DerbyRam! Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 I'd love to see...... Carson Christie Keogh Shackell Ollson Bryson Thorne Butterfield Blackman Martin Weimann 4-3-2-1 emphasis on martin linking up playing closer to the midfield, weimann as the willing runner upfront creating space for everyone else and a tendency to play pretty football in the middle allowing time for our full backs to overlap :o. Blackman because ince has been *****, and no russell but have him as the n.1 sub Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sexydadbod Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Please no Russell or Johnson. Both are headless chickens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingsy1884 Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Any more 442 and we are doomed. Go back to all that we know 433 Carson Christie Keogh shackell Olsson Thorne Butterfield Bryson Russell Martin Camara Brentford are struggling a bit at the moment as well so what have we got to lose. Watch the tape when we played them at home IMO our best performance this season. Hit them hard from the off and pressure them high up the pitch and get your creative players passing the ball with tempo, play with Martin with the fowards and Bryson making runs beyond. What could possibly go wrong. 2-0 to Derby if we go down this route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jono Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 There is nothing wrong with 442 or 433 .. We have top players for this league and enough of them to play either system effectively. i couldn't give a xxxxx who starts and what the formation is .. Please can we win At this point, playing well preferably with the ball on the floor for the majority of the time would be a bonus . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hendrick is a good footballer but by instinct and ability he is an attacking midfielder .. If he isn't around / close to or supporting the striker then he is probably out of position. Butters seems to have more all round abilities and to be more adaptable at least. Hanson seems to be able to play advanced or DM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the only time Bent has looked good this season and, if I'm honest, it's one of very few occasions when Ince has looked good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Sheriff Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Bent has had extremely limited game time. Think hes only started 2 games in the league all season so think it is very harsh to give up on him. As for ince i feel he is twice the player when in the centre but i agree he has been disappointing on the wing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Ince has the football brains to see what Bent Is trying to do and plays the ball quick enough so Bent is off side less often or he uses the space that Bent creates for him. I strongly believe the missing element in team selection is not which players are picked but which pairings / trios of players are picked. Some players work well together some don't. That is no reflection on an individual ability. Pineapple on Pizza does not work no matter how much you like either of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DcFc Dyycheee Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 fwiw I'd go Carson Christie Keogh Shackell Olsson Hanson Butterfield Blackman Ince Camara Martin obviously that all depends on how we're going to play, if we're persisting with hoof football, get Blackman and Martin in a two up front.

Dannyboz1884 Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Carson Christie Keogh Shackell Olsson Ince Bryson Butterfield Russell Blackman Martin Last chance for Ince and Russell though, if no performance from either of them someone else has to be given a chance as they haven't produced for a while now. Blackman and Martin to be paired together. Lets see if we can strike a partnership up in the last few games of the season. We know Martin can score goals he is just on a very very bad run and Blackman is up there for goals this season in the league so put them together. None of this matters though without decent service, those crappy long balls from Shackell will not cut it. Camara on the bench for Weimann too, as we havn't seen enough of Camara to really have an opinion and Weimann's performances are the same every game no idea. I know people want 443 but I honestly think a Blackman/Martin partnership would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I love to see attacks break down due to an experienced forward being offside as much as the next fan, but what else is he bringing to the table? I'm not really a Bent fan, Anon, but the boy can poach, is super strong in the air, and has some serious pace. He does venture offside at an alarming rate but his goals per minutes played must be close to if not the best of all our strikers. That 25 minutes was the most he's played since Bristol where he helped Ince carve open the defence with his running. But it was still only 25 and that hendrick shot would have been put in by Bent. He really deserves much more time and should start. If Wassall wants to put Zanzala (recall) or Blackman alongside him or instead of him you can make the case too.

If you have invented a time machine I would rather you used it to fetch 1969 Dave Mackay or 1971 Kevin Hector instead of 2012 Darren Bent, which was the last time he displayed any meaningful pace. Aside from that I'd agree that he does at least deserve a chance in a team moulded to fit him rather than just shoving him the Martin role and watching him flounder.
