Ahead of tomorrow night’s match away at Shrewsbury Town in League One, I asked the Vital Lincoln City members what three things they think The Imps need to do to pick up all three points.
You can discuss what has been said in this article HERE, as well as many other topics on our 100% Imps forum! We have also published a Lincoln City v Shrewsbury Town Quiz, which can be found just below the three things. Every page view helps raise money for Lincoln City Football Club!
Here’s what Rasenimp said:
1. Avoid silly mistakes. It was Montsma I think who made a mistake against them the first time around in the league game; we had Poole (and arguably Lewis, Rogers) switching off against Hull. This time of the season is when we need to play almost no mistakes football, we can’t afford to give them a freebie.
2. Probably let them come on to us a little bit. We had that ridiculous game against them at our place where we had about three-quarters of the ball but couldn’t break them down and had a lot of possession for possession’s sake. Some different personnel I am sure but in the Checkatrade game where we got Brennan etc to have a bit of space, we annihilated them. If the game is like an away game rather than us completing dictating play from the back with them sat in, I think we’ll have a better chance.
3. Want it more. Shrews are now safe and could look a bit like they’re on the beach if we get at them – it’s a bigger game for us than them. I think Hull caught us out early on Saturday with the ferocity of their challenges, their physicality, and their pressing. Our young lads need to stand up to any strong stuff and assert themselves on the game from minute 1.
