Gutted for Crnac, not the most positive start to the season for him, but I do think there's some potential in him. Hope he's fit for pre-season under the new manager.

This sort of list looks so familiar. Are the players being over-trained? We need sports scientists from the outside to look at what is going on at Colney.

Is this the best line-up we could put out given the current injuries and lack of wingers? Going back to Manning's original formation might be the best way to go. Wright could be swapped out for Topic and maybe Kvistgaarden for Jurasek due to fitness.
Kovacevic
Stacey Medic Darling Mclean Schlupp
Mattsson Wright
Schwartau Kvistgaarden
Sargent

I guess it depends on whether Kenny has 90 mins in him, could be forced into 4-2-3-1/4-2-1-1 if Topic has to play. Don't love Schlupp as a wing back and that team definitely lacks width - but not sure what the alternative is!

I think something is wrong here. According to the data on the right, at home we had two wins and three draws last season, while away we had two wins and two draws, but this would be 17 points overall, not 16 as given above.

Well spot, its an adding error, it should be 17, I will amend it for the next match.
