You could see when they lined up from Wednesday goal kicks that Khan was alongside Walker.

That was just to stop them playing out though. Walker, Khan and Mellis were guarding a CB each.

Dean and I debated this during commentary. On balance overall we felt Khan was further forward than you suggest, but there was fluidity. You could also argue that Bishop was deeper than Mellis. And anyway, Rob doesn't like it when the formation is broken down too far

Formations always make me laugh, its still 11 stags players on the pitch and they don't ever stay in one position ever, imagine if they did it would be hilarious "Mal why didn't you chase that ball down over there" "It was on the right, I'm left back pal"

Of all the formations on this thread, that’s the one we definitely didn’t play!
