Waste a pile of points and then change to 4-3-3? That was my preseason prediction. He's a bit smug but I think I'm with Bris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimRam Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I think we can conclude that Bent is a "last 20 minutes" man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDeadlySaul Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Wouldn't mind going 3-5-2, means we can play 3 in midfield and solves the winger problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintRam Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Summary of players in first half based on Dawes/Rammage ramblings: Christie caught forward a number of times, but also did some good forward Keogh misplaced a number of passes, Shackell slow to a few challenges, Forsyth doing OK, Blackman slow to do anything with the ball, but has done OK when he's done something, also done OK defensively. Hughes lightweight, done very little, Bryson winning a lot of 50/50s, Butterfield not doing much, Bent fluffing a bit, Ince doing better since moving deeper, has gotten a bit angry with someone at some point, hasn't done a great deal of note. Oh Carson done OK other than scoring an OG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to be patient now more than ever imo Sorry but this is absurd. The team needs building on, not completely rebuilt. I thought Pearson was going to play our strongest 11 (Hull away + Thorne), in their strongest system/formation and instill them with his diehard ethic which is one of the only reasons we've not gone up. Instead it looks like he's going to do everything his way, regardless of the squad he has. It's early days but it is worrying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't have the players for 4-4-2, and it's made even worse by playign a central midfielder out wide left and a striker out wide right. We're literally playing seven players out of position, and the ones which are arguably suited to this system are average Championship players like Darren Bent. Back to cloughie days square pegs in round holes again ? not the best start too a season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Harford Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Why are we starting Bent? Has he even had a shot on target this season? Get Martin on and get Bryson playing up and around him. Well that's what I'd be doing anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
