DCFC Kicks Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Like to see us play on the counter with Bird and Morrison playing the long balls to the wingers. I can see Morrison being hit-or-miss all season, might have to be subbed at half time sometimes. RadioactiveWaste and Chris_Martin 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starting Bennett in that final was a huge mistake. I will never forget the feeling I had when I saw the team sheet an hour before kickoff, my heart just sank. I knew we'd lost. And the thing is, it took us to go 2-0 down and Marriott to come on the pitch for us to actually start playing football. For the last half an hour we were all over them. Another 5 minutes and we would have got that equaliser. RadioactiveWaste, OohMartWright, Dean (hick) Saunders and 4 others 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it'll look like that when we're in possession, Bird dropping back when out to look more like the 4-2-3-1 with Ravel in the free 10 ahead of bird-shinnie. lot of words for i think we'll shape up the same but i'd like bird to get forward more.

Something he didn't do before. It's no wonder we played awful. The moment he took Huddlestone and Bennett off, and put two strikers on, we were much the better side.

It therefore made a lot of sense to finish with our best forwards, as Bennett would tire their defenders first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After 67 minutes we took off Hughes and Russell bringing on Dawkins and Bryson. So many good players in our team and a strange choice not starting with Bryson. Fozzy, Bucko and Keogh triple whammy.

He started with the team that absolutely dismantled Brighton in the semi (for which Bryson had been injured). Given that was the best performance I'd seen from the Rams for several years there was at least a rationale, but sadly it didn't work out.
