Please please don't play wing backs away at Bournemouth

After Brentford so clinically took advantage of our wing backs bombing on and not tracking back there were signs in the following game at Ipswich that Sami told them to sit a few yards deeper to deny space while still bombing on when possible. At that time Ipswich were on a roll and scoring for fun. Sami also played Ince and Holla together for a bit more defensive protection, plus CMS and Baldock played together up front with KLL sitting behind them. We gave the Tractor Boys a decent game and were very unlucky not to get a couple of goals. The difference was their crosses were excellent while ours were poor and the Ipswich keeper played a blinder. We were a tad unlucky.

I do not understand why Sami did not persevere with that formation - yet he has drifted back to the Brentford formation. Hence we are neither here nor there.

Exactly what we should do against AFCB playing CMS and Baldock pressed Ipswich back into their own box and they only got forward when CMS was taken off so if he is fit that is the team and formation required.
