3 positives that are different.
We performed better than our opposition in every part of the pitch except finishing.
PT 3 subs at once had a positive influence in the match and was the right choice at the right time.
A clean sheet from a formation change that looked more comfortable.

I thought we looked more dangerous before the changes were made. In that case, it's better than we both thought!

3 positives:
- the core of the team (anssi, ehmer, Baldwin, grant, Hanlan) is stable and remains. - PT has selected his formation and seems set on it (4-5-1). - we didn’t lose

Players at this level like to play basic football and that gets you to be a steady mid table team Chuck in a goalscorer and then you look at top 7. He already has implemented the irst bit by keeping it simple and the players looked a lot more at ease last night for it Hanlan or daly last night would have made the chances into goals

I recall GC being derided for playing such a formation. Yet it's pretty effective at this level. Essentially, reduce the number of goals conceded, don't worry about possession statistics and attempt to nick a goal at the other end. Pretty? No. Effective? Yes.

Back to basics, points on the board and build confidence. We have only failed to score in 4 league games all season including the last two. Keep clean sheets and you win games...as the great Johan Cruyff said “if you can’t win, make sure you don’t lose” Points per clean sheet on average range from 1.5 to 2.35 per game

I guess it depends on the makeup of the middle 5. If it includes Westbrooke, Nicholson and 1 of Barrett/Oztumer/McCormick alongside Upson and Grant then that could still be quite attacking - especially behind Hanlan up top. From last night my concern is the two fullbacks in a flat back four, neither Leahy or Hare have any pace. Whilst Little isn’t overly quick himself his positional play will be better than Hare and on the other side Tutonda perhaps needs to be persevered with and work really hard on his defending and positional play.

Out of interest - could Rodman play RB?

But in a flat back 4 it's not so vital that the full backs push up as far as in a back 3 with wing backs. I thought we looked alot more solid albeit against kids who couldn't pass back to the player taking the throw in. Tutonda is a player I think we need to get shot off as he is 25/26 and should be able to defend better than he does. I think he got overhyped after a couple of good games and we have better with Leahy and Kolki. Mark Little will be a huge asset if we can get him fit for more than 3 games and would make our defensive unit so much more solid.

Out of interest - could Rodman play RB? That’s a good question and IMO he probably could. He can defend reasonably well and is very good in the air - might be a natural positional change for the twilight years of his career. I’d be more confident with him than Hare at the moment to be honest.

Tisdale will have plenty of time to coach him as he still seems to be a way off full fitness but a great shout to play him at RB when available.

I would agree if we were playing a flat back four with a midfield four including two old fashioned wingers in front of them. If the formation is otherwise narrow then the fullbacks need to push on (not as much as wingbacks) and the protection comes from having two holding midfielders. A fully fit Little is a big miss if we are sticking with four at the back. Painful situation at left back where three out of four are not suited to a flat four!

The left back situation is baffling im sure they were looking to push LL out even if they said they were not. AK is still very young so plenty of time to adapt to play in a back 4 and has pace and power. In time he could be the answer but in the present Leahy has to play in a back 4.

It’s a bit like the striker situation I suppose. BG builds a squad for formations with 1 striker so having just 3 in the squad makes a certain amount of sense. Not so good when a new manager comes in and wants to play 2 strikers! BG wanted a squad to play 5 at the back so has attacking type fullbacks to play as wingbacks. Not so good if a new manager comes in wanting to play a flat back four!
