    Looks a selection to bring more aggression and know how. Hope we dont lose too much creativity. Definitely a reaction to another heavy defeat where we seemed to be too easy to play against. Conceding 5 is a bad sign but I dont want us to throw the baby out with bathwater here, our eay out of this league is the creative players we have.

    Absolutely mate. Even when he was on the bench at Crewe, LJ put Wright on instead at 4-0 up. Baffling to say the least.

    I have high hopes O'Nien will look better in a 3 and with Evans in there. I think he gets too carried away in centre mid and tries to be all things, instead of playing his game. He may find it simpler as a 3.

    I remember when he was playing so well as a centre back last year he was never playing a complicated game. It was always ball in front of him, one part of the pitch. He and Sanderson were a real partnership and they would give everything for each other. I think he might thrive on having a really straightforward role, which may be as a three, or even perhaps back in the defence, where I think he has played his best.

    Yet again a flat back four, think Sheffield are playing a back three according to B & B on the radio . good to see Broadhead back hope he gets a 20 minute run out with us 2 or 3 goals to the good. OaU.
