442 diamond midfield will really test the fullbacks as they will have to provide the width attacking and defensively, and I fear our midfielders aren't mobile enough to cover those areas.
So he doesn't know his best players or his best formation now, all just in time to play the favourites for the league
It'll be ugly today I fear!
No doubts it'll be ugly. Only question is effecitive-ugly or grotesque-ugly? I'm expecting a right old minger of a match.
Fun fact... According to the line-ups on TransferMarkt, Birmingham have beaten every team, bar the one who played a Diamond Formation against them - They've also only conceded just one goal against teams playing with Wing-Backs.
Whilst they've failed to keep a clean sheet playing anyone else.
Would have been happier if T Campbell was ahead of headless chicken Anderson. Free role behind the front two with the comfort of three defensive midfielders behind him would allow him to potentially cause havoc.
Yeah because he left in the summer on a Free Transfer, he's with Carlisle United now 🙄
Naughty! That's worth another pre-match yellow card!
You know full well that Ross is referring the Scarlet Pimpernel Tel Tayl and not Terry-Ding-Dong-Thomas.
Nah, the worst that'd cause is a bit of mild confusion, where's the FFSs and the YESSSSSs tend to get the heart rate going before you get to the end of the sentence.

Just been chatting to a Birmingham fan who lives locally. It turns out his son is Kanu’s agent, also a Birmingham fan. He said he hoped it is 3-2 to Birmingham with a May hat trick and two goals from Kanu.

With persistent offenders it's often the innocuous offence that draws the booking ...

Don’t mind seeing the diamond, we needed to try something that didn’t rely so heavily on the wing backs. Still a lack of creativity in midfield but we essentially don’t have any truly creative midfielders so it’s almost pointless mentioning that. Anderson will be at the forward point in the diamond I reckon and asked to start the press.
Another major change of formation and personnel, and going to 4 at the back means Gillesphey and Potts don't even make the bench. It does look quite solid, though Kanu and Godden will be feeding off scraps

Same weaknesses as 3-5-2 really, so we they aren’t new potential issues.
Rather he was in there instead of Campbell after his last performance.
Bit harsh on Tyreece. I mean I know he's not a striker, but he's more of one than Taylor.
I think he meant Allan.
*grin* Yeah, that occurred after I'd typed it but before I hit send, but found amusement in the confusion, so did it anyway. And it doesn't say much for the impact Allan has had so far that that was where my brain went despite having already seen him on the teamsheet

(5-3-2) - Huddersfield (1-0) - Wrexham (3-1) - Rotherham (2-0)
(4-2-3-1) - Peterborough () - Wigan (2-1) - Leyton Orient (2-1)
(4-3-3) - Wycombe (3-2)
(Diamond) - Reading (1-1)
Might be deliberate method in the madness from Jones today.
Teacher's pet all of a sudden!
😉🤣
Or is this a whoosh
Anderson will go off to be replaced by Tyreece leaving us with an AC/TC pairing at half-forward.
Will we be Thunderstruck or will it be Hell's Bells, It's A Long Way To The Top?
Anderson & A Campbell? FFS 🤦🏻♀️
