sage Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Smith could have provided that energy but is injured Again, the difference between Knight and Odurah is bigger than the difference between Knight and Sibley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His energy and aggression were sorely missed there especially in the 2nd half. Absolutely wasted at full back. Especially as he was at fault for the first goal.

nottingram Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Our best two players today were Knight, playing at RB, and McGoldrick who is probably who Knight would replace if he moved there. Sure Rosenior would’ve loved to move him there in the second half. Unfortunately we are not really in a position to carry a right back to bring on in his place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He went too early but the fella was 30 yards from goal and out wide putting a cross in from an angle. If anything, we needed to battle harder for the second ball, and Wildsmith needs to let Cashin know he's got things covered as the initial- pretty tame- effort was heading straight at him prior to Cashins multi foot ping pong. I agree he should be in midfield ahead of anyone else though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It did turn the game though. tinman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His biggest asset is his great engine he will run all day long, today we just ran out off legs in the middle of the pitch. kevinhectoring 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Knight in a 2, which he’d be if Sibley or McGoldrick played, would find all of the positive aspects of his play which we supposedly do not have in midfield currently, negated.

Ramos Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Whereas I do think knight is our strongest option at right back currently… that’s two home games in a row we have got completely overrun in midfield. Think we need knights energy in there - not sure what’s happening atm but bird cannot seem to get control of the game the way that his talent and physique suggests he should be doing. Maybe it’s the way we are set up and maybe Korey smith would have made a difference yesterday coming on if fit help us get some more control of the game. Think we need a way to combat teams who swarm hourihane and bird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BatRam Posted September 5, 2022 Author Share Posted September 5, 2022 Hmmm , i feel getting overun was more down to management not individuals. Knight cant play cam as he's been put there before. Hes more of a shinnie type player. But them positions are currently taken by bird and hourihane. I didnt get chance to watch the game as i was rehearsing. Did we atleast change formation to prevent being overrun or did he just change midfield players and they carried on getting overun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My opinion is it's completely down to the individuals. Bird and hourihane dont have the engine or speed like knight possesses and that allowed us to get overrun. Hourihane is renowned for having a wand of a left foot but on saturday it was anything but. I can only put this down to tired legs from being given the run around all game. It's honestly a no brainer for me. Knight has to go in midfield for Bird. Jimbo Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
