2 Up Top

Can all bwfc fans please stop shouting to Parkinson all the way through the game for him to play two up top. If we had two up top today it would have been a cricket score. We do not have the squad nor ability to accommodate two up fucking top. The above was a rant but here is the question who are the two that most are calling to be played and who would be sacrificed in midfield to allow this to happen?

All Bolton fans don’t shout for it all game

 

In fact I reckon it’s less than1% that specifically do that

 

Discussion over?

Biggest discussion today was a zero tolerance sign in the ground

 

Gubbins thought it was for wanking in the stands

Edited apologies.

 

Still think there is a discussion if only to educate

I saw a zero drug tolerance sign. It's a shame as we've always been so tolerant beforehand????

 

The stewards are up to weird stuff again in east upper.

That's easy to answer. Any one of Buckley, Vela or Murphy who contribute less than either Otzumer or Donaldson would supporting Josh.

I sit in NSL and haven't heard anyone shouting it but I wouldn't blame anyone that did. If Sheff U can play 2 up top away from home and still look like they have twice as many midfielders, then it's not unreasonable to think, as the home side we could do it occasionally?

If we are getting twatted by 3 goals doesn't that warrant a tactical change ?

Never mind that, I really don't understand nobody upfront for their corners when losing 0-2.

 

And, even with 11 defending, they still find space in box!

Parkinson will never play 2 up top so no discussion needed really

 

And if we’re struggling to keep the ball and string more than 5 passes together with a 5 man midfield, our results would begin to favour kids football if we went to 4

They play 3-5-2. A system we played numerous times last year but one that definitely doesn’t suit us. Our threat is our wingers. Ameobi, Wildschut, Noone do not fit in a 3-5-2.

Formations not really relevant if you're incapable of passing with any great quality and are second best all over.

Wasn’t even 2 out and out strikers then. More of a 3-5-1-1

 

Managers preference and the squad he has put together tells us that’s a route he’ll never go down

I wasn’t there yesterday but plenty of people on the match thread are pointing to two or even three of our central midfields having little or no impact on the game

 

If that’s correct, then I doubt it would have been a cricket score by switching one of them for another forward

 

Then again, we only have Donaldson worthy or the role so it’s not like we have loads to go even if we did want to go with two

 

I’d imagine we are looking at bringing one in on loan, hopefully more useful than say a Tyler Walker type
