By this logic we haven’t had wingbacks for years as most of the could either not defend or not attack.
Agreed. Wing backs are a combination of defensive and attack. If you can’t defend then you’re no wing back!
Honestly feel Robins has to ditch the wing back setup its not working
Footballs evolving away from it also
For me with the players we've got i think we need a kindof 4 2 3 1
GKWilson
RB Latibeaudiere
CB Thomas
CB Kitching
LB DaSilva
CDM Kelly
CM Allen
CAM Ayari
CAM Tats
CAM Palmer
ST Godden
Think ayari looks rly good and would like to take the risk and start him in either CM behind Palmer or as AM with Allen as the CM
Wouldn't mind seeing what lati is like at rWB and bring Thomas back in as RCB
I agree a change in formation or a plan B or C is needed. We are so predictable now.Honestly feel Robins has to ditch the wing back setup its not working

Yeah I'm a Palmer fan but he's been poor last 2 games so no issue if he's droppedI'd bring Ayari in for Palmer, he's improving every game and after Palmers performance Tuesday I'd take a gamble on him starting over Palmer.

What he needs to do is sub wing backs.Honestly feel Robins has to ditch the wing back setup its not working

It's an intense position if they bomb forward a lot. Ours don't.What he needs to do is sub wing backs.
Inzaghi in Italy subs both wing backs every game usually around 60-70 min mark.
It's such a intense position yet we just ran MVE into ground so soon.
Bidwell and BNC as an example coming on for 20-30 every game may have stopped us showing tiredness towards end of games
MVE did a lot of running back and forth imoIt's an intense position if they bomb forward a lot. Ours don't.
I remember the performance of Giles against us in the second leg of the play-off semi final. He must have created 15 really attacking situations for his team and his crosses were nearly all dangerous. We really should be expecting one of our wing backs to be able to create attacking chances and put the ball into dangerous areas. While I think Saka lacks defensive ability, it was quite noticeable how much more intent we had on Tuesday when he came on and he did get at least 4 or 5 crosses into the box and one nearly resulted in Jay DS having a tap in.It's an intense position if they bomb forward a lot. Ours don't.
Not blame him ???? Really????Not sure you can blame Sakamoto too much for the 2nd against Cardiff. If your wing back is back in the box competing for a cross something’s gone wrong with the system.
The only problem with that is Sakamoto isn't a wing back and I very much doubt he wants to become one.Not blame him ???? Really????
If you ball watch while your man jogs past you and has a free tap in you need to be hung out to dry, he let his team mates down by not doing the basics.
There seems to be some fundamental misunderstanding of what the role of a wingback is on here.
Allow me to enlighten you, when your team don't have possession, the first and most important job of a wingback is to DEFEND!
Well saidNot blame him ???? Really????

I keep saying it and I’m not the only one I speak to says the same that Sakamoto isn’t a wing back suited for the championship. He may of got away with it in Japan and in the Belgium intergalactic leagues but not here over 40 odd games.The only problem with that is Sakamoto isn't a wing back and I very much doubt he wants to become one.
Blame the manager.
You’re one of the more tedious trolls. On ignore for making me yawn. Do better.I keep saying it and I’m not the only one I speak to says the same that Sakamoto isn’t a wing back suited for the championship.

Robins knows that as now I’d guess.

Watch the goal back.You what?

Watch the goal back.
For some reason Fadz calls Lati across to mark their #12, which leaves Sakamoto to cover Grant.
Fadz and Lati end up a couple of yards apart both covering the same man while the cross bypasses them.
I don’t agree. If Sakamoto is picking up that man he’s going to be pinned in his own half all game.Grant was their left sided striker, he is Sakamoto's man in that scenario. You can't have big gaps between your centre backs for players to exploit.

Yeah it was weird to single him out when actual defenders have made worse mistakes this season and not been thrown under the bus.Robins knew all along he wasn't a wing back. When we signed him he said " An exciting attacking midfielder " he might of hopes with coaching he could play wing back but clearly he didn't sign him as one.
The lad has made a mistake allowing his man inside him to score. If he's played as a wing back again maybe he will learn from it and it won't happen again. He certainly isn't the only player to make a mistake that the opposition score from this season.
Looking like it'll be a pretty sparse crowd. Surprised how many season ticket holders I know who are sitting this one out. Imagine the official crowd with be ok, over 20K, but doubt there will be more than 16K in there. Should be in the pub now looking forward to this one. Fucking sky.
Well he did drop Thomas because of one game.Yeah it was weird to single him out when actual defenders have made worse mistakes this season and not been thrown under the bus.
So because transfermarkt doesn’t make a distinction between RM and RWB, that means they’re actually the same position?And not to beat a dead horse, but if you look at van Ewijks positions on transfermarkt for this season it has him playing RM for us, because that’s what it counts a wingback as.
Was it @Sky Blue Harry H who was organising the injury sweepstakes?Sorry to be the bearer of bad news
But another ones gone in training this morning
Dont know who yet
442.
Collins
Lati Thomas Kitching Bidwell
Saka Eccles Ayari Da Silva
