Careca9 Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 9 minutes ago, St92 said: The 5 at the back still absolutely confuses me. I don't understand where there has been even a 5 minute spell where it has looked like it's got even a chance of success. Every team we play has all the time in the world in midfield because we don't have the bodies further up the pitch to press. If we do have the bodies, we have an isolated 1 up top. Unsworth said in the twitter Q & A that he wants to play 433 but hasn't got the personnel too. I don't see why he can't play Sheron (aka the midfielder he has playing at CB) in midfield, then okagbue/Maynard cb, and go 4 at the back. totaly agree they sit too deep. No pressure, all the time in world to pick passes. He’s easy got the forward resources, Abraham, toilet, Fondop, Rooney and now hope. full of shit DU. Can’t even get a tune out of the defenders each week and defending should be his strong point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yarddog73 Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Negative, boring, predictable, embarrassing, hopeless, humiliating - are just a few of the adjectives I'd use to describe us. No wonder Carragher fucked off and I suspect Abraham will soon enough he's too good to play in a team like this, isolated and hopelessly exposed.

It seems like you always get negative defensive tactics. I'm genuinely worried that we'll go down. I know this game today won't be a measure of that because we'll play far worse teams, but both Unsworth and Shez have shown a total reluctance to change the system and that's what seems to cause most of our problems.

I'm not saying play all out attacking but if you set up as a 433 or 4231 you would have more players further up the pitch which gives more options for you to pass to and makes it easier. As it is we have 1 maybe 2 options to pass to when in possesion, which makes it so easy to read, and therefore much easier to defend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daniel Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 How Cooper is a professional football honestly baffles me. I know we could say this about the majority of these clowns but my god he’s a different level of terrible. Pray to god we don’t offer him a new contract in January and he fucks off.

Andyt84 Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Everytime the ball goes in the box we have 4 or 5 holding hands in the middle and they always have players on the edge with time shoot. We never press them or attack loose balls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t see why he can’t put more furthe forward and go more direct when we don’t have the players who can pass plus Fondop a unit who wins headers. Get abrham, toilet or rooney off the big man and get 3 people to just close and tackle in middle. I’m sure Sunday league tactics would make us better than this defensive shite he tries every week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
