Tombo Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Hughes doesn't need a rest. If he needed a rest, he won't need one now because he won't have played for 9 days. Also, Mac would just give him a few days off of training if he badly needed a rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boycie Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Anybody, I'm not fussed. But drop Ward to the bench, and unleash him with 10 mins to go. Poke him with a stick for 5 mins prior to him getting on, and call him a yam yam. Watch him fly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester Ram Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 This is what I would play if form was out of the equation, Bamford's run of goals will end and I think Russell will edge him out. Grant Wisdom Keogh Bucko Forsyth Thorne Bryson Hughes Russell Martin Dawkins It's also a massive boost that our team doesn't pick itself anymore.

Alph Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 You'd have hated Jimmy Greaves. I didn't like Van Nistlerooy much. I suppose the point of the game is to score but I just don't enjoy poachers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramarena Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Maybe for tougher games especially away we could go with Grant Wisdom Keogh Buxton Forsyth Eutace Thorne Bryson Bamford Martin Russell Wonder how that would work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyHudson Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Maybe for tougher games especially away we could go with Grant Wisdom Keogh Buxton Forsyth Eutace Thorne Bryson Bamford Martin Russell Wonder how that would work? I had a conversation in the pub with a mate of mine about that idea - essentially rotating the midfield triangle to play with two holding players and leave one at the tip. Think either Hughes or Bryson could do a job just behind the front 3 and it would add more steel to the DM area when we need it (e.g: to see out a game when we're in the lead) Seems a simple idea, but I think it's one worth trying and would cause minimal disruption.

Ambitious Posted February 4, 2014 Author Share Posted February 4, 2014 I've noticed some really big calls regarding some of the teams - opens your eyes to other people's way of thinking. For instance dropping Martin, after 16 odd goals and 7/8 assists, a few dropping Buxton and even some dropping Hughes to accommodate Eustace in the team. Just makes me think 'bloody hell, glad McClaren's in charge' only kiddin' kids.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CumbrianRam Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Tried and tested, will be changes in the summer but it has stood well so far. 4-3-3 Grant Wisdom Keogh Buxton Forsyth Eustace (Thorne will play soon as Eustace will have a two game ban for next yellow, may keep place) Bryson Hughes Bamford Martin Dawkins Subs Legz Whitbread Hendrick Thorne/Eustace Russell Ward Sammon Bench has cover in most places. Bennett unlucky to miss out. The rest don't have much of a future apart from Roos, think Sammon will be gone in the summer too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alph Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Why do you always pick on me? I had to. Otherwise you'd have seen me say I'm not that impressed by Bamford's actual play and you'd have been on it like a car bonnet. Self defence. Basic jungle survival.

TigerTedd Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 I think we've got enough options now that we ought to be clever enough to change formation as the situation dictates. Steve Mac seems to just make like for like changes with just a bit of tactical tweaking. What he did at Ipswich was revolutionary, but then he's mostly stuck with that formation. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. But now we have the option to stick Thorne and Eustace on to shut up shop (away from home, two goals up, seems a good opportunity to do that). Or put two centre forwards on (Bamford and Martin) if we're going for the jugular at home. Or maybe I'm missing something, maybe we do do this already and I've not noticed.
