    Carsley, what sre you thinking?!

    I never said the fans were, however, if they weren't so arrogant about the EPL being the best, they be more conscious of the fact that nearly 2/3 of plays in the prem are foreign so might develop a consciousness of bringing youth players through, remember, fans are also in the media (writers for...

    V a poor Bury, we could've played 6-3-1 (exaggeration) and still won! Formation, regardless of the game is significant and v Bury, we may have won, but we did play poorly and that was a game you judge performance and the result. Likewise v Crewe in midweek, we won, but we were against a side...

    Breaking news: Acl call off rent talks

    ACL is a private corporation, not a democratically elected body, it is backed by council, but ACL has zero accountability also. SISU are held accountable by the fans, the fans scrutinize the ownership at every opportunity and many moan about lack of investment, but don't take FFP into account...

    Is that because it's my favourite formation as it's title? Problem is, we play a rigid 4-4-2 when we play 4-4-2! This is bound to get earn me some criticism, but I don't think Clarke would've scored the goal he did if we were playing 4-4-2 because I think Clarke, when he held the ball up...

    Baker has a far higher workrate, that wasn't my point, it was that they can try too hard to impress and by doing so, fail, Baker will try take on 'the world' and Fleck would try to do a pass to force the issue, especially when he comes on as a sub, and they fail when they try too hard. Fleck...

    Depends what he wanted, AB would've said we played close to perfect in games we've played in, and he's a hoofball merchant... IMO, we weren't that good v Sheff U even in the 1st half, if I were manager, it wouldn't be what I was looking for, it's based on interpretation isn't it?

    Carsley, what sre you thinking?!

    I don't read FourFourTwo (accept season preview) nor WorldSoccer and ironically for you, I have formed my opinions watching 4-4-2 fail, over and over, and then reading documents from coaches and people like Cruyff promoting 4-3-3 and 4-2-3-1. You are one instance, I'm generalising the millions...

    Carsley, what sre you thinking?!

    Tell why so many British fans accept 4-4-2 as a good formation where our fellow foreign counterparts disagree, they best teams, club and international, in the world do not play 4-4-2 and haven't done for sometime. I'll give you an example for a L1 player who is talented as a footballer and...

    Carsley, what sre you thinking?!

    You know I was criticising 4-4-2 in that instance, ask CCFC (forum user), he should remember that well. Not my fault I'm not a nostalgic middle-aged person who has seen 4-4-2 succeed, I'm part of the youth that has seen 4-4-2 fail to much for me to accept it as a suitable formation for England...

    Carsley, what sre you thinking?!

    That was because people were saying we should play 4-4-2, and I practically wrote an essay on the weaknesses of the formation and gave practical examples and how we don't suit and this season hasn't exactly proved me wrong has it?

    Carsley, what sre you thinking?!

    As I have pointed out, we have lost more games playing 4-4-2 than 4-5-1 at home. we score less and concede a similar amount of goals, down to tactics so it seems because under LC we've kept 3/4 clean sheets. Interesting you mention Rooney, he's not a typical '9' striker, he is becoming much...

    Carsley, what sre you thinking?!

    Hang on, I've said we were poor v Bury and Crewe, or are we forgetting that? I also remember kicking up a fuss about 4-4-2 despite beating Sheff U 2-1. I weren't really on SBT to moan about Bury had no internet until I got home v Bury (iPad has no 3G, forget paying for that!) and I did moan...

    Carsley, what sre you thinking?!

    Did we miss 4-4-2? No, even more embarassing for you because I've never said 'we need to play Fleck or Barton', I've only said I think they'd do well, whereas you've said 'we need to play 2 upfront'. Ironically, you criticised the diamond and 4-5-1 when things weren't going particularly well...

    Carsley, what sre you thinking?!

    I wouldn't think that, no, but your average British fan would, because they don't have the patience for that style of play, they want strength, power, pace and then technicality, that's why our national team has failed badly and have dropped out of the international elite of football. No, in...

    Breaking news: Acl call off rent talks

    Why wouldn't we? SISU's predecessors were in fact worse for CCFC, SISU didn't sell HR nor did they go through with building a stadium they couldn't afford NOR did they agree to such a stupid rent agreement. Also, if Hoffman's takeover had been successful, Keys had even said that if the club...

    Breaking news: Acl call off rent talks

    Exactly what I thought when you suggested I was a Thatcherite. I bet you could not guarantee you would be on the side of ACL if the owners weren't SISU.
