And the more I think about the more I'm convinced Beckford should play every minute of every game he makes great runs and if we find someone to pick him out on a regular basis he will score plenty at this level.

 

i'd also play him

 

but hes a current target for the boo boys

 

we found him twice yesterday and i'd expect him to score at least one of them

which one of them would you have put on at 1-0 down, yesterday

 

we have beckford, ngog, davies and odelusi

I would have started with 2 up top yesterday its Yeovil FFS 3 holding midfielders is Complete overkill more poor decisions, I'm finding it really hard to justify supporting DF with every post I make, and I really really want to find a reason to back him. Edited by Mounts Kipper

I back Dougie and believe he'll be the right one long term. But I have to agree about the going 2 up top yesterday. The championship is a tough league but we do over complicate things at times and I think a basic 4-4-2 would have sufficed yesterday.

He's sanctioned Eaves and Sordell out on loan that's bad management in my eyes without having replacements in place it's DF fault that he had to stick ZK up front, lets not dress it up in any other way.

 

Now is this the same Eaves who ousted SKD at the end part of last season? I thought he was the best thing since sliced bread. Another management howler. Or was someone being punished.

Did I miss the fact Tierney went off and Knight replaced him rather than him coming on for N'gog?

 

We were losing so stick him up top,

 

What's the issue?

Exactly. Was a correct decision that needed to be done.

and who are these 3 holding midfielders?

Spearing is one... Sort of.

 

Is medo holding???

 

And...

 

And would class any as holding really as none of them actually sit like ream does when he plays there.

 

This formation is as attacking as you can get. There's fuck all defensive about it. Especially when the full backs spend most of their time in the oppositions half.

Spearing and medo sit in front of Ream for most part for me they constitute sitting midfielders there certainly not dynamic breaking midfielders, and to answer casino I'd of started with NGog and Beckford as Davies not fit and the release of Eaves and Sordell should have only been sanctioned when another striker was recruited. Odelusi DF obviously feels is not ready so I don't count him in as a starter in the team. Edited by Mounts Kipper

you said we had 3 holding midfielders

 

if i conceded spearing and medo (which i will only to make progress) we only had 2, unless you think one of lee, hall and eagles is a holding midfielder

 

if you do, we may as well give up :o

 

as stated, id also start with beckford ahead of ngog

 

those 4 attacking players were well capable of creating the chances and the goals we so badly need

 

 

as for him not thinking odelusi is ready - you're probably right, so we have him 4th in line

At least DF subbed the 2 worst players on the pitch yesterday the pair of them should hang there heads in shame for those who did not go stand up LCY and NGog 2 players yesterday not fit to wear the proud white shirt of BWFC.

I wouldn't even put them on the bench on tuesday.

 

Not fit but I bet at least one of them will start on Tuesday night.

 

* edit = not fit to wear the shirt.

...and Davies to PNE. If we need to throw someone on to win long balls in the last few minutes we might as well have kept him. He's a better striker than Zat Knight.

 

Pretty sure that ZK came on as another CB and was the third of three subs. He was sent up front in desparation, how would it have helped even if the rest of the subs bench had all been strikers?

I'm classing Ream as a defensive midfielder as well sat in front of the back 4 and in front of him medo and spearing whichever way you look at it that's too many players who's main job is to protect the back 4, granted the full backs bomb on but in my eyes they do it too much and that forces to wingers inside or too deep, when there forced inside that area becomes congested and everything breaks down its a pigs ear of a system and results prove it.

It wouldn't of help but with 2 strikers in a simple 442 or 433,we would probably have been 3 up bu then, this was Yeovil at home FFS. Edited by Mounts Kipper

Sunday drinking mk?

Must be I had in my head Ream playing in behind medo and Spearing when in fact he was centre half, my eyes are going I tell thee. Anyhow still feel 2 up top was the way to go in a simple system.

 

Ps that was nearly as bad as besiktas away when they scored after 20 minutes and I thought we were in white and stelios had scored, mind you had an Efes overload excuse there:)

So you're saying Ngog should have stayed on and Beckford brought on alongside him. I'd have played up front myself and had a better idea of when I was offside than Ngog did. We'd have been better off with him off the pitch than on it.

nowt wrong with "back to basics"

 

I just don't think we'd be any more of a threat with 2 up top and 2 wingers. It's not As if we ever look like scoring from crosses.

 

With 3 behind one, it's like having 4 player actually working as an attack. In theory.

cut him a little slack; he wasn't expecting that the ball would come to him

simple system.

Can we not just try this?

 

Just a nice 4-4-2 simple system.

 

2 center halves,2 full backs.

 

2 wingers,2 central midfielders.

 

And wait for it 2 strikers.

 

I know it's a bit mental and out there like.

 

But we have tried everything else.

But we have 7 wingers
