So the reason we are playing so bad is because Iandolo is not on the pitch..  Jesus wept..

He’s played in all the other home games where we’ve been poor….  It’s less personnel and more general tactics and set up at home.

I don’t think we’ve been this poor though. The last couple of home games we’ve been the better side. This has been wank

It’s no doubt contributed.
As him being out the team has changed the formation and balance.

I’ll keep up with things on here. Can’t bring myself to actually watch this tripe.

Maybe I’ll peep in if we get a goal back

I agree that Kaine needs to come on, but I have no idea whether he can play on the left. I think Payne and Williams don't work together. I'd take one of those two off, put Kaine on the right and put Gladwin more central.

I have no issue with the back four decision, or keeping Odimayo as right back, but you can't have both Odimayo and Hunt as your full backs.  In that situation you have to have Iandolo as left back if you think you need Odimayo's height.  Or you have Hunt for defensive cover at left back and have KKH to open up the right wing.  The choice today has closed both flanks down.  Iandolo has been poor at delivery, but his driving presence would at least cause a defender to have to think about it.

Spot on again..

The issue is a compounded one - going back four could have worked, but it needed width from either one of the fullbacks or some midfielders hugging the touchline.  We had everyone narrow and two fullbacks who do not attack well on their respective sides.

The compounding issue is that you selected that back four to defend their threat at set pieces and long balls, fair enough, but then we leave a dwarf marking their flick on man at every set piece.

Any of these alone could be overcome maybe, but all three create the perfect storm.
