No because it would be 3 up front.

Last 10 minutes at 1-0 down trying to go for it.

More of a 4 3 3.

Again, players don't have to be replaced with players in the same position.

If you seriously think bringing Tavares on was the answer, while simultaneously claiming MR got it tactically wrong.. I can’t help you m8

It will, same bedwetters every year having the same reactions at the same stuff happening just with less excuses as to why its happening (pitch debacle, training ground)

It depends who he was bringing on at the time.

He could have brought torp on instead of tats or even put tats up there in the 3 to press rather than tavares to go for it.

Maybe the run of good form last season was the real fluke and the best this side can really offer is a relegation battle.

We have won 2 games in the last 16. Three like for like nonsense and refusal to change things during the game is clearly working for us isn't it.

With investment in Jan (2 loans, maybe 1 perm) then yeah. This is the same team (- O’hare) that made it to the FA cup Semi’s and up until then was top 6

To have a shot at reaching 50 points this team needs to win 1 in 3 for the remaining 36 games. I don’t see where this comes from.

Also definitely not a given. These players look like our worst team since returning to this league.

Last year we were dead last at one point, year before we started poorly as well, season before that was the odd one out but the other year before was the same (first year back up)

Try context? I said at one nil down on 80 minutes against a tired defence that didn't like being pressed.

Still, you're happy being in the relegation zone as long as it's robins. Got to applaud those like for like changes every week while we watch the opposition want to win the game.

Well we’ve done that before..

Im not the professional but I’d hazard a guess at all the change behind the scenes, it takes time to adapt and for coaches and players to develop connections. Fanbase hasnt helped the confidence though mind

It's not reactionary, if it was a bad spell of 2 games then you might have a point.
