Fruitygoo Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Been pouring down all night 40 miles... Pitch is going to be more horrendous than usual if its been the same up there...he may well go two big men up top and push midfielders on to chase knockdowns. Any chance this could be off?

I might start 3 of him if we had them, a spell of 7/10 performances defence would do nicely at the moment. I don't buy this Wilson 7/10 business. If that was the case, he would be starting week in, week out. I'd say a consistent 5.5 or 6/10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree, I think he’s usually 7/10 when he plays, but his versatility means that the manager is likely to pick a specialist full back or centre half rather than someone who ‘can do a job’ in either position.

Fruitygoo Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Hes a 7 at CB and a 5 at best when playing LB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarddog73 Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Wilson is well past it, gets done for pace time and time again at fullback, can't win an header and gets bullied at centreback, very average player and at best a squad player going forward.

Hands on Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Disagree. Dummigan has played well. He has been left much of the time to defend without support from anyone in front of him. He also still bombs forward when he can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midsblue Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Sounds like Wellens getting his excuses in already by suggesting they'll just have to get on with it despite losing out on three new signings on Wednesday evening. If he can't get a tune out of the current crop then perhaps we have made a mistake on going inexperienced again. I really want him to succeed but his head his down and for someone who sounds extremely attack-minded is playing defensively and negatively. What gets me is this is the same players apart from Hunt and Doyle that went on that run under him. Doyle is a massive loss but Nazon was on fire at Coventry and they desperately wanted him to stay for their promotion push - play him alongside Davies from the start. Davies is a sniffer and a great one at this level - get him chances in the box from flanks, midfield. Push Byrne forward and sit Fane behind in front of Bryan and Gerrard to mop up the counter. Head up Richie - go on the attack and as long as we score one more than them, who gives **** at the scoreline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midsblue Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 56 minutes ago, Dave_Og said: I'm not sure that 6 in 21 is incendiary He had 11 starts from 24 appearances and played 1052 minutes scoring 8 goals. That's 2 goals every 3 games or 31/32 goals a season. Quite prolific versus playing time wouldn't you say?! Add to that he had a number of assists and his attacking play caused the opposition nightmares. Coventry were desperate to keep him. Wolves, despite their finances, signed him to two years this season. Only weakness is he appears to tire 60-70 minutes in a game because he's explosive and gives his all. Hence why Coventry played him sporadically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stagger Lee Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 If we can get a great 60 or 70 mins out of Nazon and replace him with AH playing in a 2 up front with Davies then we should score at least one goal - up to the defence to do the job at the other end and that might be the real problem.

Sob stories with the best side we’ve had for a good few years isn’t what’s required, and I don’t give it long before he’s gone with that attitude Funny, because when he came in he gave off this tough-man persona, and it’s crumbled after a few defeats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 (edited) Dummigan is a joke defensively and the new lad hasn’t played for ages, yet he’s fielded a team where they’ll both have no protection. Can’t see anything other than a loss with that 11. Really hope I’m wrong. Edited February 3, 2018 by Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlossopLatic Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 The pitch looks awful I dont like doing this but needs must get the ball forward as quick as possible to both Davies and Nazons we will struggle to pass it through them today hit the front as quick as possible and go direct.
