Schlupp is not injured, it was rumoured he had a 'personnel' issue, what, is anybody's guess. This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

Originally posted by PatrickA The system of 343 or 3421 puts a lot of onus on the two central midfield players. I don't mind Hughes, but don't think he's capable of being one of the two, even as a substitute. He can't get around the field enough Wharton seems to have a tendency to tire with his influence waning as the game goes on; understandably as he's inexperienced at this level. If Lerma gets a yellow earlier in a game this can inhibit him in an attempt to avoid a red. Essentially we can be overrun in midfield leaving the defence exposed in the latter stages. If we stick with the current system and are ahead we may need to consider tweaking the system in the second half with the inclusion of an additional midfield player as a substitute. Woeful positioning from Hughes in relation to Spurs 2nd goal. He was in no mans land for the throw, should of been behind the player nearest to him, in front of goal. Made it way too easy to move it forward from there. Didn't have the foresight/speed to get there at all. That said this was only one incident of clown defending yesterday. Badly need somebody to organise the team at the back. At least Ward looked vociferous at times. Luton will be a very hard test as they will have a right old go at our defence. If we panic like yesterday here it may be an ugly day for us. “ [T]here are known knowns; there are things we know that we know.There are known unknowns; that is to say there are things that, we now know we don't know.But there are also unknown unknowns – there are things we do not know we don't know. ” —United States Secretary of Defense, Donald Rumsfeld

Next season we won’t get away with a small squad and late game fitness problems.

We are 'Birds on the same twig' on this matter. Luton will be a severe test with their aerial presence and physicality in forward areas.Both Anderson and Ward will be very much second-best having to cope with the power of Carlton Morris and Elijah Adebayo. Alfie Doughty has a wand of a left foot and his delivery at set-pieces could cause us gargantuan problems.

Once the Luton game is out of the way and with 3 weeks break to train I really think we will see a sharper fitter team against Forest and Bournemouth. Fitness side of things you can't really fix at this stage of the season improve slightly yes but not do as he is asking. No after a match you do recovery.

I'll join you on this twig if there is space. The one bright spot is Adebayo has a hamstring injury and he may be unavailable. He's the type of centre forward we really struggle to deal with. The key will be to avoid giving away corners and set pieces and stopping the crosses. Doughty is a very accomplished deliverer of the ball. Aside from this, Barkley has had a career resurgence and I'd be tempted to man mark him even though this tactic has gone out of fashion. They do have weaknesses which we can exploit but I can't see is keeping a clean sheet against them. Originally posted by Willo We are 'Birds on the same twig' on this matter.
