A must win game for Adams and crew. Milwall have been playing well and they are beatable. The key is not conceding early, or even in the first half. We have to score first. If we go a goal down then we'll lose. The players are lacking confidence and the crowd will get on the teams back.
Of course the trouble is that we are leaking goals. We are giving away soft, soft goals week in week out. We simply cannot afford to do that. I hope that Adams had had them defending set pieces this week in training. It's no use dominating possession, scrapping for evey ball etc (which we have in recent weeks) if we are just going to gift the opposition the lead. We must get infront first in this match.
My team would be:
------- SS
Parrino Collins Ertl Lowry
Lowton McAllister Monty* Yeates
------- Ched Boggy
I hope I am wrong, but I see yet more frustration and another home defeat. United 1-2 Milwall is my prediction (but please let me be wrong and give us 3 points).
* could be Doyle, but Monty was better last week (despite being poor and frankly embarassing)
