Nah I reckon it’s a 4-4-2 diamond with Skuse at the base.

I don't at all. 352 as a system is not one I favour these days at all.

I wonder if it will be more like the old WM formation and Skuse will be shoulder level with the wingbacks until we break. Then he steps back between the CB's when we defend.

Would have thought Huws and Nolan are the wrong way around too. At least the players we have for this are fairly well balanced. Ironic to see Judge dropped the second we play a 10.

Sticking our two most immobile CBs on the outside of the 3 is, er, an idea.

Feel this is going to go the classic 'one of two ways' - it suits our midfielders and we really grasp the game and overpower MK or it's too unusual and uncomfortable for us and we struggle to make an impression on the match.

Either way, that middle 3 is a bit naughty at this level really.

	Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand.

4-4-2 hasn’t been working. This gets a good balance and also gets Kenlock out so ....

I’m liking this but we’ll see

It needed shaking up that’s for sure.

Was looking at a 1-0 defeat tonight , now I think a point is minimum

Not that I want to question the media people at the club... or Lambert... but wouldn’t 4-4-2 narrow diamond make more sense with the players on the pitch, rather than having Skuse as a makeweight centre back?

KVY - Chambers - Wilson - Garbutt

Skuse

Downes - Huws

Nolan

Norwood - Jackson

If so I’m really interested to see how this plays out. Strong looking bench too.

Really? Garbutt has been out injured and will have loads of grass to cover. MK play this sort of shape so we're matching up away. I'd have said there was nothing to suggest we'd lose based on form of both teams.

This is far more risky tactically in my opinion. While 442 hasn't been great to watch, we've been unbeaten and getting goals from it. I think this plunges us into complete unknowns and we could smash them or get taken to task!

Edwards and Judge have been largely passengers so they can have no complaints. You wonder, though, how fit Huws and Garbutt are.

Was thinking the same re Judge.

Yeah that seems almost cruel.

Not picking Woolfenden seems odd too, tailor made for one of the wide CB slots.

Because playing 4-4-2 recent we’ve had some amazing performances ? I’d say no.

Think we’re quite fortunate to find ourselves where we are

If the formation has a number 10 behind front 2 I would have Judge in there , not Nolan . It's judge's best position and I thought Nolan failed to make any impact on Saturday when he came on . Nice to see Garbutt in though

I agree - it does seem odd that we’ve benched Judge the night that we actually have a formation which might suit him! Especially as Nolan has hardly been in sparkling form since his return from injury.

Same here.

There’s a fair bit of unfamiliarity in there (players and system) but looks like there’s more quality in that 11.

And the bench is also loaded for a complete change of system if it doesn’t work.
