I've got a feeling there'll be at least two or three changes for next Saturday. He showed faith with the side that got a great results at Carlisle and Hartlepool and that decision blew up in his face.

Surely the problem is that he hasn't got the players to play the way he wants to, which is why they ended  at 3-5-2 with lots of defenders in the team. We simply haven't got the forward thinking players of sufficient skill levels to do anything other than play the way we are doing. It has brought a bit of success but Exeter exposed our deficiences because they were smarter and quicker than us, just as they have been at many away grounds this season. At home when we have more of the ball and are expected to attack, the shortcomings in the team are ruthlessly exposed. It's a lot simpler to go away from home, sit back and let the opposition try to break you down. We have done to Carlisle and Plymouth what Exeter did to us. I wouldn't think that we'd be playing 3-5-2 if we had skillful wingers and creative midfielders and i don't think that is MB's preferred way of playing. It's currently the best of the bad options is my take on it.
