oafc1955 Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Is Eckersley a Left Back then? I thought he was a Right Back? I thought we wanted to end Square pegs and all that. He said when he signed that he can play in both FB positions so hopefully a good addition to the squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Burns Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 He's hardly alone but Jones has been :censored:e so far this season, so important to us, need him to step it up. Immune. Any player playing out of position is immune to criticism. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristolatic Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Is Eckersley a Left Back then? I thought he was a Right Back? I thought we wanted to end Square pegs and all that. I thought, as does oafc1955, he was able to play anywhere across the back four, and has done a number of times. As the_mighty_bosh says, needs must. Don't worry, I'll tie him up and throw him to Barry for you. I appreciate the offer, but I wouldn't wish even a few seconds with Barry on anyone. Oh wait ... Go on, then.

Monty Burns Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Dunno about that, playing wide is not alien to him. Not havin it. Hes a CM and cud play in most div3 teams there. Proper frustrating waste of a good player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celliott83 Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 I appreciate everyone's attempt at a side but no one has included Danny 'Bulletproof' Philliskirk. He's started every league game so far hasn't he? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBigDog Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Coleman Dieng J Wilson Burn Eckersley Kelly Croft Fulton Jones Yeates Higdon Breaking into a 4-3-3 with Fulton and Jones supporting Higdon, Croft and Yeates supplying the crosses. Am I dreaming? Bench: Cornell, B Wilson, Brown, O'Connell, Winchester, Poleon, Stan And bear in mind that I've not been able to get to a single game this season, so I basically know :censored: all. Not enough pace in that side. Fulton and Croft on the bench for me with Poleon and Winchester/Philliskirk starting.Third game of the season for me today... We are Latics.

eyres_28 Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 (edited) I appreciate everyone's attempt at a side but no one has included Danny 'Bulletproof' Philliskirk. He's started every league game so far hasn't he? Except the seasons best performance to date at Walsall. Hmmm. I like the lad and think he's been doing a decent job in the absence of Kelly in CM, particularly at Bury. However, he shouldn't be picked in the midfield ahead of the current crop and with Higdon up, we're gonna need pace around him, which DP simply doesn't offer.

Now I'm not sure why he gets picked so much. I genuinely don't notice anyone who gives the ball away as much and is so easily nudged out of possession.

oafc_lover Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Looks all down to the new lads to change things. Eckersley on the bench while Brown continues to steal a living pretending to be a footballer though?! Yeates, probably the only natural winger capable of putting a decent cross in the box on the bench? Who's going to stick the ball on Higdon's head? Cornell? Absolutely :censored:e when he's played. I get that Dunn think Coleman is too comfortable but you change that by bringing in a keeper that can truly challenge him, not by cutting off your nose to spite your face. Coleman is by a distance better than Cornell so :censored:ing play him Dunn!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP1960 Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Higdon isolated up front, Fulton not up to the pace, Jones having a poor game. Croft not in it, Philiskirk on the left, looks very disjointed. We could have another manager next month at this rate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluear Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 No better than under Kelly. Philiskirk giving possession away before that goal cos he's weak as :censored:! Need to start pressing these not letting them pass it round constantly under back. With no pressure they can just pick a pass when it opens up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunty Blue Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Continue to play long balls aimlessly, no guile but ffs where is the passion?! Even a hint. And press them a little higher. Trying to be positive but it's fairly depressing. Oh and one up top at home with no pace. Not working. Oh well. Maybe a sneaky goal and who knows...
