why was manset not bought on?

Cos Clarke is better at defending from the front.

 

[SkyBlueScottie]

Plus going forward we were very good, so difficult to make a change which does not alter the shape of the team.

but to make 1 sub in 90 mins is a bit of a joke surely?

 

[Sutty]

No point making subs just for the sake of it. If it wouldn't improve the team, don't do it.

 

[stupot07]

Who would you have taken off for Manset?

fresh legs? impact? we need points. 2 points needlessly dropped today IMO

 

[ccfc92]

Who would you have taken off for Manset?

maybe Leon. or take baker off and do a 4-3-3

 

[Skybluesimon]

You can't play 4 3 3 with 3 central strikers. No criticism of presley so far he's been brilliant.

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Against Preston we had Clarke and Wilson with Manset in behind when he came on I think.

im not criticising, im just saying why was there only one change in the last few mins when we were at risk of shrewsbury winning the game

We'd just gone 2-1 down and trying to get back into the match. 1-1 away from home is a decent result.

Can you imagine the uproar had he gone 433 and we went on to concede and lose 2-1.

and what if we had of won 2-1?

We would have been happy, and praising Pressley for genius tactical nous.

Complaining at the lack of tactical nous because he didn't take a punt.

Yea I didn't mean we should have done it, I was just pointing it out as an option we have used before as people were asking who we could replace

 

[ccfc92]

also, so what if we would of had 3 central strikers? one of them would of picked the ball up n scored, so whats the problem?

 

[RoboCCFC90]

Leon didn't look with it in the last 10 Manset would have been a good option, Baker didn't look his usual self today either.. 2 points dropped definitely

Fair enough, just think sometimes hindsight is a wonderful thing.

agreed, but it would of been worth the gamble IMO, we need points on the board, now!

Totally agree. Leon didn't look fully fit to me so fresh legs might have made the difference for the last 10/15 minutes or so. Baker started okay but thought he got a knock just before half time and didn't look the same in the second half.

Great support from the Sky Blue Army today. PUSB

We're you there today? For my eyes Clarke was ineffective for most of the second half and Id have brought Manset on either for Baker (who was also gash) instead of Daniels or if he wanted to keep the shape for Clarke.

We were found out at half time by a better manager, nothing to do with "taking a punt" or not.

No wasn't there today, I was listening to the radio so totally reliant on Clive and Geoff.

I like clarke, thought he faded last 20 mins so a sub should have been made, for a big lad he doesnt win many headers, he jumps to early or not at all, he needs to win more balls in the air.
