A lot of talented players on the pitch, but with Lokilo and Philogene out, it’s a very unbalanced team.
Sinik was set to play in the u21s game this week against Burnley but it was called off, Connolly, Docherty and a few others were due to take part as well.
People have said it a fair bit, but surely if you're going to play without wingers, it makes sense to play 3 at the back and have people in natural positions.
Some flexibility in LRs thinking when the players you have fit really don't suit or fit the system you normally play really would help. Let's see how we set up
Looks like a diamond with Seri at the base and Twine behind Tufan and Delap. Rosenior probably expects to dominate possession
We’ve played 3 at the back in possession all season. Rosenior has said many times he doesn’t like defending with a back 3/5 so doubt we’re ever going to see it
Why has Sinik travelled with the team if he’s not even on the bench. Thought he might get his chance today
I do think it’s a shame one of Allahyar/Vaughan/Sinik isn’t starting. Rosie clearly doesn’t think any of them are up to it yet. In that case we need more pacy forward players capable of playing wide to stand in for Jaden/Lokilo
