We need to be as solid as we can be and take our chances and against Birmingham I have never seen a game of football break out in the past 40 years so we need to battle and battle all game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chester40 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Gone for a bit of a fudge option... They are powerful, dangerous in the air, so this gets us 3 center backs to try and cope. Width comes from the wingbacks which means the out and out wingers (Roberts/Joz) aren't needed and the more workmanlike and solid Waghorn and even Lawrence are able to work inside.

angieram Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 The positive side effect of bringing Roos back into the team is that we now have an outfield captain to drive the team on the pitch. I never think that a goalkeeper works well in that role. Pleased for Shinnie because he always puts in the effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope this works but am not loving it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Trav Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Not the team imo. I don’t see a goal in that team. No Roberts no sibley. If we fluke a goal I think we can win tho as we seems very defensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCFC1388 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Tactic should be go long to CKR, Waggy run in behind for anything over CKR head n flick ons, then Lawrence drop off him for any knock downs n 2nd balls. Similar to Brentford 2nd half Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Sagan Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 All of the Radio Derby pundits claimed to be baffled by the goalkeeping switch, yet watching the Preston game my take was that Marshall should have stopped all three goals. Yes there were plenty of other mistakes with those goals, but when my take was that Roos would not have let any of the them in, he deserves to be playing today.

Kinder Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 I’m watching the Bournemouth Brentford game and they had our team across the bottom - with Marshall in goal?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jourdan Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 The reason why we are playing three at the back is so Forsyth can drop back and cover for Roos when he marauds upfield to smash one home. It’s not defensive, it’s tactical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilkoRam Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 I think some of our best performances this season have come when playing a back 3. I think whatever team or formation was put out today it would be seen negatively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was very unlucky to lose his place and Marshall has been standing still for a lot of the goals we have been conceded recently ( admittedly some poor defending in front of him) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeedsCityRam Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Dismantles the promising Shinnie/Bird pairing to go with pure graft in the centre Drops another creative player further ahead to go with 5 starting defenders in addition to that. Leaves us with only 3 attacking players on the park, all of whom have had recent issues with injuries & fitness. Brings in a keeper who has shown vulnerability to crosses in the past against a physical & aerial team All this in a game we need to win. Guessing the thinking is stay in the game & bring the creativity off the bench to win later in the game when gaps start to appear. The gameplan is seriously compromised if we concede first though, given our poor record of comebacks this season. Also wouldn't expect Birmingham to especially want the ball, the onus will be on us from the start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not just against Preston but there has been several times this season (and it's been increasing) where I've thought that a keeper at this level should be saving some of the goals we've been conceding and that Roos likely would have done.

Guest Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 As a statement of the obvious the reason we are where we are is that we don’t score enough goals you can talk tactics all day but we have the lowest goals for in the division Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
