Eddie Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 2 hours ago, Mounts Kipper said: At least he can run and defend unlike Taylor. I’d strongly question that he can do either of those things. Taylor is no world beater, in fact he’s pretty shite but Beevers is a poor centre back with absolutely none of the qualities to play left back, luckily I don’t think it’s even a possibility that he will play there. Olkowski Wheater Hobbs Taylor - is a strong enough back 4 to stay up (although I reckon we’ll get a left back in Jan), just not when they are facing attack after attack for 90 minutes like they have been over the past 10 games.

Or even 2 strikers both scoring in the same game from open play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It comes to something when a player who can potentially score and create is considered a luxury. Absolute necessity to me if we want to score a goal, along with Ameobi.

But highlights are totally misleading. They don’t show the 25 mins in the second half where he barely got near the ball. I’d love him to prove me wrong though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d love him to prove me wrong though yeah, I get that, and we probably created fuck all of note in that 25 mins as well - we had plenty of the ball last week but fuck all happened in the final third more often than not there's a reason we're bottom (or top) of the tables relating to goals, shots, chances etc - but it's not because we're carrying him or anything like that, we'd probably be worse off in that sense I guess the counter argument is if you are going to have 30% percent possession you're better off with someone who can tackle and press more, win it back then give it to a winger to hoof it in, not fer me though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farrelli Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 At least Magennis knows where the net is. Donaldson had a gilt edged chance first half vs Hull and put it ten foot wide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Alnwick Olkowski Wheater Hobbs Taylor Lowe Williams Ameobi Oztumer Donaldson Doidge I’m not convinced that Donaldson is the right pick there but he’s played ok lately and links fairly well with Doidge, you could also shift that formation pretty quickly to a 442 and ask Oztumer to fill in on the left - gives some flexibility. There’s an argument to say Magennis should start up top but I just have a feeling that Doidge will come good given a run of games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traf Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Magennis harasses defenders and runs himself into the ground. Defence starts upfront and whilst he's not as good as Kevin Davies was at it, he's the most likely to do it of the attacking options we have.

Site Supporter Alf Hartigan Posted November 10, 2018 Site Supporter Share Posted November 10, 2018 I don't think Magennis will end the season as our first choice striker. Not Championship level, decent league 1 though. Hoping Doidge will be, but not seen enough of him yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven't seen enough of doidge to form too much of an opinion, apart from an excellent goal at Rotherham, I've seen plenty of Magennis though.

Rizlar Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Been saying for ages now that the opposition score first we do not win and I have a feeling it was the same with previous managers. As for Parky it's his tactics which are the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
