Will be interesting to see if Leo or Ross are risked from the start, but equally feel we have been flogging Larin a little over the past week so he is probably dead on his feet - I dont know if he is also in the squad for Canada vs Iceland?? Tough one to call really in terms of who to pick. Feel Bragg probably deserves a start as Jander was not great again last night. Downes is important for the spine and the tempo. Back four picks itself. Perhaps one for Fellows and Edozie to start to maximise creativity. If we cant turn them over at SMS though, we dont really deserve to be talking about promotion.

Yeah, Pack can only pass sideways right.

That Caballero guy the skates signed it's utter sh1te

Can we terminate Bezs loan just to help make sure Derby fall into place?

Wonder if Leo or Stewart will be fit

Is Larin injured?

Wrexham certainly have some tough matches there and can't see them winning them all. We just have to take care of our business, and beat them

Wrexham are shit, Swansea have pissed all over them thus far.

Totally agree. Edozie has a pedigree and a decent amount of experience....hes played prem football, and if he applies himself he could be really important. A great time for his career to slot in there and make an impact.

One of those nights. Draw a fair result as it was pretty much attack Vs a low block. Hope Leo and Ross are not out long...(Assume Ross injured?!?!)

Anyone know if it looked like a muscle thing or impact thing with Leo?

Are Jelert and Quarshie injured? Any other casualties?

Come on Blackburn

Salech from Cardiff - 6ft 5 and scores goals. Good age too.

Be careful about detail. Dragon is the money man and to be fair I don't think you can ask a lot more from an owner/Investor from a financial point of view. He's probably lost millions. Parsons and Rasmus however are clearly incompetent and need replacing with proven performers in their field and the required level.

...albeit Leo hasn't done a lot. Maybe Ross up top and Arma wide

Downes and Fellows have to score. Rose our luck but had better chances. Obviously will regret not taking them when Leo and Fellows come off and we get humped

Reckon unless Bournemouth got the Semenyo reinvestment spot on then they might be in a spot of bother. Their squad and bench looks very random.

Do think we need a keeper who can command his box, as Baz does not do that at all. However I'd be prioritising a physical number nine. Beyond that any decent manager has all the tools he requires in the squad at this level.

Bring in Maresca and 433

Agree with this. And id say the reason we don't win headers is again because we don't have two center backs and then the usual arrangements where the far full back tucks in to defend and the near fullback tries to stop the cross. It's simple but we're re writing what typical defenders have learned and played for years. It isn't easy to adapt when so much of defending is positional as a group. People don't know where to be and who's role/man is whose.

I think it's utter rubbish our CBs are so poor we need three of them. THB has been promoted out of this division twice playing in a back four. Stephens is easily championship quality and proved this when he went out on loan to Bournemouth. Putting them in a three makes them look worse as they aren't doing what they've learned for twenty years in terms of how a back four and CB pairing operate together and a unit

Robinson was our best player for the first half dozen or so games this season, so it's a bit harsh to criticise him IMHO. However yes dropping Leo is stupid unless he is physically not ready and able and managing minutes is that critical.

We need to get to a 433, What's the worst that can happen Simple back four, Jelert or Mads right back. Solid three from Jander, Charles, Azaz, Romeu, Downes, Bragg. Fellows and Leo wide with Robinson to come on. Also Edozie OR a new wide man if he is never going to play. Arma up top with Stewart and a new signing there too, Arma going wide if Leo and Fellows can't do 90. Can go to a 4231 with Azaz, Jander or Charles more advanced as required. Swap Downes for a proven 9 in January, maybe a new wide man, and we've then got all the tools we need.

I noticed the ball holding up with the amount of watering they had done before the game - seemed a bit much!
