Part of the trouble, far too predictable with our formation, it's simply 4-3-3 or 3-5-2.

Only time I remember us 3-5-2 was Wrexham and even then it was more 3-4-3

It doesn’t matter what formation we play if our players are not good enough

With our best depth at CB and virtually no wingers available, maybe we should do 532, making sure the wingbacks get high up the pitch

That’s a good idea and worth a try because nothing else seems to be working

As much as I dislike that formation as a general rule (given it's rather negative) the assets we do have are at the back.

Playing every game like the Rotherham one kicking and scratching our way to 3 points looks our best bet the way it's going. Win ugly.
