ball up to the forwards. Expect defend, defend ,defend then hoofball.
  • Fancy Souare to nut one in at the back stick. Not sure why.

    Or Pearce to give away a penalty ;)
  • If it's better than last week (which wouldn't be difficult) then I'll be happy.

    eh?  The four are two full backs and two DMs lol
  • Can’t be any worse than last week (I hope)!
  • looks more like a 4-3-3 to me…

    Hopefully the team shape will be more compact.

    And there's pace in the side to exploit the counter.

    Here we go, looking forward to the pre match chat and memories with Scott and Morts, and Bob Bolder standing in for Curbs, and an interview with Leko  B)
  • We reek of a team that still doesn’t know it’s best formation or lineup 
    Yet all the recruitment pointed to 433/4231. What was wrong the recruitment or the formation? Chicken and egg isn't it?  
  • Had to drop players after last week and worrh trying a new system.

    Got to find something that shows signs of working so we don’t end up switching system and players every game like Bowyer did last season.
