It really was a ludicrous decision on the face of it. Surely you play him in the Millwall game when we won't be doing much defending? And a few of the other players for that matter.

Yep. I don't like 3 at the back normally but if you're weak at full back and in midfield then it does have it's advantages. We obviously aren't used to playing it under Martin but I'm sure it would've made us more solid than we were.

Under any other manager Meghoma would've been given a chance in the league but Manning is Russell's best mate. Meghoma has put in 3 very good performances this season, that's 3 more than Manning has..

Id be surprised if the Ipswich game isn't moved for TV

Charles passing is very iffy but his positioning is a lot better than Smallbone. Charles actually looked better at right back against Watford in the cup.

I was absolutely fuming after we somehow conceded two injury time goals and surrendered that 2-0 lead to Middlesborough at St Mary's in 2004. Took me weeks to recover from that one.

Don't think I've ever seen Smallbone turn and play a forward pass tbh

I'll be amazed if he leaves AA out but it needs to happen IMO. He either needs a rest or a kick up the ass because he's been so poor for a month or so. The next 4 games are huge because of the run we have after them. We simply have to get 12 points really.

Look at the Leeds line ups. They basically play the same team every game, whether that's Saturday-Tuesday or Saturday-Saturday. Farke knows his best line up. All this chopping and changing clearly isn't doing us any favours.

The majority of sides that go up who try and play like this tend to struggle. I don't see why we'd be any different sadly.

Brooks could be good in the 10, he's got a real eye for a pass.

Yeah, he's perfectly fine when you've got Downes behind him but I still think Aribo is the better player overall.

I've said it time and again but Smallbone as the CDM is just a complete disaster. We've now conceded 8 goals in 3 games with him in that position. How can Martin not see this?

To be fair we were 6 points ahead of Leeds at the start of the year. We are now 2 behind and all the momentum is with them. Badly need a Leicester win on Friday now.

He was improving to be fair, but he seriously struggles against the more physical players. His game is definitely more suited to coming off the bench against tired opposition.

Bazunu; KWP, THB, Bednarek, Bree; Downes, Aribo, Stu, Brooks, Fraser, Adams. This is the line up id like to see going forwards.

The big problem today was when we tried to beat the press by going slightly longer we only had Mara to aim for and he was absolutely hopeless at keeping the ball. Totally different with Adams on the pitch.

Indeed but it also doesn't have tonight's result. I wouldn't fancy us in the play offs.

This says it all. Our results against the top half sides is what will cost us automatic promotion.

Martins gotta hold his hand up there. Utterly baffling set up in the first half.

This second half has shown that if fit then Adams starts over Mara every day of the week

Martin has had an absolute shocker tonight. Really poor selection. We all knew that midfield would get overrun. The Mara experiment should end there. Couldn't trap a bag of cement in that first half. Don't get me started of Adam Armstrong, Joe Rothwell and Ryan Manning..

7:50? Are we planning on blinding the Hull players after 5 minutes?

Leicester win or a draw isn't the worst result.

Bazunu; KWP, THB, Bednarek, Bree; Downes, Aribo, S.Armstrong; Brooks, Fraser, Adams/Mara. Lumley, Stephens, Manning, Smallbone, Rothwell, Edozie, Arma, Sulemena, Adams/Mara.
