Apologies to Jack Stevens, force of habit!STEVENS signs new contract and you want him between the sticks and on the bench - lol
The result is one thing, but tomorrow I’ll be looking at how we play and the way in which we set up. If it’s very disjointed and markedly out of character, I think it’ll be quite obvious what’s happened. I hope that it’s being treated as just another game against a team in the bottom half that we’re looking to win.
What’s odious about them? They took over a failing Wimbledon whose fans weren’t there to support them. Now MK have a fan base that has been brought up on football in their own town and these kids are now adults. I don’t get the hate they receive.We haven't scored in the last three games. We've never scored at Stadium MK, forgive me for not being optimistic.
I'd love to beat this odious franchise, makes be angry how many of their shirts you see round north Oxon these days. This is our patch!
Not wanting to open a can of worms around this fixture again, but there are ways of doing things. A long time ago though, I have no feelings one way or another about them now. Just another side to try and get 6 points from over the season.What’s odious about them? They took over a failing Wimbledon whose fans weren’t there to support them.

Yep; exactly this. Very hard to predict and I wouldn’t be surprised at a heavy defeat or a 3-0 win. Midfield is the key tomorrow. Start like we have been starting recently and we’re in trouble. Get at them early and they are.I think we're in a post-window tinkerman trough so I won't be surprised at any outcome from this one. Thank F the defence seems to pick itself.
Midfield has been very weak and a bit passive since McGuane got injured, it needs a bit of pace and steel ahead of Gorrin. Not sure where that will come from with Brannagan out of form.
The front line is firing on 1 cylinder with no support evident for the front man and both 'recognised' wingers leave us light when defending (tho Shodipo does try). Maybe it's time for a change up front and Agyei off the bench would at least offer something different. Since that won't happen, maybe Lee at the front of the diamond with Taylor ahead (Winnall seems to me to offer nothing that Taylor's not better at), and one winger starting?
Who has the energy and pace we need in midfield? A fit Brannagan perhaps would. Maybe Hanson has a role as we defend so poorly in front of the defence but he's unreliable with the ball and a bit purpose less off it.
Tricky one.
I don’t think we can play those two together for any length of time, they’re too flaky. Not that I have any radical improvements to suggest. The players have mainly been as bad as each other in the last two games, it’s more about collective approach and confidence than picking on individuals.I'd like to see Barker and Shodipo start together, if Robbo is willing to try that. I fear we will lose, just hoping for a better performance. The last two have been atrocious imo.
I think it would be an interesting experiment. In terms of raw talent Barker is our best playerI don’t think we can play those two together for any length of time, they’re too flaky.
