Same but as @Bertola rightly says they couldn't handle O'Hare last season, resorted to constantly fouling him so could work well.
O’Hare is getting into some great positions in the box, he just needs to start converting some of those chances.
Agree with both tbf. Just worry about the midfield being a bit exposed with just Hamer and Kelly in there but you’d imagine McCallum will off a bit more defensively in that sort of area than Giles does so that may compensate.

3 at the back, 2 up front and a pretty strong (for our squad) midfield. Liking this lineup. As Liquid suggested, looks like Robins has been reading this forum ;)

Bet you’re gutted he’s trying for your position as this forum’s biggest bellender aren’t you ?

Don’t worry he’s a long way to go, he’s trying his hardest, and using alcohol to help him in his quest for glory, whereas it just comes naturally to you. It’ll take a bloke better than him to knock you off your pedestal.

Why are you still here? Are you really that sad that you have to hang around a Cov forum for friends? I get that there's loads of fucking weirdos in our support but mate it's fucking sad.

I know there is not much to do apart from incest in Barnsley but mate get a new hobby.

Also if you want to be insulting then do it properly, go big or go home.

I agree, Sheaf is really good at breaking up attacks & playmaking from deep - could have started solid & then utilised O'Hare off the bench.
I'm not against this team at all though & fancy O'Hare will cause them problems again just hope he can be more clinical!

The way other results have gone recently a point won't be too bad today...should move us further away from those below.

A win would be monumental. Would really put daylight between us and bottom 5.

Ironic really, he could hang around to talk about politics.

Big match today. I reckon it could influence our next couple of matches in the league.

Rotherham have gone through exactly the same issues as us in trying to adapt to the championship. Paul Warne is playing a different set up against different teams and also based on player fitness and availabity
They will be 4 3 3 today I expect
Somebody mentioned earlier about Richard Woods and set pieces. Ostiogard or McFadz nead to mark him very closely. His weakness is now his speed and OHare and Walker should benefit.
He and Robins know each other well I believe, Warne played under him

It means we are mixing it up depending on the opposition... Me personally.. I'm glad we are playing this system against these today

So am I but we still, at some point, have to start getting midfielders into the box.
We had 3 in the box and Hamer on the edge when we scored on Tuesday, that's what needs to happen today otherwise the extra striker will have limited impact.
I don't expect it to happen from the off but we have to start turning the screw at some point if the game is tight.

Nice to know ifollow goes mental for them too. Surely Lapado isn’t on the wing

Ladapo at wing-back & Michael Ihiekwe up front 🤣

I've watched other EFL games & they do it for every team. So basic & only tiniest bit of research necessary yet they can't be bothered. Coverage is pretty shoddy all around really considering what we pay for it.

Good call Evo - my main worry over today is Rotherham's physicality. Free kick in the last quarter of the pitch are likely to be the biggest threat from them I would have thought. For whatever reason, I'm less fearful of Luton than this lot (although most teams don't look that scary until match day!) and I am confident we will do our usual job on Wycombe. Won't grumble about a draw today (at the moment!)
