I totally agree. 4-4-2 is a totally outdated system that doesn’t work in modern day football. Games are won and lost in midfield, especially in the Championship. For me, the present 3-5-2 or 4-2-3-1 are the best formations. At the moment we can only play 3 at the back.

Good points again my friend. I disagree with one point though. Rhodes won’t work with Nuhiu. There is zero pace there and Rhodes doesn’t have any actually ball skills like say a Hooper does. Nuhiu and Joao are way above Rhodes in the pecking order for me now which is something I never thought I’d say. Don’t think Jordan will be here next season. There will be many takers too even if it’s only a loan.

He’d have double that if he’d been kept on the wing.

I get what you are saying here but I would also argue that either one of Joao or Nuhiu are better than Rhodes up top on their own. They are also better as a pair so I think my point stands regardless.

Nuhiu or Joao for me. Have provided the most thrills this season and proved everybody wrong. Not their fault Coco didn’t pick them. Please don’t vote for Reach everyone just because he’s played in every game. He has improved massively but has been poor since he moved centrally. That was proven with how well he played at right wing back at the weekend.

Is that harsh? Wasn’t meant nastily, he just hardly touched the ball that’s all. Maybe a 6?

Dawson 6 Hunt 7 Venancio 6 solid bit awful distribution Lees 8 Pudil 8 Boyd 7 very good movement for his goal Pelupessy 8 excellent Bannan 8 Reach 7 excellent assist Forestieri 8 Rhodes 6 Nuhiu 6 Joao 7 Kirby 5 Overall very good. Some sloppy play in places but a good team performance. It’s interesting how much more dangerous we looked with Nuhiu/ Joao than with Rhodes. Jordan actually did ok but he doesn’t have the same impact as the other two. Also, Connor Kirby looked about 12!

Such a solid defender. His passing though, especially today was diabolical. I like him. Just depends on the price for me.

I’d have him on the bench against Norwich on the last day. Bring him on in the last few minutes. Lad deserves a good send off. Been an total professional for us and will be missed in the dressing room.

Isn’t Dawson about 3 inches taller than Wildsmith? Did you get them mixed up?

No he’s not. Better than Joe but not Westwood.

A decent solid performance with a great score line. Thought we were poor in places but 3 excellent goals. Would settle for that every week. Forestieri is just absolute class. Reading tho...beyond woeful!

Reach has been crap for two months. Not voting for him! Atdhe or Lucas for me. Not their fault Coco didn’t pick them earlier in the season.

Totally agree. Those are the 3 positions in desperate need. I would also add a new right sided defender to challenge Hunt as Palmer is pants and someone with a bit of pace up front.

This is the cb I really want us to sign. Good on the ball and strong in the tackle. Much better than van Aken, Pudil and Thorniley.
