    Trying not to criticise Bowyer before the game again but the chopping and changing doesn't bring stability. I was looking forward to Maatsen and Millar building a partnership down the left and now he's moved the latter up top.

    anxious about tonight. 

    Really could do without all the gloom associated with another Charlton disappointment

    If he doesn't play 433 I'll be pissed off. 

    If he thought it was good enough to beat As etc etc.  You can't chop and change formation every week.

    Serious question... should a manager just play the strongest lineup every time, when possible, rather than picking those he strategically thinks are the best lineup?

    Again, not trying to critical of bowyer.  But square pegs in round holes springs to mind again.

    Millar who was dangerous as a winger now a forward, which means we either have Smyth as a RM or a RWB, of which he is neither traditionally.  Gunter perhaps a CB.

    I can see this being frustrating, 1-0 at best, but 1-1 wouldn’t surprise me.

    I've got a good feeling about today. Think we're going to break out bad streak and have a good night. Cue loss.

    At this level, with the players we have available, I’d say yes unless there was something glaringly obvious about the opposition that would warrant a change. We’re not blessed with a squad like Man City unfortunately.

    Finally Williams starting 🙏
    Am surprised seeing that Bowyer wasnt impressed with his performance on Friday
    I bet Bowyer was surprised as he pulled the name from the hat

    Millar has played both positions for Liverpool under 23s

    No, I think you have to take your opposition into account. But the chopping and changing really doesn't help.

    I expect we’ll go 1-2-1-2-1-2 when Kettle gives someone their marching orders

    Anyone else think they need to slap the top of the TV?

    I think whatever plays these videos struggles with the quality. Not the first time it's happened with the pre-recorded stuff.

    Why can't football get streaming right... I really don't understand why it's so difficult in the year 2020.

    Yeah this line-up pleases me except for the fact that Gilbey will hide and give no support to Williams and the latter will cop the blame again. We don't really have anyone else to play there, I know, but he really is our weak link and what sympathy I do have for Bowyer mostly comes from the hitherto duffness of that signing

    I can think of a few players I'd slap first ...

    Praying for us to get an early goal. Can’t face falling behind again. Time for a big performance from Jonny.
