IslandExile Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 As poor as we were in the first half, we were good in the second half against Brentford. Yes, credit Rooney for changing formation, players and his half time rollicking. BUT...... Why didn't he get it right in the first half? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many posters have been clambering for a starting place for Bird and Watson for a start, me included for the first. He put a team out that didn't perform to the way he wanted, couldn't pass or tackle, there is not a lot he can do about that, doesn't matter what formation or tactics you deploy. Our confidence was rock bottom, the goal came at the right time, what the players now have to do is take this self belief into the next game, not just perform 45 minutes every so often.

IslandExile Posted March 16, 2021 Author Share Posted March 16, 2021 I think the change of formation and increased motivation had more to do with the change of performance than anything. He's the manager, why didn't he get the formation right from the start? Heck he changes it often enough. He changes the team often enough. Isn't it time we settled on something?

Gritstone Ram Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 I was pleased with the effort second half I was depressed after the first half. I’m glad we could change it. Is Rooney and co over thinking things tactically and really just need to stick to something that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
