Have we been on Sky since this fixture last season(in the league, we were against Villa but cant remember other times which seems odd for a club of our size).
If its 352 with MJ plus another then we really can have no moans about low blocks, time wasting, dark arts. We need to get an early goal to stop all that in its tracks.
Personally I understand why Ian may go for it. At home it has worked well enough. But Saturday has shown me that we could be much much better.
Trafford
Jones Santos Johnston Iredale
Bradley Morley John
Kachunga Charles Dapo
451 433. As I say all the same to me. Know controvery comes from DJ more in the middle, just think him and Dapo overlapping, decoy runs, etc would be exciting.
You may say we dont have a DM in there. Fair enough but its Burton. Lets bloody go for it. Early goals will kill this game.

Hasselbaink came for a point last time and he got it and if memory serves me right, had a perfectly good goal rules out
Dino Maamria is in the seat now and if plays anything like the Leigh RMi side he once played in. that we’re once managed by a friend of mine Steve Waywell, we could be in for a bit of a battle
Hope Evatt plays the side that finished v AccyStan but I can’t see it

Home to our Bogey side.
I expect to win this match comfortably but I have said that on the 7 previous meetings with Burton. Seven matches – 2 draws, 5 defeats – what an awful record.
It will be interesting to see what side we start with tonight.
Saturday proved the need for Afolayan to start in an attacking role on the left but if we do that how do we fit Bradley back into the team?
Do we play 3-5- 2 or 4-4-2?
It a quandary but a good one for the manager to have.
I want to see a fast attacking performance. There was too much slow build up from the back in the Barnsley game. Possession is fine but move forward with pace.
Tonight’s the night that we kill off the Burton curse – a 3-0 win.

Think he can play the opposite side to Dapo in a 3 pronged attack. Or the right side in a flat 3. Cant quite explain why we have such a bad record. They are the Brewers. Maybe they bring us free samples. |

Probably because our players have delusions of grandeur in that, they believe it’s a god given right to be beating these unknown recent league additions from our mini Wembley Reebok and since Evatt got the hot seat, we’ve faced Barrow, Cheltenham, Crawley, Salford, Harrogate, FGR, Stevenage and Morecambe and not done all that well against them

Played 23 - Won 12, drawn 7 and lost 4. A bit better than "not done all that well against them"!! |

Lets bloody go for it. Early goals will kill this game. I’d go with that side OM, other than I’d replace John with George because however one dimensional you might believe Burton will be, we still need some steel in there. Also, I’d doubt we’ll see John again after his obvious dissatisfaction at being replaced recently. I think things are wrong there and I expect him to be gone in January. I might be wrong of course but it seems that way to me. In fact from what I can gather, their new manager seems to be trying to make a Burton more of a footballing team and it seems to be working so maybe we’re doing Burton a disservice considering they’ll come and try to bombard them? We might be surprised? |

Theres something not quite right with DJ at the moment but would love to see him and Dapo given freedom on that left. |

That pitch is gonna do my eyes in
I’ll not know if it’s a goal or a try⚽️🏉 😬😬
Still say we should start with the side that won the 2nd half in the last game

Opinions davidm So there’s 11 games where we’ve failed to beat these relative newcomers in recent times, but I’ll eat my humble pie for getting the stats wrong You do see my point though? |

Shot shy
Shocking ball control
Shocking set pieces
If Charles wasn’t on the pitch, I wouldn’t know
Come on lads, how hard can it be

Go away Evatt. Dont know a gift horse when you see one.
Miles better without you putting the handbreak on us.

Absolute rubbish,how bad are we in the opponents half, it’s just embarrassing, can’t pass, no composure and the final ball is just woeful. We just carry absolutely no threat up front at all and has Evatt forbidden them from shooting, just trying to walk the ball in and when we do shoot we just never hit the target. It really is awful to watch because you just know what’s going to happen. I can see Burton nicking this despite the fact they’re a poor team and if we had anything at all up front the game would be over now. Just a lot of work running around but with zero penetration in the opposition box. Get Lee on quick because at least he might add a bit of composure to proceedings and open up something to score from because this bunch could play until Christmas and not score. Yet again their keeper hasn’t had a single shot to save.

I actually think those players need a bloody good rollicking in that dressing room and Evatt should get one from Brittan
Apart from FGR, Burton have leaked 29 goals, 2nd worst in the league and we’ve not tested them once
Could easily see this ending 0-1

Notts County 6 -0 up and that Langstaff kid has scored again.
Crickey, even Chicksen (remember him) has scored a brace
We didn’t do that bad the last time we stole a manager from NC!! At least his teams score plenty of goals
