Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 3,856 Posted January 1 The club's official team sheet has us with three at the back, including McLean. At least it's a nice easy switch to the usual 4-2-3-1 if it isn't working. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Surely would have made more sense to push through and capture the 3 points against the weak side, then have a free hit at the promotion contenders where you could at least argue if it went terribly wrong that the players were just shattered due to fixture congestion. Result will likely be 0 points instead of a good chance of 3 points. I don't get this manager. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Smith 2,339 Posted January 1 I read it as 4-2-3-1 personally but either way it’s a better balanced looking side/formation. Shame we didn’t play it in the two recent more winnable fixtures. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Friday was the third game in six days, today is the sixth in twenty one.....some players can take the workload, some can't. Sport science will dictate who is on the edge of injury.

Sport science will dictate who is on the edge of injury. It will be schedule rather than fixture dictated. Every club and manager has to contend with this though, including Millwall who rotated and came out of their 3 games with 7 points. And Rowe only played 66 minutes against Huddersfield, and 45 minutes against West Brom, before being started on the bench against Millwall. Nunez probably more understandable as he'd played 90 minutes 6 games in a row before Millwall. But then some players apparently need to be rotated heavily, while Ashley Barnes starts every game at 34 when he clearly looks absolutely shot to pieces.
