They weren't, we scored 4.
Completely different game. If they had played 5 at that back and defended for 90 minutes during that game do you think we would have still scored 4?

We looked a limited side last night and Wednesday coped with us comfortably, even with 10 men.
Looks as if we've lost some confidence from only winning one in 10, we looked tired and we've got to hope Wilder's picked the right new additions to kick-start a decent second half of the season.
The danger is the momentum we had going into the season has switched direction and that can be equally hard to stop.
I think the problem is they defended very well but some people refuse to give them any credit at all because they're the pigs so take the view that we couldn't beat them because we were shit.
But they didn't and that's my point. If took Mr Tash and the B string 6 days to come up with a very effective plan to nullify us. That's concerning. They've never played that formation and they still nullified us. That's concerning.
Wilder, Knill and the team absolutely need a plan to unpick stubborn defenses because on last night's showing, the worst teams in the league, with barely any preparation are going to be capable of nullifying us. That's concerning.
We were poor but Wednesday did play well, particularly given they had a weak team out.
But we did play into their hands with consistently poor choices in the final third and a lack of flair.
Wilson doesn't look as if he's going to offer much in terms of ability to beat a man or pace which means we're relying a heck of a lot on Brooks returning unless Duffy and/or Holmes (if he's signing) can give us more penetration from midfield.
I could have told you that in order to nullify us what you need to do is put every player behind the ball. The same goes for most teams. I think you’re overreacting
Perhaps but that doesn't change the fact that they need to figure out a way to win against teams that set up to absorb pressure and try to play on the break. Not easy, but it needs to happen.
