Looks like it'll be 5 at the back to me but having effectively 4 wingers stating and not at at RWB seems a little unbalanced.

Such creativity to go along with our most productive attacking 3. We should score a hatful today....Quote:

I’ve given up analysis on the starting XI. It’s just not worth it.
so likely
Alnwick
Chambers Goutas Daland
Rinomhota Ralls Siopis O'dowda
El Ghazi Meite Willock
but possibly
Alnwick
Chambers Goutas Daland O'dowda
Ralls Siopis Rinomhota
El Ghazi Meite Willock
Hope we play Meite in the middle.Quote:

The Wales Online match blog is (once again) not a Wales Online blog - but this time a StokeonTrentLive blog.
A Wales Online banner but all the content is from the Stoke local media.

Have Wales Online completely given up? I know they don't attend many away matches any more, but I thought they blogged from one of the audio commentary providers (club or BBC Wales). Seems not.
They have also stopped doing live coverage of the pre-match press conferences and just do a few 'after the event' mop up stories.
At the same time the club are providing less media (in fact communication in general) than in previous years.
Yep sums things up wellQuote:

Our defence has a handful stopping Callum Chambers scoring own goals or giving away penalties.Quote:

Yes it’s noticeable they’ve given up on a lot of their coverage. Not covering the press conferences seem particularly poorQuote:

Decent start , Meite and Willock have started well but seems to be plenty of space out wide behind our back 3
Ahh bollocks
Alnwick should have done better there surely?
They had way too much time and space to take the shot and then Alnwick made a mess of it. We do seem to be moving the ball a bit quicker, that's the only positive so far.
Really poor goal, Sio far too deep and turns his back, any decent defensive midfielder closes that down. Ralls also to slow to get to him. Alnick maybe should have done better.
No idea why Daland is playing on the right and chambers on leff, makes no sense.
Looked miles offside, but replays show it was the right decision and it’s 1-1!
3 or 4 times now Willock has missed a clear pass. O"Dowda outstanding so far.
I didn't think you could be offside from the opposition playing the ball , obviously wrong?Quote:

Looked onside from the initial shot from Ralls, and then you had the 2 deflections. Perfect from El Ghazi - wide man coming in around the far post from the attack on the opposite side.
Has to be played deliberately Jimmy.Quote:

Decent 1st half display. We look much more comfortable when we have space..
He seems to be more effective running from deep in to the space, rather than maybe from a standing start further up the pitch.Quote:

O Dowda likes the game in front of him, he's better when he has a "Bigger picture" he's not a player who does his best work recieving the ball with his back to goal. Incidentally, it's much easier to play when the whole game is In front of you.Quote:

Rubin on.
Hopefully will have a positive impact.
Goal
1 - 2
o.g.

Get in there.
I’ve been impressed by Willock today.
