    Assuming Gerhard is off, would you rather we carried on with the same gegenpress style and found a coach who fit the bill, or tried something else?

    I'd say stick, as that is what the squad has been assembled to do.

    We do need a plan B though & if we don't sign a decent striker to partner either Woodrow or Chaplin & sort out our lousy set piece taking we'll be fighting the drop again.

    The board will find a coach that will continue with the pressing style.
    It wouldn't make any sense not to

    A high pressing style that doesn't involve playing a diamond formation would get my vote. Plus a target man, wingers, and centremids who aren't all left footed.

    I would agree but I still don't think we have the midfield, left wing back or strike force to play this system

    Odour on the left? TBH Jordan has done OK & Thomas might be an option too.

    I think Styles will keep improving. Hope Romal will get a chance at some stage. Thought Mowatt did OK today.

    To be honest this season i dont think we have been pressing and showing too much energy. In fact we look lethargic and slow. Not sure what it is in our coaching or prep or whether players are tired

    Thought Mowatt was a cart horse today offered next to nothing for me and that shot he had 2nd half summed him up .

    I don’t understand why Oduor is not starting, but having said that, Williams doesn’t deserve to be dropped. He’s been solid so far.
