Macca, Slim and Osula to come on and effect things, OZ and Fleck to come on and stifle out own play.....

 

[William Carey]

Hecky playing safe

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

Norwood keeps place
Revert to 3 at the back
Insist on 2 strikers

And that's how you put the nail in your coffin of your job

 

[jt64]

That line up would be much better with McAtee instead of Norwood

 

[derfblade.3]

532 again

Think we could get away with 433?

 

[brownblade]

Think we could get away with 433?

In fairness it could be anything. My first assumption was 532 with Baldock RCB.

 

[derfblade.3]

0.3

 

[jt64]

I would not be averse to trying a 433 or 4231 with Brewdog and Bogle wide

 

[jt64]

In fairness it could be anything. My first assumption was 532 with Baldock RCB.

Yeah, that was also my first thought

 

[Camden Blade]

Norwood and Souza get in each others way and should not be starting together. They lose possession, and play too deep. One or the other not both. It doesn't help Hamer's game either. We keep losing the midfield battle. This is why.

Of we are reverting to a back 5, surely Larouici would have been a better shout than Thomas

 

[bakeblade]

Hecky playing safe

As usual

 

[jt64]

Maybe. I've not seen enough of either to form a judgment

 

[Rufus Smalls]

It's time for hecky to do what he did at Sunderland away, following luton at home last season.

That was his best bit of management so far, for me.

Show some bravery.

I’m not sure what he did, or the team he picked. But it will have contained Illiman so infinitely better than any of the 11 today.

UTB !

Norwood shouldnt be anywhere near that team
Looks worse every week
Its almost cruel to watch him look so forlorn and broken

 

[Lmaobob]

A win isn’t enough for me. It has to be a convincing win and not a scrappy goal where we defend a 1-0 lead for 85 minutes with 11 players behind the ball every second.

Just seen that he’s opted for 5 at the back again, he’s signed his own p45 I think.

I’d take a crappy 1-0 victory right now !

 

[Foxy]

A win isn’t enough for me.

I’d snap your hand off for a 1-0 off Laroucis arse in 90+7.

A win, however it comes, is all that matters right now.

 

[Constantly Optimistic...]

In fairness it could be anything. My first assumption was 532 with Baldock RCB.

Absolutely, back to negative 532 unless Bogle is moved to midfield, which I doubt, because it would be McAtee surely? Very negative line up, as per. Going for 0-0 draw....

 

[Lmaobob]

If we’re scraping a 1-0 victory against the ‘easier’ teams then we don’t have a chance for the rest of the fixtures

I understand that train of thought, but 3 points is all that counts in the situation we are in.

 

[Belvedere Blade]

Is useless NORWOOD going to give away another penalty away via VAR or a dangerous free kick close to penalty box like he has last 2 games or is their any chance today he will be more careful with those tackles

 

[sheff_blade90]

I disagree that the manager will be sacked if we lose this game!

i might be wrong but i just feel it in my waters. just feels like more managers get sacked in November than anything

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

Looks like a back 4 from the warmup with bogle in mid

 

[Chief_Froley]

Think we’ll go back to a three at the back for this.

Wow. Good guess.

I wouldn't trust him, to tackle a 2 piece jigsaw without the picture

 

[Jon Bon II]

2-1 Blades. Archer; Norwood.

 

[Brian Deane]

Is the picture one of the pieces

 

[SLB]

0.3

Exactly what I think.
