Why change a winning team?

I don't get it,surely you need to know your first 11 and have a settled team to bring success. This will be oles downfall in my opinion.
Brayford & jones on the bench?
I'm not overreacting about our loss at wolves as shit happens and we will lose games throughout the season as expected.

I don't agree that he shouldn't have changed the team but I thought the changes made were odd.
Our best player this season has been Brayford in my opinion and to replace him with Connolly is strange.

To go with the two little men upfront wasn't going to work either, unless you are a good passing teams it won't won't and we are not.

Why aren't we a good passing team? We should be.

Im not sure what the answer is to that tbh, that could be said of any team. I think its more to do with the way we set up rather than the ability to pass.

For example Barca could play two small players upfront, us in the championship away from home I think he silly.
