Based on... Hard work?

Did you see 'sleeves' give the ball away at every opportunity? Have you seen every game since Oldham where he hasn't scored, and managed 1 assist? Did you also see Clarke's goal? Top finish which he created for himself with that knock down.

Moussa played well v PNE (away), Elliott hasn't played well since Oldham at home, yet, some think he should start ahead of Clarke (17 goals) or think he's actually a good player. Over the course of the season, Moussa has shown he has something to offer, with 2 absolute screamers and a few...

No, I think it's common sense that, if you don't have 2 good strikers to play, you don't play a formation that has 2 strikers in it.

No I'm not, I remember seeing him give the ball away at almost every opportunity, but I guess hitting the post makes up for a shite performance with some people. :whistle: You know what I said to mate when he hit the post? "That'll make up for a shit game with some people", you took the bait.

Well said, we don't have the players to play 4-4-2, and it's about time some clocked on to this, before the discussion actually starts about this, what 2 strikers can start? To suggest Elliott; Wilson or Philliskirk are good enough is (nearly) laughable.

I disagree on Elliott, today he gave away the ball pretty much every time he got the damn thing! Doesn't score, all he does is run, but that's enough for some fans, offers little. I do, however, agree with your point on Moussa, I do think Fleck should be given a go behind the striker and Thomas...

Besides Edj, he doesn't look too bad. I said solid, we won most, probably all, of his aerial 'battles', no means great, but I think we desperately need a CB or 2! Or by some miracle, Willis steps up at his v young age.

Don't entirely agree with that, we have a top 6 side easily, we have a good midfield, subs included, but as you say, Baker is getting old, and Sheff is past it (I added that) so that needs strengthening for next season (whatever league we're in), we also need 1-2 CBs for next season, and a...

On reflection on February so far, he's started all but one game, Yeovil, can anyone say he's good enough to start ahead of talented midfielder such as Moussa? Has 1 assist this month, and his last goal was v Oldham, in my view, he doesn't warrant a starting place v Bournemouth, and neither do...

In one word... NO!

Uphill task, but we need to start with a W playing Bournemouth.

Cameron wasn't too bad, it's Edj who's the problem. That didn't seem to matter when we played 4-5-1 did it!? Moussa is actually good, Elliott isn't. It's the ideology you buy into with formation. When we did well in November and December, why didn't we play 4-4-2 and start Elliott instead...

I've actually criticised 4-4-2, even when winning... If we had 2 good strikers to play, I wouldn't mind that much - thing is, we don't. We play better playing 4-5-1, fact, win more, score more, concede the same, all facts, end of discussion.

So when we lose playing 4-5-1, we 'need' to play 4-4-2, but whenever we lose playing 4-4-2, it's we wouldn't have lost... Behave. I think it would've, we got dominated in midfield v their 3, and to have Elliott ahead of Moussa is a crime. Also, we couldn't play through Crewe, no one...

In what way were we good? Very poor performance and we've bottled it again!

Murphy 7 - great save and played well, distribution was good, definitely an unsung hero. Christie 7 - defended well, got forward well, needs to work on crosses. Cameron 6 - solid, should've scored. Edj 5 - drifted too far and nearly cost us, he was pretty poor. Dickinson 4 - can't play...

Did we win this game?

No I wasn't... 1 'immense' game in nearly 67 appearances.

Some people actually care about this more than skill level and technicality. *sigh* (not aimed at you) I could slag off Platt, he was fucking shit and out of his depth as soon as he came here, I'm glad he fucked off!
