So is our summer recruitment complete? I hope we go with 3-5-2 all of our successful seasons in recent times have been with 3 centre backs.

............................DUKE..................................

..........LANGMEAD....DIAMOND....ROBERTSON/COLLINS...........

HACKETT/ALFRI.........RAVENHILL....CARTER.............HORWOOD

..................................O'TOOLE...............................

..........................RICHARDS....TONEY/NICHOLLS/SINCLAIR..................

So subs to be four from the above plus, Snedker, Tozer, Mohamed, Morris,

Is it just me or does this look a decent team!!!!!

The problem with 3-5-2 is that it could potentially restrict the influence of Hackett, who remains by far and away our most creative player IMO. 


Personally, I'd like to see us try a 4-3-3 formation with overlapping full backs, which is what most of the top sides in Europe use these days:

                                 Duke

                 Alfei Diamond Collins/Langmead Horwood

                            Carter       Ravenhill

                                  O'Toole

                         Hackett  Richards  Toney/Sinclair/Nicholls/Mohammed


I suspect, however, that Wilder will change the formation fairly regular according to the opposition and the venue. I also suspect that we'll stick with what we've got for the time being, unless things start badly on the goalscoring front in which case CW will move for a Jacob Blyth-type loanee targetman.

3-5-2 would suit us perfectly, Hackett would be fine, in that system you require 1-2 disciplined holding centre midfielders, which we have.

 Dead right Sir about 3-5-2 and it isn't just you, I am by no means sure about Sinclair though.
