Assuming Ralph is fit

………………..Seaden
………..Hobson White Ralph
Egbri Ogogo Ferguson Phillips Bridge
…………….Dalby Rush

Subs: Sayers, Dunne, Walsh, Murphy, O. Coker

Think Borehamwood play a 3-5-2 so they won’t cause us the problems with our shape down the flanks that Daggers did when they had 2 v 1 on the flanks. If we go with only 2 in central midfield we’ll get overrun so our choice is 3 at the back or one up front.

Murphy looked flat on Saturday and livelier when he was a sub. Rush is a pain to play against.

Or we could try causing Boreham Wood some problems by making it 2v1 down their flanks? I just don't want to see Egbri or Bridge as wing-backs. It doesn't work. If he were to do it with Howard and Ralph then maybe, but we might need one or both of those 2 in the middle.

The problem v Daggers wasn’t so much Bridge and Egbri as wing-backs but the fact they got isolated. That’s more on their team-mates not supporting them (and presumably the fact that the new management team has not had enough time to work on the shape they want). If you do it with Howard and Ralph it will be 5 at the back. The bigger issue isn’t the wing-backs but the midfield. That is where most of this side’s problems emanate. Restoring Phillips should help a little and maybe Ogogo is better for getting 90 minutes under his belt.
 
Have we had any update on Arnold? I know he broke/dislocated his finger a few weeks ago but he played on. Maybe he shouldn't have and is resting as a result of it. Need him back asap!

I really don't think he'll change the team too much. Maybe Phillips for Dunne.

I still don't know why we can't play a back four if Ralph is fit. Push Bridge into midfield. This wingback nonsense has to go!

If I see Atkinson start, I'm going back to the pub, sideways, slowly, with my head down!

Arnold was back in training today.

Amen on Atkinson.
 
Lost already! These players are just not of professional standard!! Would love to be proven wrong!
 
Unfortunately I see a 2-0 loss.

Players aren't up to standard.
