I was convinced we went 442 when leadbitter came off for gos.
Looked like 2 banks to me.
Dad said we stayed 352.
If so, sincs was right , lines Clarke mid, gos left....who was the other midfielder.

With Sinclair's work rate it was more like 5-4-2. Would be interesting to put one of those tracker thingies on him and see how much distance he covers in 90 mins. |

Im pretty certain we stayed 3-5-2 throughout. When Leadbitter went off Gosling went out wide right. At half time Clarke changed this putting Sincs out right and moving Gos into the centre, which was what I thought he'd have done to start with.
I thought thought Gos was outstanding in central midfield, moves the ball very quickly, with quality and more often than not forward. My MoM for the second half.

I thought we went 4-4-2 when DL was stretchered off, with Gos right wing, Sincs left wing and JC moving over to right back.
We seemed to lose our shape a bit and Barnet were getting back into the game.
After the break it looked to me like we went back to 3-5-2, with Sinc and Browner deployed as wing-backs, but it was difficult to tell !! :-D
It was quite a fluid formation, with the shape changing when not in possession.
Whatever it was, we re-gained the initiative and played the ball about nicely.

The only time we weren't in control was when we were playing 442 |

Seemed it was an inspired move by DC to play Sinclair as our right sided wing back in the second half, although he had little defensive work to do as Barnet went 3 upfront.
Can he retain the RWB role for Orient or do we revert to 4-4-2, with Clarke at RB?
5-3-2 does seem to bring the best out of Lockyer, O Clarke, Sinclair & Gosling.

Too much Championship Manager on this thread. We didn't "go" 4-4-2, we just had to make a change which meant players had to adapt to new positions, until half time came and they got new instructions.

Really? Purely opinions, people going by what they saw, and as such yours is no different. I previously said it was difficult to tell at times. I believe I saw us line up with 2 rows of 4, between Danny Leadbitter going off and half-time, and quite a few others seem to concur. |

Bit of a tenuous link. 442 and 352 are distinctly different formations. You've seen that first sentance used by others but you haven't applied it correctly here, good luck for next time. |

Was definately 4-4-2 after Leadbitter went off until half time and that was the only period when Barnet looked any good. |

Whether we chose to go to 4-4-2 or just 'drifted' into 4-4-2 we were definately playing 4-4-2 after the sub up to halftime. Thankfully after halftime DC got us back to 3-5-2 except when we were defending and it was 5-3-2 |

Thankfully after halftime DC got us back to 3-5-2 except when we were defending and it was 5-3-2 All that happened was Gosling didn't know what he was doing at right wing back, so he hovered between defence and midfield contributing absolutely nothing. Clarke recognised this and swapped him with Sinclair at half time. No change in formation, just a temporary loss of shape. |
