Good double to bet on is us to lose tomorrow and SS to be out of the club by the end of the season.Ā Thought the report from Iles was actually quite good and really makes for a worrying read. For someone who has been accused of being too soft on the club in the past must be serious concerns.Ā Quote
Stig Posted January 15 Posted January 15 Not sure why we're switching to a back 5 after one half v Peterborough that we lost 2-1 Quote
Zog1 Posted January 15 Posted January 15 5 minutes ago, Stig said: Not sure why we're switching to a back 5 after one half v Peterborough that we lost 2-1 Because he changed the formation but not the tactics, hell i think he was playing ACD as a wing back, still cutting in to shoot with 2/3 players around him.

What have you been smoking do i need to call GMP. Ā To be fair you are advocating dropping our best player for a lad who's played one senior game of football in his life (and that was in a tinpot trophy in front of 12 people). I don't care what formation we play but it needs to have ACD in it.Ā Quote

That's not ACD's fault, but what he and the rest of the team are being instructed to do regarding plays and attacks that go to/ thorugh him isn't working.Ā Edited January 15 by Zog1 Quote
Rizlar Posted January 15 Posted January 15 This inverted winger is what most teams are playing these days . Quote

The problem is that we dont over or under lap, we dont play anything though the middle, we never get to the byline. We are totally 1 dimentional and easy to defend against.Ā Doing any of that would then free up Gale and ACD to be able to cut inside to cross and shoot, but because we dont attacks get stuffed out.Ā Real chances become half chances under pressure.

Not drop a player who's got 6 goals and 9 assists in 25 appearances, to give a lad his first senior league start in a derby. You're not the only one calling for him to be dropped. Can't see it unless SS really does fancy being unemployed this time next week. Quote
meanderson93 Posted January 15 Posted January 15 Worrying if it is true that the team has been leaked two days before the biggest game of the season, not really helping anyone if someone has decided to do that. Ā Regardless I'd have it asĀ Harrington Christie, Total, Johnston Tutu, Simons, Ehrahon, Conway ACD Burstow, Forss/Gale Quote

I agree, the tactics are THE issue, but he's had ample games to fix it and he hasnt, he just keeps tinkering with the formation and player selection.Ā Leads me to think, he doesn't think theĀ tactics are the issue because "we played really well for the first 4.5 months of the season" and the xG is good.Ā Quote

Arrested development Posted January 15 Posted January 15 If we end up going 3 at the back then ACD Kind of has to be behind the two forwards. You can't drop him. We have to find ways of getting the best out him and considering every other option at 10 has flattered to decieve, he gets a go there.Ā But I don't think we looked particularly good with 3 at the back against port vale. Have really bad memories of 3 at the back Evattball too, thought we had seen the last of that formation.Ā The caveat here is we aren't scoring enough goals and we need to find ways to get the ball in the net.Ā Quote
