4-2 win for the stags today.

[Stag95]

Clean sheet would be nice today, but absolutely would take another 3-2.

[gazza1988]

[arsene wengers coat]

Team news in. Jonjo is in midfield today.

Looks a strong side.

Come on stags. 3 points please.

[gazza1988]

Rawson replaces Stirk moving JJ into midfield.

[eggy]

Or 3 at the back?

[Stag95]

White and Menayese starting for them. No Khan though

[gazza1988]

Or 3 at the back?

Or 3 at the back. I do like a back 3.

Just re-read the article that is with it. 1st read I read it as though he'd gone into midfield but it doesn't actually specify. My mistake.

[chip63]

They have him marked down as MF on ifollow, showing a 4-4-2.
It's a very good squad for changing it around as long as we don't get injuries at LB or RB.

3-1 the stags please.

[broomo]

Could be any formation.

Hawks back up top with Bowery and Oates wide. 4-3-3.

Hawks up top with Oates , Bowery right wing 4-4-2.

Or Hawks at the back JJ in central mid and Clarke out wide with Oates and Bowery up top.

I hope it's the 1st one.

[Sedgwick]

Oates please please run at rollin... its one thing he really struggles with. I think a ball over the top for him to run onto can undo these (based on the 4 highlights I watched )

[el ciervo amarillo]

For those of us stuck at home with Covid, any chance of some updates?

[Martian]

No covid here but pleased to hear Final Score actually have someone at the game

[gazza1988]

Playing ok. Had a couple of decent chances. One was cleared just in front of the line.

They had a few dangerous situations.

We keep giving fouls away. Clarke (?) just gave a free kick away of their left touchline. Hawkins clears to Clarke who clears to Oates who runs with it. Plays it to Quinn who crosses and Clark diverts it just past the right post.

[gazza1988]

They've just ran into our box on their right and fired a shot at Bishop who saves well. They have a corner and Bishop claims it.

[BH_Stag]

Stirk missing has cost us a bit. We have lost that bit of energy and intensity out of midfield, and we’ve lost O’Tooles passing out from the back. We’ve not found our rhythm at all.

[oldweststander]

Hawkins, at the back, looks like a fish out of water today.

[Cleveland_Stag]

Put Hawkins up top and put O’Toole at the back please.

[Sedgwick]

Put Hawkins up top and put O’Toole at the back please.

I would while we have JJ and Rawson both fit. Get stirk back in

Proper stop start 45 minutes with a few decent half chances.

[gazza1988]

O'Toole missed barging the Walsall player off the ball and was skipped past. Took a touch past Hawkins who slid to block the ball but got the player. Clear foul. Surprised he's not been booked.

Inces outside the area, a few yards to the right of the "D" from Walsall's point of view. Blasted low and past the left post

HT 0-0. Not really got going.

Charsley or Law on for Bowery to enable Hawkins to go up front and o'toole at the back.

[Conker]

Agreed Hawkins is really worrying at the back at the moment.

[yorkstag]

I assume Stirk is injured. Assume he’s not been recalled

[wink68]

These have done their homework. No high press but no space at all when we get 30 yard from goal. Missing Stirks ability on the ball to unlock things. Need to sort the centre halves out this window. Hawkins isn't a defender and is what we need up top in a game like this when there's no space to play football in.
