Re: What is our formation?
Only 10 players there. Why is the goalkeeper always forgotten/left off formations, surely he is worth a "1" on his own, particularly for his footwork when playing "out from the back".

Re: What is our formation?
This is how I see it.
Slightly different with, and without, the ball.
It does mean the wing-backs (which, if its Theo/Graham, aren't really wing backs) have to cover a lot of ground.
Believe that at the start of the season, and for almost the entirety of last, it was 4-2-3-1 - two 'holding' in midfield, 2 wide attacking players (Smyth/Theo as it was), and one behind the striker (often Moncur)...

Re: What is our formation?
What is it now? Pre season RW spoke of 2 up front to get Agyei and Kelman on the pitch but I don't think its that and our limited number of strikers surely doesn't encourage that either?
4231? Agyei wide?
