I did worry when saw line up that we would take time to figure out yet another new formation.

Think we should go back to 433 half time if things don't change. We are struggling to move the ball further up the pitch like this

No commentary on Ifollow (IPTV) feels very apt

 

[PVA]

We didn't play 4231, we played 433, with a flat 3 in midfield, Allen as a number 8 and Eccles/Sheaf alternating as a 4/8.

No we didn't.

We played 4-2-3-1 against Stoke and Plymouth.

4-3-3 at Millwall.

Helps when the opposition have set up to sit back and hope for the best instead of to counter

Yeah we look so pedestrian in compared to them.

 

[Matt smith]

We need to make major changes whilst it’s still only 1. Sorry and all that but it ain’t working.
Got to get Callum and Ayari off now.

Great team selection from robins

 

[ptr]

Bidwell yellow today is a banker.

 

[Macca]

My word the different in these teams is phenomenal

 

[Nick]

We are getting the ball and have literally no outlet.

 

[Great_Expectations]

We knew it from the start but the more you watch the more Ayari and COH in for Godden and Sakamoto seems an absolutely wank call.

Not just their individual performances but tactically we look clueless.

We didn't. Allen wasn't playing as 10, he played as a 8

Wright stayed high and wide, and did Saka with a bit of floating around.

Same last year when we lost sheaf/hamer we went to a midfield 3 and then they just rotated one came out the other 2 sat in.

‘Frequency of games Nick’

must be hard playing Saturday Tuesday

Real talk can you explain your thought process with usage of quotation marks here lol

 

[clint van damme]

Another poor ball when under no pressure, dreadful stuff.

 

[Nick]

Is Bidwell pissed? He just tried to help their player up then pushed him back over.

 

[Skybluecol]

Ohare not match fit......Ayari, not good enough and Wright....for me, doesn't work hard enough off the ball.

Robins selection here strange.

I'd have gone Simms Godden and Saka as the front 3......fitter & press better

 

[Chris1987]

Wright is the only outlet. In the last 2 games we've had more than one option. Just inviting pressure

 

[Cov98]

Ayari off for Simms and have a front 3 of O Hare, Wright and Simms.

 

[wingy]

It's great with no commentary.

All I see is 1 in goal and 1 up front with a fucking mess in between

 

[Marty]

So unlucky for Wright

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

I know. It’s painful to watch

Careful

 

[Sick Boy]

This is pathetic, we've approached it like they're a couple of divisions above us.

 

[Nick]

Yep, Sheaf, Eccles and Allen were playing blind balls into the channels and there was always somebody there.

We have fuck all.

Masterclass from Robins. Just you wait and see.

Lost before it even kicked off by trying to be so negative.

 

[covcity4life]

That's better city

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

My word the different in these teams is phenomenal

But but but we are work in progress

 

[Seymour_East]

Nice try Bidwell

 

[clint van damme]

Well Saka is potentially injured, I'm sure we'll find out for sure post match, but even if that's the case, starting Ayari is bizarre.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Masterclass from Robins. Just you wait and see.

He’s probably better off on Masterchef rather than here today

 

[Marty]

This is incredibly frustrating today, seemed we finally turned the corner and then we change the starting 11.

Where's that from?

We didn't. Allen wasn't playing as 10, he played as a 8

It was fluid against Plymouth.

But against Stoke it was 100% a 4-2-3-1.

 

[Tommo1993]

COH and Ayari off at HT. Ayari is just a complete fraud.
