I would say he’s the most dangerous player we’re got.
Glad Ross took my advice.

We were playing 4-3-3.
Oh , Ok . In that case we should just stick with 4-3-3-. :D. That obviously works for us . Very good result against one of the better teams in our division .

Was it actually Dennis' goal? Thought it rebounded off of JMD?

Who cares, i guess.

That will quieten down the moaners.
Just shows that changing the formation and playing attacking football works, think it actually proves a few people right ;)
Something had to change and thank God it did. It's especially pleasing to see the strikers scoring and getting off the mark.
As said previously even Bonne and Koroma didn't score with the 3-5-2. Give these boys a chance to show their abilities with a formation that allows them to attack and then we can truly see what they're about as per second half today #bebrave

Fantastic comeback, I do love this team but my God they're infuriating!
Can we complain about the 2 conceded & leaving it so late?

Still a bit lop sided with a midfield 3 of Brophy, Wright and Clay, so not sure if that personnel is the answer...

A pretty good counter attack. Wright to Angol who ran into the box and smashed over a low cross/shot, dennis at the back post who i think actually almost f*cked it up but it hit JMD and flew in from 1 yard.

Angol (my MOTM) broke down the left and shot/ cross to the far post, JMD and Dennis we’re there with one of their defenders and bundled it over the line at the second attempt.

What an absolutely great result, especially from two down away to a fancied team. Well done the team and well done to Ross for changing it about. Top marks.

I know it's very easy on here saying do this or do that

I notice on texts Dennis's was a major part in assists maybe he be picked from the start now

WELL DONE Lofc
We played with 0 wingers second half.

Will be a huge confidence boost for the players and management, hope it really kickstarts our season.

Be lucky to see a better game this season, Orient had more possession first half but very blunt and two counter-attacking pens given away. Second half the move to 4-4-2/4-3-3 looked far better bar the first 15 minutes where the right side looked non-existent, Wilkinson and Angol had players nearer to them and width, Dennis with a class assist for the first goal and he looks a bit like Koroma to me, he will run, try a few stupid things, lose the ball but also cause problems, without Koroma that was missing to me.

Surely has to go 4-4-2 now at the weekend
