Re: vs Forrest thread

Jensen was our Man of the Match for me because of his two top class saves on 11 minutes and 18 minutes.
We could have been 3-0 down when Forest Green scored but for his saves.
It wasn’t a good match with both sides not in good form and with such a poor referee who was just so inconsistent!
The only thing he got right today was the Red Card which allowed us to take a hold on the game.
I could not work out what position Sean Mac was supposed to be playing? Pressley did a lot of the defensive play by running back and across when our opposing wing backs were moving forward with the ball. Once again Longelo was our most attacking player but got another battering! Playing Aaron up front with young Nathan looks a good plan but it needs time to allow a partnership to develop. Time is short though! Great to see Kode Adedoyin back in play and his strength and skill was super and just what we need. Kode and Aaron could be a partnership worth starting with. The current defensive trio is risky I believe. Harvey has developed into a great centre back but both Fernandes and Sangare look somewhat shaky. They are really over exposed because a back three has much greater space between the defenders than a more compact back four. To play a back trio all three need to be very skilful under pressure and have really good positional sense. I would much rather see us play a 4-4-2 formation which can become a 2-4-4 when we are in possession and attacking. Needs very mobile wing backs and wide midfield players who both have the ‘winger’ capability to beat a player like Longelo possesses.
