Don’t play chambers at centre back, we be okay then slows the play down so much just invites the press.

I believe he played against port vale and Stockport so it’s evident that against a high press he can’t start???

We will see I ain’t a football manager so wouldn’t know :D

Surely murphy has seen enough of murphy in that position by now, those 2 games were noted by most fans if chambers plays we struggle he gets caught out, and he is not a bruiser in the tackle simples.

Totally agree.

I hope at least one of Lawlor or Osho pass their fitness test so one of them can play alongside Fish.

If not, I would even start Ng at CB ahead of Chambers.
