It's easier to blame the players, I would countenance that they have had to play different systems under different managers, since they have been at the club. They are still young,they saw that last was successful and would have hoped for a continuation of this, albeit with a different coach. Now they have a coach who wants to play another system without really strengthening the squad. The Board must take some responsibility, as they employed someone who was going to change the style of play yet again. All the progress of last year is quickly evaporating.

For me, even when we started last night with 3 at the back, we were playing 3 4 2 1.
I surmised that the 2 were supposed to link the play to Woodrow and the wing backs were supposed to overlap and get the ball into the box.
Styles either was making a point that he doesn't want to go back to playing wing back as he was poor until we switched to 4 3 3, or simply had a poor game, and Brittain passed backwards from the final third so many times I found him to be the most frustrating player on the pitch.
Add to that how deep Benson was picking the ball up between the centre backs and we had no penetrative through the Luton midfield or back line, and everyone we had a shot there were already 8 Luton players back in their penalty area to block a shot or tackle our player.
I'd sooner Schopp abandons this hybrid tactic of Ismael's formation (loosely) and his way of playing and just imprints a new style/tactics on the team. Perhaps this is going on behind closed doors in training and in a game or two's time we'll see something completely different. But based on our two home games, and to a lesser extent the Bolton game (I didn't see Cardiff) were going to score very few goals this season even if Woodrow finds his best playing form and the Belgians are amazing. Were just not getting the ball in the right areas at the right time.

It’s hard to score goals when the front 3 have for the majority of the game there backs to goal.
