    3 games in and Bowyer already getting pelters. Got to try something at this stage, not like any other of the formations was keeping us up anyway.

    O'Brien looks like he needs a rest, has looked off the pace for a few games now.

    He does. And if we're playing two up front and therefore some kind of 4-4-2 formation, O'B is at his least effective when being played out wide.

    It's another example of how we managed to create a very lop-sided squad during the transfer window - no width and little pace in the squad.

    Easy, when the ref blows his whistle Anderson will start moving like the other players do.

    Agree don't mind him being rested.

    Maybe, moving Clarke up top and moving Ball into midfield.

    I would of rather Wright for Anderson though. Anderson needs to up his game today.

    Let us see if this line-up can create a few chances today then but not that impressed to be honest.

    O'Brien has been fantastic for us so far, so hopefully he can re-charge and go again.

    Lots of midfielders on the bench but next to no defenders, interesting.

    That data looks sound, do think though there isn't enough data on Bowyer-led Bradford. I'm going for City to win today, as the extremely limited data does look good.

    Shouldn't forget he's relatively young and it's his first full season as a full time pro in a first team. Not surprising he's tiring.

    It's OK mate. He's about to change his boots. Hopefully he'll transform into Messi.

    Any wayward pass - of which there has already been a few - Tim Steer is blaming it on the wind. Yes it's windy, but it's not blowing a hurricane! He's unbelievable. If it's cold, then he's announcing that everyone should wrap up warm and drink cocoa. If it's raining, he's blaming the pitch for through balls that don't come off.

    8 mins in, and it's scrappy, but Oxford are edging it and finding space. Simple football - if it's windy, keep the ball on the deck!

    Doesn't sound like it, sounds like a duff formation.
