    In fairness, Sulemana was good last time out, even if it was weak opposition.

    But yeah, what is it about our recent managers and picking odd teams? 3 full backs, no 'proper' striker and Aribo in central midfield. <confused>

    Mad isn’t it? Surely one of the benefits of a back 3/5 is that the wing back has 3 CB’s to help defend rather than 2? So defensive frailties of a fullback should be less of a concern

    Same tactics as the game against Swans. Shame it’s Martinez and Yoro rather than Maguire as it negates get Kamaldeen pace a bit, but let’s see. Expecting nothing, but hoping for a surprise.

    I thought we left a few big holes in the midfield against Swansea.
    Hope they noticed on the video or Fernandes (Bruno) could have a field day.

    One of the other teams must have messed up really badly that season for that to happen

    Midfield getting over run as predicted, that might be a pen

    We seem to have lost a bit of confidence since they had that breakaway. Hope we settle again
