I think a lot of this is going to come down to fitness rather than tactics. If they were fit and ready to go you’d have Sheaf/Hamer/Allen/Palmer in there no question.
Would think he has to go one up top for this one with Godden dropping out for Allen and Sheaf coming in for Eccles or Hamer depending on injuries.
I'd also look at the bench, assuming Walkers season is done, if we're chasing the game, JWE and Burroughs would inject some pace out wide to replace tired legs. Dabo for BNC maybe if we are protecting a lead. Maguire is never going to be an answer to any question.
If Sheaf starts and plays well, we'll look a different side.
I'm a bit unsure on what to do re Godden. He wasn't in the game, but then does a lot of unselfish running, and is there a risk Vik is isolated?
Yeah completely agreeIf we had Palmer and/or O’Hare I think you’d see a different tactic. But with the personnel we’ve got hoping for a bit of magic from Gus or Vik while the rest stay tight is probably our best hope.
Cause godden was playing Allen’s roleVik was completely isolated anyway.
Cause godden was playing Allen’s role
Midweek away games this season: Played 5 Drawn 5
As robins was really happy with his contribution it is pretty clear he was doing what he was asked with the hope that a chance might fall to himGod knows what role Godden was playing yesterday. I'd be shocked if he even knew.

Pretty sure Allen would play the role he’s better at if fit
Godden was harrying and hassling
Allen does this and more in that he makes attacking runs but misses chances
Godden doesn’t make many runs and makes the most of his chances
LolWell it isn't. His role would've been to support Gyokeres and he failed miserably at doing that.
There was no link whatsoever between two players all game.
Lol
You think which
Robins didn’t explain himself
Godden didn’t do what he was asked
Robins was building confidence when asked and not saying what he truly thought
All of which could be true or none of it

I don’t think he impacted the game at allIf you honestly think Godden played well then frankly you're not worth conversing with.

Indeed. Though real football fans should want to see O’Nien going off on a stretcher tomorrow evening
The boro fans were complaining about the bias sky coverage towards us
Well, it's worded as in any EFL Playoffs but given the Muppets who run that account, who knows...Was it us in L2 or is this a Championship only statistic?
Allen not a cm though as he played Sunday
He needs to play behind yok
I don’t think Godden played well. His role in the team is to finish off chances and in games where we struggle, he will not look good.
Realistically, if Sheaf is fit I’d play the box formation with Hamer and Allen behind Gyokeres. It should give us more energy on and off the ball without giving up a solid screen for the defence.
With Palmer and O’Hare in the side, I’d feel a lot more confident and our lack of depth is exposed somewhat.
To get to the playoffs without them in the first place is seriously impressive.
Didn’t we play Middlesbrough away midweek, on bh Monday? 1-1 alsoMidweek away games this season: Played 5 Drawn 5
2-2 vs Luton
0-0 vs Bristol City
0-0 vs Preston
1-1 vs Wigan
1-1 vs Blackburn
Robins clearly had his mind on the 2nd leg, and probably thinks we can win the tie that way. Instruction was not to lose yesterday which we achieved. If the away leg was always going to be tough he would of sent us out to win the game yesterday.
Yes, but with over a week’s break since the previous came. This is purely games where we played away on the Tuesday or Wednesday after playing at the weekend too.Didn’t we play Middlesbrough away midweek, on bh Monday? 1-1 also
