Same as ‘normal’ - box midfield with the ball, 4-2-3-1 out of possession.

We went 5-3-2 for the last quarter or so.

I was very disappointed that their possession percentage was much better than ours. And what's more we received more yellow cards than the opposition, which happens almost every game. So I'm not that happy.

Well done RW & the team today great performance and great result, some might say RW justified his EFL cup selection v Brentford midweek.
Back to back league wins for The O’s, and out the bottom 4 💪🏻

In RW we trust 💪🏻
Enjoy tonight everyone, hopefully we won’t have any negative posts on here

Goals win games not possession!
How many times have we had majority possession and lost?

I haven’t seen much of the last two games but seems like a week off gave Richie some time to think and tinker and moving Clare into midfield seems to be the trigger for more balance and a better spine?
Plus the goalkeeper playing a lot better. Yes moving Clare into midfield and Currie playing at Left back has improved Os so much.
Also Ball looking a good signing and Warrington got some league minutes under his belt today.
Ok great result today but best not get too carried away and still a long way yet to go.
Fixed the problem LB position with Currie
Fixed the inexperienced / weak CM with Clare & Ball

Will be good to see the highlights of this one, was either / both of the Galbraith goals his signature sweetly hit bangers?

According to the BBC first one on 12th minute ''Goal! Stockport County 0, Leyton Orient 1. Ethan Galbraith (Leyton Orient) right footed shot from the centre of the box to the top left corner. Assisted by Tom James with a cross''
Then 2nd goal on 17th minute ''Goal! Stockport County 0, Leyton Orient 2. Ethan Galbraith (Leyton Orient) left footed shot from the centre of the box to the bottom left corner''

Every season, we seem to have one fantastic away performance, last season it was away to Portsmouth, and today ranked along with that.

What I really enjoyed today, was how efficient we were in front of goal. Usually the few chances we make, we are very wasteful, but today we were fantastic in front of goal all four goals were great to see, especially the fourth which really wrapped the game up for us.

How did Sean Clare get the ball in the net from that angle ... unbelievable.

We are now out of the bottom four, and I hope we can win against Peterborough on Tuesday to push us even further up the league after that terrible start.

Wonderful

Good finishing for all our goals. The first one where Clare sees the danger and intercepts the loose ball is exactly what we've been needing since El Miz left.

Well I for one am happy for us to continue getting more yellow cards as it’s as near to a free hit as you can get in a bet builder.
