Well I think Ollie is spoilt for choice now. Who does he pick for Saturday ? We had some good performances from players in both games this last week. What team would you go with ?                              Over 37 years living in Suffolk but always a mariner.                              69 Years following the Town                               Life member of Trust                                First game   April 1955

We (as in England) were also spoilt last week beating the number 1 ranked team in the world.  Downhill since then.  We average 10 players for each game recently.  Including the (very good) James getting a red card after the match finished.

Rose for Morton seems an upgrade, but I think putting Hanson in will take away from the high pressing and high tempo football we played. Not that he doesn't work hard, but he's just a lot less mobile than Gibson and the front 3 worked very well together. Plus I hate that when Hanson is on we decide to lump it forward constantly yet don't seem to win the 2nd ball much.

He gets in the right positions but just needs a bit of composure . I am sure once he gets one many more will follow.                              Over 37 years living in Suffolk but always a mariner.                              69 Years following the Town                               Life member of Trust                                First game   April 1955

Snakebite drinker Posts: 411 Posts Per Day: 0.14 Reputation: 68.04% Rep Score: +3 / -3 Approval: +842 Gold Stars: 12	I think we have enough options to be flexible and tactically change depending on the opposition. We could easily go either 3-4-3 or 4-3-3 with Rose coming in for Morton or one of the centre backs. Equally we could play Hanson as a target man in a 4-5-1. The more unpredictable we are, the more difficult it is for teams to set up against us. Grim Outlook exile

These kids will only improve with games and competition for places . If we can go to Cheltenham and get a result why not orient with the same starting 11 and formation? Lower F5

He struggled at Walsall and not much better at Bolton. Needs bringing up to speed for me.

He struggled at Walsall and not much better at Bolton. Needs bringing up to speed for me. Clifton has been the only one of the centre midfielders who has looked anything like match fit , Rose, Morton, Williams, Spokes, Taylor all lagging behind. I wouldnt be suprised if he didnt rotate them again and Spokes makes an appearance this week. 2023/24 DLWDDWDLLLWDLLLLWDDDWDLLWLDLLDWDDWLLDWLWLWL but not NLN 😁 2022/23LDWDWWDWLLDWWDLLLDLWLLWLWLLWDDLDWWDDDLLWDWLWLW 2021/22 WDWWWWDLWWWWLLLWLLDLWLLWWDWWWLWDLWWDWWWDLWD play offs WWW Promoted 🥳 2020/21  LLDWWLDLDWLWLLLDLWLLDLLDLLLWLLLDDDDWDDDLWLWLWL .. hello darkness my old friend 2019/20  WDLDWWLDLWWLLLDLDLDLDDWWDLLWDDWWL WLLW - ended 2018/19  LWDDLLLLLLWWDWLLLWDWLWWWWLLLLWWWWDLLLDDLLDLWLW Hello Scunny

Covers so much ground and without him in our squad a 2 man  central midfield would probably be a lot less likely to work.
