Take one letter out of bard and you have his level of writing. Who can forget him announcing that City might try an experimental 4 4 3 formation in the next game?

Whatever happened to him?

He was the Hull KR reporter, then City, then...
 
Still too many square pegs in round holes. Perfect time to change it

Not sure how we'll do that completely. Philogene obviously can take one wide spot but I think it's unlikely there'll be a 'natural' winger on the other side just because the wingers after Philogene just aren't as good as Twine, Traore and lately Tufan who are all best centrally but obviously can't all play there. I can see Philogene starting Friday, but I imagine it'll still be Twine or Traore on the other wing.

I'd like to see Philogene and Lokilo on the wings with Twine central and Delap upfront. It'll never happen but it would be interesting to see us with 2 proper wingers for a change.
Keep the Leicester set up except Philogene wide left and Twine into the centre. Morton to replace either Seri or Slater depending on how knackered Seri is.

I don’t a midfield 2 of Twine and one other would cope against a championship midfield physically/defensively. Would have to be Morton Slater if Seri is knackered.

Don’t think Seri played at all so he won’t be knackered. Think Rosenior will keep in mind we are playing twice in a week so expect Morton and Seri start one each.

Right now, I'd far rather we played Lokilo, or even Connolly or Christie on the right than Traore.

Sub Traore on for a central Twine if we're winning to see if he can gain some confidence in the middle.
 
Traore took Tufan’s role next to the striker in possession. But it was more of one yeah

It had to be more of a compact formation against Leicester and it worked, Coventry play a similar style to us so they’ll be patient. Be interesting to see how they set up without Hamer and who does their leg work in midfield.

Sheaf was always the ball winner for Cov, Hamer is just that good he does everything.
