alex_balls Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I think his long term future might be at Burnley. Haha true BP, I really do feel this guy is a better attacking player than defender, he'd be cracking as a LWB or LW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP1960 Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 (edited) Haha true BP, I really do feel this guy is a better attacking player than defender, he'd be cracking as a LWB or LW. LJ could adopt the Liverpool tactic of 3 centre backs and 2 wing backs now it's back in fashion. Edited September 26, 2013 by BP1960 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex_balls Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 (edited) I thought that as I posted, I'd put Mills on left wing then, it's where I see his long term future... Haha true BP, I really do feel this guy is a better attacking player than defender, he'd be cracking as a LWB or LW. Finally the prayer has been answered and the gaffers seen sense, been saying it for ages, and i've heard alot of posters say Mills was MOTM or at least a close second, Good to see our LB play LB today and actually have two CB's at CB. The result, a point against top of the league. Keep the same team at PNE now please. Edited October 5, 2013 by alex_balls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opinions4u Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 MacDonald and Philliskirk look most likely to create an understanding together. They were helped by the play in behind them, but I did think they looked good together yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slystallone Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 Whilst i do agree that Philliskirk & MacDonald both had decent games, those 2 playing together does limit us size wise. Early in the game, we had a goal kick and i noticed that our 4 furthest players - Mills, Philliskirk, MacDonald & Dayton were all up against defenders who towered over them. Not one of those 4 is even close to 6ft. When you add in Wes & Korey too; we really are a small side. Purely from a size viewpoint alone, Rooney or JCH come into their own. That said, Saturday was the 1st time i've seen Danny Philliskirk play live, and whilst he's no world beater - i was impressed with his workrate and the way he linked a lot of our play. IMO, the game changed when Batt came on for them, And Philliskirk left for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big dopey CBs in League 1 will mop up headers all day, but stick it on the ground to wriggly little players like Dayton and Philiskirk and they will struggle. Really thought we threw the game away by replacing Philiskirk with Rooney, we lost our link man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slystallone Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Agree on the Philliskirk sub. Changed the game that did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
