its like the left and right wing forwards we have in the front 3 aren't good enough in supporting Cole Stockton and why its the formation and system.
against Newport in the 2nd half we went to a 4-4-2 diamond shape midfield with just the really good fullbacks we are blessed with providing the width what suited us.
You do realise we were playing 4-3-3 at the start of the season at the time that Keith has referenced?
On the diamond - we only went to this formation when Toums came on in the 79th minute, after we had already gone ahead.
More generally - I think I disagree that we're too Stockton-centric, if anything we're a bit too Ayunga-centric currently. He's brilliant and dynamic, but seriously needs to improve his decision making. Just tries to leather shots, even when there's a good pass going.
A few people have said we were lucky against Newport - I've only just been able to watch the game, and I really don't think we got lucky. I think we edged a tight game, and a draw probably wouldn't have been unfair. We also had the only actual clear chance of the whole game. Felt we had a good deal of the play, and Newport mainly threatened when catching us off guard occasionally.
but having starting relatively well with a 4-3-3 is it that now that teams have worked us out after being an unknown certainty coming up from L2.?
