Probably what Robins was hoping to get to Jan with but doesn't seem to fancy Ayari there atm.

One up front when we went ahead was common sense.
However, there is somehing to be said in the logic that playing Wright, Godden is like us starting with 10 men and playing Wright, Godden and Palmer is like starting with 9.... especially away from home.
Still think that's a solid away point against one of the dark horses for promotion , we probably got it tactically wrong in the last 15 , we should be looking to close out a game where the midfield is knackered and being overran , ideally the box sees us out and we don't stick with 2 strikers
I've seen enough to think we will take 6 points from Cardiff and Huddersfield
Four draws out of six means it’s a total Rorschach test for fans. Some see one defeat in six some see one win in six. Not for the league, but for fans sanity we need a win soon.
Based on what?I think fans are confusing not being able to land their midfield targets, and not trying too.
we tried several options but failed, that isn’t neglect.

We've only failed to score once this seasonWho do you think will score?
In the absence of a ratings thread:
Wilson 7
MVE 7
Lati 7
McF 7
Binks 7
JDS 6
Cake 6
Kelly 6
Ayari 6
Godden 6
Wright 6
Subs
Palmer 5
Simms 6
Bidwell 6
MR has had time to learn how to get his subbing right. We talk about young players coming in still needing to learn, but never about MR still having this cautious approach to subs and holding on to what he’s got instead of the kill. Last night showed again his preference for Godden who was awol 2nd half.Agree, I think when this is addressed, things will link better, and it's then we will see what our strikers can do. It feels like they are having to drop quite deep at the moment to compensate, which was ok for Vik but we have different style strikers now meaning the midfield need to plug the gap and bring the ball up the pitch more.
Well perhaps not pace, should have said fresh legs.Palmer? Pace?
He’s very goodHe's alright.
I think 'that's not how football works' is a massive cop out for the failure to prepare for the moving on of Hamer tbh. But I think I should stop going on about it now and hope that it is sorted to some extent in January.

Binks lucky to not face any retrospective discipline… silly boy. There’s a blatant swing.
Probably the most talented midfield 3 we could field but I'm not sure Robins will trust Ayari in the positionIf Ayari can become an 8 well be fine. Big if mind. Could we get away with a midfield three of O’Hare Sheaf Ayari?
Lol that was like a UFC finish where the ref pushes the guy off the fallen foe too lolBinks lucky to not face any retrospective discipline… silly boy. There’s a blatant swing.
That is very true, Vik would somehow get on the end of almost everything.To be fair to Wright and Simms the rest of the team have been spoiled with a striker you can lump it up to with a twenty yard tolerance and still expect them to get on the end of it.
Yeah, the sometimes OTT criticism of the new strikers shows some *still* don't necessarily appreciate just how good Gyokeres was for us.To be fair to Wright and Simms the rest of the team have been spoiled with a striker you can lump it up to with a twenty yard tolerance and still expect them to get on the end of it.
Let's not go too mad, aside from not stopping a ball into the box we were on for an excellent win away from home.
My view on Palmer has been expressed and his defensive limitations shown.
We're a good side not far from being a very good one.

Yes. They were playing against good players and did well, and to be honest we didn't really miss Sheaf. Even Ayari played ok. The weakness was the strikers.Kelly and Eccles were absolutely fine last night...
It was a good performance but you wouldn't think that from reading most posters on here. Agreed we should have brought in an extra midfielder towards the end as none of the strikers were achieving much anyway,Still think that's a solid away point against one of the dark horses for promotion , we probably got it tactically wrong in the last 15 , we should be looking to close out a game where the midfield is knackered and being overran , ideally the box sees us out and we don't stick with 2 strikers
