Ravabeerbelly Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 14 hours ago, LeedsCityRam said: Good line up, think we only differ on Watson. Do you see Hutchinson's future at LW? Whenever I've seen him in u23s he's been a sitting midfielder, not unlike Bird with his composure on the ball. I’m not sure about left wing but again all these discussions have to understand how WR wants us to play….so he’s definitely not a ‘winger’ in the traditional sense, but he clearly wants to roll inside and allow full backs to get outside him and rotate with the other 2 att mids. Him and Sibley both like to get into the 10 position and beyond the forward and I think eventually they could work well together. Here are there heat maps from the Salford game which saw them have 6 shots (3 each) and shows them occupying either wing and the 10 area.

Championship television coverage is desperate for a channel to take it that will know what they are doing with it and not treat it as a cash cow.

JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 After the signings today I have changed my mind. We will win 0-5 in a triumphant display of Rooneyball.

Unrelated, but I've just used an entire can of spray paint on a ladder that is being used as a prop for my wedding. The fumes are quite something.

Ghost of Clough Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 2 hours ago, EulogyForEvolution said: That is spot on ? Maybe Lawrence dropping slightly deeper. Did you build that through their heat maps from the last game? I give credit to Rooney & Co. for staying to see the job through, but I really wish they would just stick to a simple formation with wing play and overlapping full backs. The players we have available are just not good enough to be trading positions all game. It might have worked for Rooney in his career, but he had Paul Scholes and Ronaldo around him to make it work. It doesn't work with a team average second tier players. Heatmap was closer to this: Roos Stearman Davies Byrne Bird Lawrence Morrison Shinnie Ebosele Forsyth Kazim Carl Sagan and brady1993 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To get what Rooney is trying to do to work I think we'd need at least one of Stearman or Davies replaced by someone who is good on the ball (ideally both), Shinnie dropped with Bird moving to the left DM slot and a right footed DM coming in, Forsyth needs to be replaced by someone who is faster and arguably so does Byrne, the right sided attacking player could do with being a left footer and a gooald threat and we need someone up front who looks to spin in behind (probably). It's possibly that if all the deals come through then it could all work out as something like the following I think could effectively deploy the tactics Rooney is trying to make work: Roos Ebosele/Byrne Jagielka Mengi Buchanan Bielik/Garner Bird Sibley Lawrence Morrison Baldock/Stretton Whether or not we see this and whether it's the best way to go about it is a different story, although tactically I do think there is merit if the right personnel are in place.
