It's a bit early in the season to be checking every single other teams results guys, come on

 

[covcity4life]

Like Southampton should be beating Bristol City ?

When will people realise you don't assume anything in this league

When will people realise you don't assume anything in this league

I look forward to the match thread tomorrow night and all the must win posts

 

[Matt smith]

Crap set of results today. Have to try to beat Plymouth tomorrow. Play strongest 11 and go for it.

Haven’t really got a choice to be honest, particularly in midfield and up front, down to bare bones

a win here would be tremendous and would be a statement victory imo

need a big game from Palmer tomorrow

We've had one already (if you read the small print)

Bare bones , come on Matt remember your new year resolution

Yeah no panic tonight

Relegation fight back in play

We are thin on the ground then martin

who’s gonna change the game from the bench if needed tomorrow? Tavares?

saka and Palmer probably gonna have to play 90

 

[Matt smith]

Relegation fight back in play

3 points from 50, first objective

 

[Martin180]

Depends on the starting line up ? Simms or Palmer potentially depending on who plays

And it isn’t always game changers , it’s being able to tweak a system like Sunday with Joel coming into midfield

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

okay that has gone over your head

Let me explain if we want to be one of the 6 best teams in this division we should be looking to beat a team such as Plymouth.

11 out of 14 havent

Wonder if he’d play two up front if Ohare and Allen out

True

saka Palmer wright
Simms

we should still have enough up front to score goals

need to keep clean sheets

 

[Martin180]

Wonder if he’d play two up front if Ohare and Allen out

Could play Torp higher up the pitch if Callum isn’t fit and play Eccles and Kelly behind

 

[Matt smith]

Wonder if he’d play two up front if Ohare and Allen out

Think he’d change to a front 2 but not start

condense the middle

o hare being out if true is a big blow but would rather us not run any risks if he’s sprained his ankle or something

 

[Matt smith]

Could play Torp higher up the pitch if Callum isn’t fit and play Eccles and Kelly behind

Did think this, especially if sitting on a lead

 

[Martin180]

Simms

Kitching or Binks is a big call tomorrow, Binks has been very good since coming in

 

[Matt smith]

Kitching or Binks is a big call tomorrow, Binks has been very good since coming in

Agreed, it’ll be Kitching though

 

[Martin180]

Agreed, it’ll be Kitching though

I’m not so sure , Robins doesn’t like players getting a bad disciplinary record . He certainly wound Gus back in early last season , I wouldn’t be surprised to see him make a point tomorrow night

 

[Deleted member 9744]

Agreed, it’ll be Kitching though

Depends on fitness but would be harsh to drop Binks who was our best defender last match.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Not poor discipline though

 

[Matt smith]

I agree, but Kitching will start

 

[Matt smith]

Kitching is robins first choice, he was back in straight after his ban last time

 

[Martin180]

Not poor discipline though

I know the red card against Wednesday was harsh but his lunge against Norwich was poor judgement .

I’m a huge Kitching fan and can see him playing in the Premier League but we will see tomorrow night who Robins picks

 

[Martin180]

Kitching is robins first choice, he was back in straight after his ban last time

He is our best centre back

 

[Londonccfcfan]

He is our best centre back

Not even close Thomas is. Imho

 

[Martin180]

Not even close Thomas is. Imho

Thomas isn’t in the top two

 

[Londonccfcfan]

Thomas isn’t in the top two

In your opinion.

 

[Martin180]

In your opinion.

Ditto

 

[covcity4life]

Thomas isn’t in the top two

Who's better?

 

[Ian1779]

Kitching far and away our best CB. Thomas and Binks are both quality though

Thomas and Binks have individual qualities which I think make it difficult to compare them against each other.

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

No real surprises with the results tonight so nothing changes tomorrow.

We’re not reliant on other teams dropping points as of yet and a draw takes us back into the top 6.

Tomorrow is not a must-win game, that’s silly talk. We play WBA, Hull, PNE and Watford - these are must-not-lose games.

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Kitching far and away our best CB. Thomas and Binks are both quality though

I actually prefer Thomas and he’s matured very well as the season has progressed.

3 quality options at CB and as for Lats, more a RCB (in a 3) or fullback to my mind.
