Woolf has hardly done much to impress when given the chance and until quite recently there was really no reason to even consider dropping Thomas or Kitching.
Yes I know, he started 1st Jan replacing dasilva who was on a red card ban. Played well but injured 62 minutes in. Been out until recently. He would be first pick at left back for me played on left at Preston & got player of the season.
Totally untrue. I have been saying for ages, we need to change formation away from home.Great when you are scoring 3 or 4, but that has changed and we need to make ourselves harder to beat. Woolf has done okay, when played..He had one bad game at Wrexham, when we were short of players. The whole team were dreadful that day. My posts aren't about dropping players, resting them, when playing 3 in a week. KH was Preston's player of the year, but hardly ever plays.
Yeah and when one bombs forward the other full back stays back and tucks in, which allows Grimes to squeeze forward its basic ametuer shit
Very difficult, if you are not playing regularly. Preston player of the season, last yr, I believe. Just checked, he won 3 awards.
KKH hasnt hit the heights we expected..... yet.
KKH was immense at Preston so there's a player in there but the stop start sub appearance here and there ain't good enough. I think he could be a serious weapon and he has the pace to get back. If Frank tweaked it so Milan and KKH were more reserved and held their defensive position there's no winger striker out running them it's such a simple fix. We have midfielders and wingers for a reason let them do the attacking.
The whole point of the formation is to have mve and jds overlapping the wingers creating 2v1s against opposition fullbacks and/or occupying a centre back to create an overload in the box for the cross.
Obviously I do know tactics pal and my point is teams are exposing it and it's costing us so any other coach would change tactically. You sound like a PE teacher patronising a student. The tactics did get us to the top of the league but them same tactics have seen us completely drop off because opposition coaches can see if it's turned over there's an ocean of space to exploit.
Have you been watching the last 8 weeks?
Exactly you keep doing the same things the same things happen believe it or not and now it's not working it'll continue to not work IMO and that's why there needs to be a big tactical change because it'll surprise the opposition too who's game plan will be based on what we've done all season but can see coaches are exploiting the tactics that did serve us so well. It's what coaches are paid to do and should really be setting up slightly different for every game IMO because it becomes almost robotic
I've backed DK up until now. I sincerely hope that he takes a qualified gamble in this window. This chance is one that just can't fail to be backed financially. There have to be questions asked in the eventuality that it isn't
I’ve been trying to convince myself that it’s just defensive errors costing us, the milwall game was more or less how our away games have been going but we managed to hold on, they actually had to work for their goal, the away form could quite easily turn around starting tomorrow, but it’s not working, QPR will set up to try and do what Norwich did. Why don’t we change it, give them something else to think about, we’ve got the perfect squad for a 532 away, it’s a bit more defensive but you can still get torp, Simms and wright ( who all get goals ) on at the same time, we’ll still create plenty, 4 5 1 is great when it works but you can see what happens when it doesn’t, nothing wrong with a plan b now and again ? Stick with the 451 at home it works, it’s not people knowing better it’s just seeing what’s wrong, I hope we do play what’s worked before and we batter them,
It was we were fortunate as fuck against Millwall and against say Boro or Hull City even Derby who look like a decent outfit they had so many injuries when we won 5-3 they will have a field day with the current set up. It's the element of surprise warming up tomorrow like our usual formation then switch to the 3 at the back would completely throw their game plan.
Thank the Lord people have woken up. Forum dominated by " we are top of the league"..but we haven't been good for 7/8 weeks. Leics and Millwall, lucky to win. Would I have taken this, at the start of the season? Definitely. Just need to turn it around tomorrow.
( Braus mistake ) swap allen for torp and the option of rudoni or Eccles,So you throw away what you know to be successful all things considered like player freshness/healthiness due to a few bad results?Exactly you keep doing the same things the same things happen believe it or not and now it's not working it'll continue to not work IMO and that's why there needs to be a big tactical change because it'll surprise the opposition too who's game plan will be based on what we've done all season but can see coaches are exploiting the tactics that did serve us so well. It's what coaches are paid to do and should really be setting up slightly different for every game IMO because it becomes almost robotic
Also. “Completely drop off”
Honestly I would love you to be right and you can bookmark my posts.
xG is fucking gayyyyyyyyyyyy
No it ain't look at the stats from the first half.
