Team vs Orient(A)

[Artixbee]

I would start with practically the same lineup as against Colchester, apart from Forrester in place of Saunders. I would also start with Kev over Douglas at the back of the diamond but I think Uwe will opt for Dougie.

Adayemi has to be worth a start.......thought he looked v promising Saturday.

Lee - Legge - Fredericks - Adeyemi - Dave - Saunders - Hayes

Tough choice between KOC and Adeyemi

[The Pipe]

Tough away game where Kev's experience will be required, would prefer him to sit at the base of the diamond in front if the back 4 to give freedom and protection to the fullbacks, Harry to replace Sam and Forrester to replace Dave. Clayton and Farid up front

Asking Harry to replace 2 men is looking for trouble.

[NorthamptonBee]

I would suggest that Harry for Saunders and leave the rest alone, nobody did anything that bad to be benched, Clayton probably closest to Sam for a sit down but is Hayes fit yet?

What are you smoking ?

What are you smoking ?

Fantastic stuff you can get for Pipes these days, import mine from the netherlands!!!!!

Try Harry to replace Sam with Forshaw replacing Dave

Harry replacing Sam I can understand but Forshaw replacing Dave I don't? They both played against Colchester?

I'd given up. He obviously thinks we are going with the old 10 diamond man trick.

[toeneebee]

The only change I would make would be Harry for Sam. Nothing broke so don't fix it..............yet.

[staines_bee]

Still not sure about Craig so I'd have Leon deputise. Maybe Adeyemi in for Douglas or Dave. The rest of the team is fine.

Im giving donaldson , douglas and saunders a rest, not sure what id call this formation, five in defence when defending ,, and five in midfield when attacking , logan/ bidwell acting like wingers,,, also i will leave el aligui or hayes up when defending corners .

[beesbarmyarmy89]

^ I quite like that actually x

[beebopalula]

only one change,Harry for Sam. I hope we start with a quick tempo. This will be a difficult one.

[alexcavell]

Can't say I've ever been impressed by the diamond formation away from home, so I'd switch it to last season's 4-4-1-1. As others have suggested, Forrester probably deserves a go over Saunders. Having said that, I don't think Saunders has been playing poorly - he's just not been as effective so far this season, whereas Forrester might be able to offer something different.

I think we missed O'Connor on Saturday, as when he plays we have better control in midfield and wouldn't have allowed Colchester the numerous chances they had in the first half. O'Connor's presence is probably more important when we play the diamond formation though, and as I wouldn't go with that I'd leave him out. Douglas needs to up his game but can be important for us, so I'd leave him in alongside Diagouraga, who is our only real ball-winning midfielder. Hopefully Adeyemi can pressure him for that role though.

I'd give Forshaw some freedom by playing out wide, allowing Diagouraga and Douglas to do the dirtier work, though he could easily switch positions with Forrester. In defence I haven't been completely impressed by Craig so far and was frustrated by how many times he was beaten in the air on Saturday, but we got the clean sheet so I'd continue with the same centre-back pairing for now.
