Monty Burns Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Kusunga for Smith I would still be reasonably happy with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Burns Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Petrasso would fit better into that than Sir Gary-but only if we can get him for the full season Yeah but I love Harkins. Obv in a none gay manly way of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

opinions4u Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Always the optimist O4u? I'd be fairly pleased with both. A big fee for Smith and his place going to a very good footballer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slystallone Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 I must be the only one who thinks kasunga looks like a big clumsy bastard? He'd frighten me to death playing midfield. Nope, nope you're not. Another one here. I swear the youtube video of "him" doing Cruff turns and step overs is someone else. He's dodgey as feck with the ball at his feet. Defender? Yeah, he did pretty well, but i've seen diddly squat to suggest he'd be any cop at all in midfield... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe worth a throw up front as an experiment pre season, didn't he tuck a goal nicely away v Peterborough? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From near enough on the goal line? Yeah he did. By that thinking, Lockwood is our new 20 goal a season striker; he stuck his 2 goals for us away beautifully...

yarddog73 Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 (edited) I have a feeling LJ may go with a 5-3-2 next season using B.Wilson and Mills as wing backs with any 3 from Lockwood, Kusunga, J.Wilson and Brown in the 3 central positions, midfield would then be Smith central with Jones inside right, hopefully harkins inside left with JCH up front with a.n.other hopefully clarke/zoko/mcleod leaving turner, philly, dayton, winchester, mellor and bove on the bench.

stevesidg Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Kusunga to sit in front of the the back four. Smith to be sold. If the first one happens it would be one of those wtf moments Would only happen 2 or 3 games though, until he got injured again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChaddySmoker Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 haha why does that not suprise me ! Go on then, firstly why do you want us to play 3 centre halves? May I suggest that is just because Mills is so good going forward! I advocated 3 at the back last year when we had Kusunga Tarky & Matteo-but not with the current 3! When Mills played for us before we played 4 at the back! 2) Smiths defensive attributes allow him to drop in and become effectively the 3rd centre half when both full backs, especially Mills go forward! 3) If we do re-sign Sir Gary, Mills will leave us totally exposed if he is disposessed leaving us with no defence on that side of the pitch until they reach our area, 4) Your system leaves out our best link player Philly being replaced by a centre half! I reckon Philly will be in demand by other clubs come January! (Helmet on!) 5) Some of those strikers are out of our reach, salary wise, apart from Zoko but perhaps even he is too dear! Turner will be a good un in time! 6) Your personnel leave us totally short of pace up front and in midfield (unsure about Jones speed) 7) With only 3 in midfield we will be overrun there by teams playing 4-4-2 espec with Sir Gary there! 8) When teams play 3 centre halfs and wingbacks the outball is usually lumping diagonal balls in from the halfway line to a tall striker etc etc etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarddog73 Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Dont see Brown as a footballer most the time never mind a centre half but as he has signed on for a year I suspect he will be played, personally id have Lockwood centre with J.Wilson left and Kusunga right with B.Wilson and Mills as mobile wing backs, I think that would work as we dont really offer anything out wide the way we currently set up for me philly dayton are ineffective out wide and mills and wilson would do a better job than either, I suspect the manager wont play like this bit it would give us a chance of getting bodies forward especially at home, as for Harkins at inside left I feel its his best position he isnt an out and out winger and tends to drift in, it could leave mills exposed but Wilson should be able to cover, with the players we are likely to have its something that could work it clear that the 4-5-1 wont work at home and something needs to change, as for wages for a forward wasnt rooney on around 5k a week clarke is on around double that but whose gonna pay him that when wolves off load him ? Lge 1 is his level and he will end up somewhere so why not with us ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaddySmoker Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 We didnt really play 4-5-1 we actually played more like 4-1-4-1 but slightly adjust that to 4-1-3-1-1 if Philly doesnt have to keep going back in to help the midfield. At home or when we are on top that can be changed easily to 4-4-2 with Philly moving up top or even 4-3-1-2 with a sub. Our system worked for the last 10 games and all that really (in my opinion) needed to change was better players, 2 done and 2 more to come hopefully Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarddog73 Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 look at our home record in that unbeaten run 5 games 7 points and we played against some poor teams something has to change system wise at home or we wont break into the top half of the table, away tactics great but home it was poor.

yarddog73 Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 So you want to play 3 centre halves and leave out Philly Didnt do much for me in the 10 match run goes missing in games, especially against your Prestons and Rotherhams before that run he was no existent, might be harsh as he is a good footballer and he was shuffled about a bit but for me in the system id play he would have to miss out unless you played him as one of the two upfront but i dont think he and jch link up that well, if we had to use one of our strikers as it stands id give turner a spin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
